Hello,
So we are moving towards getting the radio tag door lock working and I know we have talked in the past about how to bridge the wire from the control unit on the wall to the lock on the door. The problem being that the door rolls up and there we need to somehow stop the wire getting tangled up or broken etc.
Well James asked me once about making a connector that would unplug/disconnect as we rolled the door up and connect again when rolled down.
At the time I said I though it would be to difficult and unreliable, well I have been thinking about it and now believe that it wouldn't really be that difficult.
So what you think guys, shall I come up with a design and make one or have you solved the wire bridging problem?

Well I guess that is a no to needing a cable bridging connector.
As far as the 12v bat and charger why not put it on wall that has door in it as I was planning to run a new ring main in and put a socket on that wall somewhere to the right of the door looking from the inside.
Also something we need is a light to come on when the door is opened as walking in currently you have to blunder across the room in the dark to find the light switch.
And someone is going to trip over something that someone else has left across the floor OUCH.
Maybe the Arduino could turn on a 12v light (big LED) for 15sec or so.

Morning all.
While we are on this subject of tracking people in PHS there is a matter that keeps popping up in my mind.
Given the nature of HS what if someone was to hurt themselves and not be able to make it to the door to call for help.
I ask as I was thinking of popping in to do some wiring last week and should the ladder slip and I am injured it could be a good few days before I was found. (Or for that matter anyone else who pops in to work on there project.)
Maybe something to implement is some kind of system that expects visitor to reset some alarm every hour or so.
Then if not reset it email/Texts other member with an alert.
Just a thought Ian
