home automation

sir,
is it necessary to have all the three switches connected to the circuit in order to perform home automation operation i.e. (i m interested in first just making led on or off and later msg part will be taken into account).
plz note that lcd has been connected according to the diagram

if you dont wanna use the keys, then pull up all the port pins connected to the keys...

can we recompile your given files to generate hex file using keil software or sdcc and match your hex file(to check any inadvertent error) ?

HOW DOES IT GET MESSAGE BACK FROM MICROCONTROLLER TO THE CLIENT SIDE(does it use haserver in the process) ??

another doubt has come

while compiling your given files to gen the hex file using sdcc compiler the following error was generated .plz tell
what is the problem? does the program has some error
plz suggest some rectification process if so?

C:\ALL\OUR PROJECT\imp documents\homeautomation>sdcc HA.c lcd.rel serial.rel strfunc.rel cmd.rel
In file included from HA.c:4:
lcd.h:41:6: warning: no newline at end of file
HA.c:52:1: warning: no newline at end of file
?ASlink-Error-Could not get 160 consecutive bytes in internal RAM for area DSEG.

HAserver just send the data back, thats all it does. I am 100% sure that the problem lies in your connection between PC and controller (serial connection)

Checking Serial connection:
1. Open Hyper Terminal and open com port with this configuration 9800 8-n-1

2. press key many times, you must get the default string.

if you are not getting this answer from your board..
Your connections are wrong !n

we do according to u .. but not getting the output as mentioned .. we have set the communication port as COM1 and Set the baudrate as 9600-8-n-1 but didnot get any acknowledgement . then we set 2400-8-n-1 and getting the unsual character it as the below output .. can u plz tell the solution soon.
i am sending u the snapshot of Hyper Terminal to ur personal message

Well i didnt get anything.. in the PM, but.. nothing will work on 2400 (thats why you are getting those nasty characters) coz the baud is 9600
Now please check if your caps are ok! i hope you did not burn anything while soldering. You might have seen the demo everything working fine.
