Ok... looks like Im only going to be able to do 2 independent fan control circuits with 1 controller... the PIC16F876 only has 2 hardware PWM generators that run independently in the background without need for software generated PWM signals.... Oh well... I guess I could add another controller to generate the PWM signals for the other 2 fan circuits then send the duty cycle for each fan to it serially....
Maybe next version.

Ok Time for an update.
I had quite a bit of time to work on this project this past weekend, and I now have a working prototype in my development environment. I need to assemble everything onto a circuit board, and try it out in the projector.
I decided not to use the Hardware PWM on the controller for fan speed at this time, I may use it later on (in the next release)
The software was pretty easy to write, although a bit more complex than just waiting for a timer to expire/etc.
Basically in the 1st release the P-Brain has 5 states:
Unpowered - No power applied to the controller (unplugged)
Shutdown - Power applied, but in an off state
Booting - Powered on, and booting the projector
Running - Normal running mode
Shutting Down - Powering down the projector
The software moves through these various states depending upon inputs like the power button/motion detector/etc.
From the unpowered state, the only possibility is to transition to the shutdown state. In this state the brain waits for the power button to be pressed. If it detects a power button press, it transitions to the Booting state where it attempts to boot the projector. If the boot is successful, the controller enters the running state, where it begins to look for motion/etc. If the power button is pressed while in the running state, the controller enters the shuttingdown state, and shutsdown the projector, then enters the shutdown state.
Im setting the initial motion detection timeout to be 3 hours, so if the controller doesnt see any motion for 3 hours, it will shutdown. A warning beep sounds for 2 minutes before the shutdown will occur.
Im setting the initial Max Projector On Time to 6 hours... this means that no matter what, the projector will shutdown after 6 hours, unless someone physically hits the power button to make it stay alive... (Im thinking of incorporating a keep alive button instead of multiplexing this functionality on the power button)
During projector boot, the controller will start the fans, then waits for motion to be seen from the motion detector (motion detector test), once it detects that the motiondetector is working... it then energizes the lamp ballast using a 120v solidstate relay. It then uses a photoresistor to look for light coming from the projector lamp. If it sees light, it enters the running mode, if it doesnt see light, it goes Idle for a while, then tries to spark the lamp again. If it cant get the lamp lit within a specified timeout period (Lamp still too hot to spark/etc), it gives up, and shutsdown.
During shuttingdown mode, the controller turns off the lamp, and lets the fans continue to run for 40 seconds.
Maybe next weekend Ill be able to do my first "In Projector" tests, but so far all is working great in my development environment.

Sounds great Luca! Can't wait to try this out for myself. One thing though: do you think 40 sec is enough for the fans to be left on for? I know that at least on my friends rear PJ tv the fans run for at least a minute, maybe two (I'll double check on that).

Good question...
I arbitrarily picked 40 seconds. I think once its actually in the projector, and I can do real world tests Ill pick a real value. The aim is to cool the bulb off as fast as possible, so that It will start up again quickly if need be.
This first version will be pretty basic, just the main power control functions (Lamp/Fan/Motion Detector). I want to eliminate the jitters I get everytime I turn on my projector due to the fact that I may forget its on... fall asleep... leave the house... etc. In the next version I plan to add more sophistication... (Temp sensing, fan speed control, bulb life counter, etc) It would be cool to be able to lower the fan speed and only raise it if things get too hot...

I Think I may need to step up to a PIC16874 to get enough I/O (without adding additional hardware) to handle this thing. I still want to add an LCD, and at least a 6 key keypad.

muxing with keypress period
One thing you do have to take into account: You can't change states because of the number of times a button is pressed, since one "human press" may be seen by the microprocessor as hundreds. (As the contact is being made or broken.) So you have to debounce the button-press by requiring the input signal to remain in the pressed state for say 100 milliseconds. As long as you are doing that, why not also check for a much longer button-press? Then you can use a 100-2000 msec button-press for on/reset timeout, and a 2000+ msec button-press to begin the shutdown sequence.
The user would hold down the "on/off" button until the light went off, so he would have instant feedback that he pressed the button long enough.

Debouncing is built into the button press logic. The software will only detect one button press per button press.... even if the user holds down the button, or the button bounces.
The only problem I face is interpreting a button press within the context of the current state of the controller.
For example:
In the shutdown state.... the button press signifies: Enter the Booting State.
In the Booting state... the button press is ignored.
In the Running state... the button press signifies: Enter the Shutting Down state (start shutting the projector down)
In the Shutting down state... the button press is ignored.
I have realized though... that I need more states! For example... there is a Running Near Shutdown Because of No Motion Detected State... and a Running Near Shutdown Because of Max Time On Reached State.... I also need to determine what the button press means in each of these states.
In otherwords... if the projector is getting ready to shutdown because it hasnt detected any motion for 2 hours and 55 minutes... and you press the POWER button, that should reset the Motion Counter.
If the projector is getting ready to shutdown because it is nearing the Max Time On Timeout... and you press the power button, that should reset the Max Time On Counter AND the Motion Counter.
If the controller is just in the Normal Running mode... and you press the Power Button... the projector should shut down.

human factor issues
I think you are making the user interface too complex: In some states, pushing the button means "shut down". In other states it means "extend running time". So the user would have to know which state the projector was in before deciding to push the button. He would also have to remember what the button press does in that state. Another thing to think about: What if you need to visit the kitchen or bathroom near the end of the timeout period, but you want it to keep running? You would have to stand there and wait for it to change to the "timing out soon" state before you could push the button!
This is why I suggested one type of button press should always mean "shut down", and another type of button press should always mean "extend running time". You can implement that with two buttons, or one button using the button-down time.

Well when the controller is nearing a shutdown due to lack of motion detected (5 minutes before shutdown), it beeps 2 times in succession (beep beep.... beep beep... beep beep) it does this for the remaining 5 minutes of the timeout. When the projector is nearing shutdown due to Max Time On limit reached, it beeps 3 times in succession during the last 5 minutes of the count down. So all the user needs to remember is (2 beeps wave an arm to trigger the motion detector... 3 beeps, get up and hit the power button).
Everytime motion is detected the motion timeout counter gets reset, so you really have 3 hours since the last motion was detected before the projector will shut down, so getting up to go to kitchen should trigger the motion detector, and unless you spend 3 hours in the kitchen you shouldnt have anything to worry about.
Currently the Max Time On timeout is set to 6 hours Im thinking of changing the Near Max Time On beeps to start say 10 minutes before shutdown, and yes... if you went to the bathroom say 11 minutes before the max time on limit was reached, and spent 12 minutes in the bathroom, you would come back to a shutdown projector.
I added the Max Time On feature because someone made a comment "Well what if the dog keeps pacing back and forth triggering the motion detector, the projector could stay on for ever!" So with the Max Time On timeout even if this were the case (great dane pacing back and forth for days), the projector would shut down after 6 hours no matter how much motion is in the room unless someone physically pressed the power button.
Maybe what I will do is force the user to Press and Hold, the power button to shut down, and a quick press will reset the Max Time On counter, so if you were planning to say go to the store quickly for more beer... and didnt want to shut the projector down, you could give the power button a quick press before you left to ensure that the max time on timeout would not expire before you got back, but no matter what state the projector was in, Press and Hold on the power button causes shutdown (unless the projector is already shut down)
So basically the revised interface would be:
In shutdown/standby Press, or Press and Hold causes the controller to enter the Booting State
In booting state Press is ignored, Press and Hold causes the controller to enter the Shutting Down state
In Running state press resets the max time on counter (and the motion timeout counter), Press and Hold causes the controller to enter the Shutting down state (no matter whether the projector is near any timeouts)
In ShuttingDown state, press and Press and Hold are ignored.

sounds perfect
With those state transitions, press-and-hold always means "shut down". and press always means "on" (except during shutdown state when you can't turn the lamp back on immediately). I think that will be very easy for everyone to understand.
I don't worry about automatically shutting down, but I have a different problem with my projector: It just has a lamp switch and a fan switch, but you also have to turn on the video-to-vga converter box, the sound system, and the satellite receiver box (or select the DVD player). It all ends up being too many settings for my wife to want to bother with, so she just uses the standard TV. (And she is a Veterinarian, so she is not stupid.)
If I built a microprocessor-based master controller, I could then have one button for "turn everything on with satellite input", one button for "toggle between satellite & DVD player", and a third button for "turn everything off". The master controller could learn the remote controller sequences for each of the devices, and then use IR to drive them.

GO train riders can now get a credit if their train arrival is delayed by 15 minutes or more.

The new 15-minute service guarantee, which came into effect on Nov. 15, aims to improve GO Transit costumer service. Under the guarantee, riders will get a credit based on the fare paid.

For PRESTO card users, credits for late trips can be claimed online, at ticket kiosks or by speaking with a GO Transit customer service representative within seven days.

Single-rider ticket, day and group pass holders must claim credit vouchers from GO Transit costumer service representatives within 24 hours.

"When commuters take the GO train, they want peace of mind that their train is going to get to where they need to be – on time," said Bob Chiarelli, Ontario's Minister of Transportation. "GO Transit's new 15-minute service guarantee demonstrates how committed we are to getting riders to their destinations on time. Improving public transit encourages more people to leave their cars at home, reducing traffic congestion and keeping our air clean."

For more information on GO Transit's 15-minute guarantee, visit www.gotransit.ca.

Your Letter: Do illegals deserve more rights than us?
Has anyone watched the news lately? Well it probably would not matter if you did. This story (and video) was only on one network (so far, other than the Internet). Nancy Pelosi (third in command to our president) is promoting illegal immigration. I am not kidding nor am I exaggerating.
Nancy Pelosi said illegal immigrants are very patriotic because they are taking care of our country's future. If you don't want to believe me then you can watch the video on www.capsweb.org. She said this in support of Luis Gutierrez (congressman from Chicago) who is on a 17-day (taxpayer funded) tour of the country. The purpose of this tour is to "end the raids." He is talking about FBI raids to remove illegal aliens from the workplace. He even wrote thank you letters to people who came to the "meetings" saying: "I also want you to know that all the information that you have shared with us in writing today regarding yourself and family including your name, address, phone number and other relevant information is strictly confidential and will not be shared with any government agency." Isn't Gutierrez himself supposed to be part of a "government agency" that incidentally is supposed to be upholding the laws of this country?
If nothing else Gutierrez should at least pay for the paper and stamps he used for these letters instead of handing the bill to the taxpayer. I just love our government. What other government in the world would make every effort to make illegal aliens feel comfortable and safe while the doctor giving my son a sports physical (required for school sports) is required by law to ask me where I keep my guns in my own house? I wonder if he is required to ask that of illegal aliens? If so the illegal alien's information would probably be "strictly confidential and will not be shared with any government agencies." That way if an illegal alien is not storing his guns "properly" (or stockpiling them for a terrorist attack) he can feel safe knowing he's got Nancy Pelosi and Luis Gutierrez on his side while the Social Services are at my house taking my kids, disposing of my guns, and throwing me in jail all while cameras from every network in the country are rolling.

My battery died, tried to use code given by dealer, but it does not work. Help!
My battery died, tried to use code given by dealer, but it does not work. Help!
Same thing happened to me when I replaced my battery a week ago. A Radio Code number was written on the PPI (Pre Purchase Inspection) form that was WRONG.
Fortunately, there was other paperwork from the purchasing dealer that had the correct number.
Atwell "Buff" Haines
'06 AWD CR-V, 5 speed MT!
'07 Fit Sport, 5 speed MT!

To be old and wise, you must first be young and stupid.
Hidden Content
My understanding is that the dealer should be able to supply the code given the VIN number.
Many times that code will be on a sticker in the glove box or other areas. Do an online search.
BTW, what yr is your CRV?
PS: There are also instructions online on how to enter that code when you get it.
Just curious......I had some dead battery issues on my 2012 CRV and went through the computer reflash procedure ast week. But at the time, I was dreading the infamous "Enter Code" problem which fortunately did not happen --- this time. So just to be safe for any future problems, I went through my paperwork looking for the new vehicle Radio Theft Code sticker and determined that I never got one. Honda's help page states that in addition to the VIN, the device serial number would also be needed before they can supply you with the code. The problem is...how does one get the serial number of the device. Apparently the nav systems have no way of electronically displaying this info. Or does the security code issue even apply to the nav systems on the 2012 CRV?
On the inside of the front cover of my owners manual there is a sticker with two numbers printed on it, nothing else. The top number has 5 digits, the bottom number has 8 digits. Which number, if any, would likely be the radio code?
I plan storing the radio code in my iPhone in a note.

You should take your cat to your veterinarian for an examination and proper diagnosis of your cat's problem. A problem such as this can easily become life-threatening in an old cat and the sooner your vet diagnoses the problem and starts appropriate treatment, the better your cat's chances of making a full recovery.

Henrik Vibskov
Tags 9 questions, fashion week, label founders, show
In this quick interview of 9 questions, Lara talks to Henrik Vibskov about how he became a designer, his new collection and the largest Bodum in the Western world.
How and why did you become a designer?
It all happened accidently, I fancied this girl, who wanted to go to CSM and I was just bragging about that I was going there as well. I forgot about it for some weeks, but then I met her again and she asked "so when are you moving to London?" and I just went straight home, prepared a file over night, flew to London on the last day of application – and got in.
Had you been interested in fashion before?
I was into music and such when I was young… I was fascinated by the whole "identitet and atmosfaere" thing in the music scene, and fashion craftsmanship appeared later. It's a good umbrella, where I can fit all my interests, music, fine arts, performance.
What does fashion mean to you?
It doesn't make me sleepless.
Can you tell me about your new collection?
The new collection is called the Solar Donkey experiment and it's one of the very few collections, where I worked with a story. The thought of communicating and analogue communication is also very present in the concept of the installation and presentation of the collection. We used umbrellas because the communication aspect is more old school, like fire or smoke rings on top of a mountain. That's the donkey part, the slowness, the analogue. It almost looks like we're trying to communicate with the rest of the world with some kind of mechanical mobile installation.
Where do you find inspiration?
Basically people around me, I just walk the streets and see this and this and that.
Do you have any advice for young fashion designers?
It might sound neo-romantic, but you have to stay true to yourself. As a designer, you have to produce so crazy many things, and it only works if you listen to your heart.
Your favorite fashion designer?
I sell some of them in my shops… in Oslo and CPH.
You cannot live without?
Coffee. I own the largest Bodum of the Western world.
Henrik Vibskov in 5 years?
Wrinkly in Fiji islands, eating a lot of carrots and smoking some m…..f…… cigars.
Thank you!

!–Saxotech Paragraph Count: 13
SALISBURY — A 38-year-old woman is charged in the death of her 11-year-old daughter after running off the Salisbury bypass in her Jeep while allegedly impaired by drugs.
Tabitha Dobrzynski of New Kensington, Pa., is charged with negligent manslaughter by motor vehicle, life-threatening injury by motor vehicle — drugs, life-threatening injury by motor vehicle — controlled dangerous substance and CDS possession — not marijuana. She also faces six traffic charges, including four driving while impaired charges.
Maryland State Police responded to the single-vehicle accident on the southbound Route 13 Bypass at 2:38 p.m. Sunday.
Dobrzynski and the four passengers in her 2004 Jeep Wrangler — the victim and three others, who are also her children — were transported to Peninsula Regional Medical Center, according to Trooper First Class Mark Miller of the Salisbury barrack of the Maryland State Police. He said the passengers were three girls and one boy.
"Signs of impairment were observed," Miller said about Dobrzynski.
He said these signs of impairment were allegedly exhibited at the scene and at the hospital, but he doesn't know what kind of drugs she is suspected to have taken.
The victim, whose name has not been released, was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the vehicle Sunday, which overturned. Miller said an autopsy was being done on the body to determine a more precise cause of death. None of the vehicle's other occupants had any major injuries, he said.
The three children were released to their father Sunday night, Miller said. Dobrzynski was held on $35,000 bond at the Wicomico County Department of Corrections, a DOC records clerk said on Monday.
In 2011, Wicomico County saw two fatal crashes and 65 injury crashes of a total 147 crashes in which the driver was impaired by drugs or alcohol, according to data provided by Caryn Coyle, manager of communications for the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration.
Wicomico saw averages of four fatal crashes and 73 injury crashes of 182 crashes each year for impaired drivers, when taking into account MVA data from 2007-2011.
The state of Maryland saw an average of 167 fatal crashes and 2,822 injury crashes of 8,214 crashes each year for impaired drivers, looking at 2007-2011 MVA data. Averages have been rounded to the nearest full number.
Miller expressed how unfortunate it is when a child — or anyone — dies.
"I don't care how many you do, it's still a life," he said. "We're here to protect."

Dumb, I know, but it's broke and I need one. I don't believe in $50 + $10+/- shipping for it if I've seen previous listings for it for $30. Craigslist and eBay do not give me the results I'm looking for.
Not sure how this site's members deal with transactions, but I have Paypal.

Create your very own Kirrin IslandArticle by Keith Robinson
Every child wants their own island (not to mention adults), so why not create your own? Enid Blyton did! For this you'll need some sticky-back tape and two photographs, one of Corfe Castle and the other of the sea. Here are pictures I prepared earlier...
Everyone knows that Kirrin Island was based on Corfe Castle on the Isle of Purbeck, Dorset. Actually, technically speaking it's not an isle but a peninsula, and doesn't come close to resembling an island of any sort. But Enid Blyton, who was known to visit the area frequently, must have stared at that impressive castle ruin and let her imagination run wild, seeing nothing but a small lump of land sticking out the water with this castle on top. It became Kirrin Island, and has been re-created in TV shows and movies ever since—either using an island somewhere that resembles Blyton's visualization, or by using special effects...
