Arduino/ID-12 RFID door lock demo

[exceilence]

RJ-45 is only connector!!! )))  It is not cable! Cable is Ethernet-cable

@exceilence You sir are a douche bag. Thank you for pointing out the obvious. I only hope someone would not try to build this only to get confused by the RJ45 VS CAT V.

[pingywon]

Which enclosure? The black one inside or the gray one outside?

[kelondrio]

@pingywon I'd like to know about the gray one.

Thanks

[pingywon]

@kelondrio The gray box is from my local home improvement store. It is a "water proof" box for double electrical recepticals. I drilled a small hole for the LED and then filled the hole with clear silicone.

Hi,  Where did you buy this enclosure?

[Carlcox89]

Hi, what did you use to connect arduino to door strike ? Thanks!

[pingywon]

@Carlcox89 I used a custom PCB that I hand soldered. It included a ID/12 RFID reader. An Arduino microcontroller. and then a tri-color LED some resistors a transistor (to switch the door strike) and a zener diode to prevent flow back of the current after the door strike solenoid releases the strike.

I can be more specific if youd like, but that is the jist of it. Unfortunatly I am no electronics guru and the only schemetics that I have are chicken scrtach hand drawings of the process..........

[pingywon]

I did most of the process in my head. email me and I can discuss things in more detail and hopefully answer any questions you might have. pingywon at gmail dot com

@exceilence

Douchebag: "Someone who has surpassed the levels of jerk and asshole, however not yet reached fucker or motherfucker. Not to be confuzed with douche."

or

"An individual who has an over-inflated sense of self worth, compounded by a low level of intellegence, behaving ridiculously in front of colleagues with no sense of how moronic he appears. "

@Carlcox89 ummm wires? ...or maybe solder.

[pingywon]

Thanks man. It took some time to bring all the ideas together on this, but it was really worth it and alot of fun at the same time!

@pingywon do you have info that you can give me i would like to use this type of security to lock golf carts so only the proper users can drive them the system would have to be weather proof and run on 12 to 36 volts dc

Thanks

[pingywon]

@genescammell shoot me an email and i'll do my best to answer any questions you might have. pingywon @ gmail
