COM port controlled plug timer

Miscellaneous Forums/Blitz Showcase/COM port controlled plug timer

I wrote a telnet based timer that has 2*220VAC and 1*12VDC outlets. The whole thing is on an old Pentium I wich has 3 LEDs in front and 3 outlets plus 1 plug in the back.

Program:


Circuit board:


Sounds like a lot of fun. So now you can switch a 220V device on using telnet?

looks very interesting, am planning to try and communicate with my palm via a 16F84A I've programmed using IR. It'll be done using: http://www.sirpic.com/

Yes, I can control 2*220VAC (+ 1*12VDC molex) via telnet, soon i'll create a video of the aparatus in action. The 2 bigger relays (220VAC) are 1200W so i can make coffee automagically for myself at the time i sleep. Lazy, i know :P

Does that mean you want me to hack your coffee machine? :P

Oh, BTW, coffee... (zombie mode on) ...must...drink...coffee...

I wonder if you'd be the first one ever to hack a coffe machine :P

cool, my pic16f84A is still a work in progress, bought a oscilloscope and proved that the PIC is attempting to drive my IR LEDs, THE palm rex's garbage, need to do fault analysis.

Man uses networked 'crazy' toaster to hack PC:

It's pretty good. I got bery lost though. And found a bug, I ran infront of the mine truck as it was coming towards me and ended up getting stuck under it, there was no way at all of getting out from under it.

Hands up if you're drunk.

Cool project BTW!

So is this done in blitz then? Id love to get my hands on some sample code!
