Introduction
As we know that in any industry , the system easily monitoring and controlling is first requirements . For that we design a system which is wirelessly monitoring industrial parameters such as voltage fluctuations and power failure condition using zigbee . If voltage increase or decrease on certain value than device automatic off.
It also monitoring a circuit or connection are properly grounded or not. If not than red light will indicate and load will remain off (cut off) . Here we also control a speed a dc motor as per requirements with direction also by giving an input on laptop.
About dc motor summary speed control of dc motor many methods are available which are either be a
mechanical or electrical .for example armature control, field control, flux control method etc but this methods required large size hardware to implement. So for easy control of speed and the direction control of dc motor the wireless speed and direction control of dc motor by using zigbee is very much essential and economical to used. For variable ac voltage we can used a controlled rectifiers which are converted a variable ac voltage from fixed dc voltage. Recent development in the area of semiconductor technology have made faster ,very small size microprocessors and microcontroller are available at in much reduced cost and easy control.

Motor Control And Protection :
We have a solve the problem of DC Motor speed control as per requirements with direction control. And also Protection of Dc Motor. A speed control device is provided such that the speed of DC motors is controlled to remain constant with varying voltages supplied from a power source.
In DC motor control, it is general practice to supply a DC power signal to the motor armature and field windings and to control the direction of motor rotation by selectively reversing the polarity of the DC power signal supplied to the motor armature while maintaining the direction of current flow through the field winding constant. In general, the DC power supplied to the motor is derived by full wave rectifying an incoming AC signal and subsequently filtering and smoothing the full wave rectified signal.

DC MOTOR
DC motors requires a basic understanding of the design and operating characteristics of the various type available: the series motor, the shunt motor, and the compound motor. Each type has unique operating characteristics and applications.
The relationship between torque v/s speed and current is linear as shown left; as the load on a motor increases, speed will decrease. The graph pictured here represents the characteristics of a typical motor. As long as the motor is used in the area of high efficiency (as represented by the shaded area) long life and good performance can be expected. However, using the motor outside this range will result in high temperature rises and deterioration of motor parts. If voltage in continuous applied to a motor in a locked rotor condition, the motor will heat up and fail in a relatively short time. Therefore it is important that there is some form of protection against high temperature rises. A motor’s basic rating point is slightly lower than its maximum efficiency point. Load torque can be determined by measuring the current drawn when the motor is attached to a machine whose actual load value is known. We will select the most suitable motor for your application after receiving your information.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
LEDs are semiconductor devices or say type of diode. Like transistors, and other diodes, LEDs are made out of silicon. What makes an LED give off light are the small a mounts of chemical impurities that are added to the silicon, such as gallium, arsenide ,indium, and nitride.
When current passes through the LED, it emits photons as a byproduct. Normal light bulbs produce light by
heating a metal filament until it is white hot. LEDs produce photons directly and not via heat, they are far more efficient than incandescent bulbs.
Typical LED

LCD(Liquid Crystal Diode)
The most commonly used LCDs found in the market today are 1 Line, 2 Line or 4Line LCDs which have only one controller and support at most 80 characters, whereas LCDs supporting more than 80 characters make use of 2 HD44780 controllers. A part from displaying some simple static characters you can create animated text scripts and a lot more! Most LCDs with 1 controller has 14 Pins and 16 Pins (two extra pins are for back light LED connections). Pin description is shown in the table below. (We may also have 16 pins in 2 controllers refer to the datasheet for exact details).

Pin Descriptions
VCC : Digital supply voltage.
GND : Ground.
Port A (PA7..PA0) : Port A serves as the analog inputs to the A/D Converter. Port A also serves as an 8-bit bi-
directional I/O port, if the A/D Converter is not used. Port pins can provide internal pull-up resistors (selected
for each bit). The Port A output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source
capability. When pins PA0 to PA7 are used as inputs and are externally pulled low, they will source current if
the internal pull-up resistors are activated. The Port A pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active,
even if the clock is not running.
Port B (PB7..PB0) : Port B is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each
bit). The Port B output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability.
As inputs, Port B pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The
Port B pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.
Port C (PC7..PC0): Port C is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each
bit). The Port C output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink band source capability. As inputs, Port C pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The Port C pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running. If the JTAG interface is enabled, the pull-up resistors on pins PC5(TDI), PC3(TMS) and PC2(TCK) will be activated even if a reset occurs. The TD0 pin is tri-stated unless TAP states that shift out data are entered .
Port D (PD7..PD0) : Port D is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each
bit). The Port D output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability.
As inputs, Port D pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated .The Port D pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.
RESET :
Reset Input. A low level on this pin for longer than the minimum pulse length will generate a reset ,even if the
clock is not running .The minimum pulse length is given in Table 15 on page 35. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset .
XTAL1: Input to the inverting Oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.
XTAL2 : Output from the inverting Oscillator amplifier.
AVCC : AVCC is the supply voltage pin for Port A and the A/D Converter. It should be externally connected to
VCC, even if the ADC is not used. If the ADC is used, it should be connected to Vcc through a low-pass filter.
AREF : AREF is the analog reference pin for the A/D Converter.
Transformer
Transformer : Transformer is a static device, which transform electrical energy from one Form to another Form and without any change in Frequency.
Transformer is two type ; 1 : Step up transformer
2 : step-down transformers
we have a used a step-down transformers in over project . Step-up transformers increase voltage, step-down
transformers reduce voltage. Most power supplies use a step-down transformer to reduce the dangerously high voltage to a safer low voltage. The input coil is called the primary and the output coil is called the secondary. There is no electrical connection between the two coils; instead they are linked by an alternating magnetic field
created in the soft-iron core of the transformer. The two lines in the middle of the circuit symbol represent the
core. Transformers waste very little power so the power out is (almost) equal to the power in. Note that as
voltage is stepped down and current is stepped up.
Figure 7. Step-down transformer
Power supply of 5V &12V :
Whole circuitry work on +5V, +12V DC power supply of 230V AC is applied to the transformer. By using transformer, rectifier, filters, IC regulators, etc. we get the desired output.

RECTIFIER
• Rectifier is used to convert ac supply into dc supply. It is a circuit which converts AC to DC Output of a rectifier is not pure DC, it is pulsating DC.
• There are basically two types of rectifier
— Half wave rectifier
— Full wave rectifier
– Bridge rectifier
• We are using Bridge rectifier to get desired DC output voltage of +12V
