Guys,

I'm trying to build a garage door operator control system. 3-phase
motor, reversable via airial contactor, and overload protect together
with mechanism and senssors already in place.

I'm looking to implement this using an Atmel ATMega128 dev. board. Nice
enough product, with IO lines on headers and IC programming adapter for
the PC from vendor ..etc.

This is my first ATMega128 project, and I'm looking for fedback, similar
experiance, code sniplets ..etc.


Many Thanks,

Ahmad Ibrahim.

Why not start with an elevator or perhaps a passenger aircraft
autopilot?

some interesting projects here
http://online.uts.edu.au/bin/common...um&context=default&nav=discussion_board_entry

What about trying something simpler first ?

Like simple relay control from push button inputs.
This would give a good start then you could build on it.

What board atmel stk500 ?

or something more like Brian Dean's boards www.bdmicro.com ?

Did you try searching on google seem to be plenty
of projects using avr's for garage door controllers

This is from atmel for an irrigation controller
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/irrigation.pdf
was in the AVR applications journal worth getting copies of.
http://atmel.argussoft.ru/download/english.pdf/journal.pdf

Also do a search at circuitcellar .com lots of good stuff.
