Hi guys thanx for the great site!!
I need some help on a project i want to build but don't really have the knowledge to do it. Its basically a 4 door automated system. Let me explain...
You have 2 doors in and 2 doors out. First door at entrance side is open until you get inside then it closes behind you and 2nd door opens, Same on exit side,
workes with maglocks.
It needs to have a control panel with a rotary switch that can turn for example...
Bank open. Door 1 open and door 2 closed same on exit side door 1 open door 2 closed.
Bank closed. Door 1and 2 closed. It has a extra button for door 1 which is staff entry, the exit side has to be normal open.
Bank locked. All 4 doors are locked but has a button on panel for last exit and key switch on outside for entrance again.
Override. All 4 doors are opened.
It must be a 12v system. Im sorted on the psu side so only need some suggestions on how to build the control unit for the door.
The system we are using at the moment has a mplc and IR beams but gives alot of problems so i want to build something basic and cheap to replace it. If anyone have circuit or diagram i might be able to use please let me know.
If you need any info or pictures on how it should operate let me know.
Thanx a lot
