THE DESIGN AND INNOVATION OF THE E.M.M by Antonio Chatzitheocharis

CONTENTS Scope Objectives Background Research Concept Proposal Prototype Working Principals Marketing Business Plan

Scope Produce a device that reports for a malfunction in the elevator installation -Based on the flexibility of the internet in transferring data signals -Based on the low cost of the current semiconductor technology -Based on experience from this sector

Objectives Examine the existing technology Apply changes or modifications Examine compatibility Innovate the concept

Elevator System

Elevator Electrics

Malfunctions

Closed Loop Circuits

Modems The ASCII code for “a” letter is binary USART sends the code to RS-232 port Receive the bits and transfers them through the internet 56K modems have a transfer rate 48K

DNS & Active Interface All network machines use names called IP addresses to refer to one another. Every time a domain name is used, the Internet's domain name servers (DNS) are initiated Monitoring programs are the IPSentry Network Monitoring Software, Nagios, Nimbus and Apache
