This report outlines the development milestones for a wire protection system designed to safeguard home security communication lines. The main objective is to prevent intrusion by creating an interfacing module compatible with existing protective cases. Key design milestones include receiving sample codes from Mr. Poston, ordering development boards, and collaborating on UL certification. Achievements so far include valuable insights from phone conferences and initial coding research. Upcoming tasks involve writing code for the PIC microcontroller, testing the protective case, and developing a comparator circuit.

Status Report # 1Home Security Wire Protection SystemRonald, Robert, Orlando, JaimeAn interfacing module to communicate with previously designed protective case.
Overall Need and Design Milestones • OVERALL NEED: To protect the communication lines of any home security system preventing intrusion. • DESIGN MILESTONES: Develop Detailed Schematics for interface (On going) Receive sample code and sample products from Mr. Poston (Mid February) Order a Development Board for PIC Microcontroller so as not to waste time manufacturing our own ( 1/29/09) Meet with Travis Poston for updates on UL certification and other business oriented happenings. (1/31/09)
Completed Tasks • Phone Conference with Mr. Poston where we received vital information concerning sample code and possible free products. (1/22/09) • Worked on Coding ideas as well as researched Modem interfacing and PIC Design (1/23/09) • Researched and discussed possible backup power supplys (1/22/09)
Pending/Ongoing Tasks • Develop Functional Code to link modem with microcontroller. • Test protective case in all possible environments it might encounter. • Develop Comparator circuit to trigger on a change in current received from a damaged or removed case.
Tasks to Begin Next Week • Begin writing code in C language for PIC (2/4/09) • Receive Information from Mr. Poston concerning UL guidelines (2/3/09) • Begin intensively testing case in multiple environments. (2/6/09)
