Fire Alarm

Using Arduino Project Guidance
1

Hi, i'm an Electronic Engineering Student and i'm thinking about creating a Fire Alarm which is based on using an Aurduino Uno I would also like to be able to add in a call station and sounder. I am clueless on how to go about starting this any help is very much appreciated on how to construct it and also the software behind programming it.

Thanks, Arduino Enthusiast

Two topics:

1/ The basic specification can be easily found in any commercial fire alarm system brochure or, alternatively, in any governement regulation on those systems.

2/ Be aware on trying to develop a commercial system. Concerns go much further than just knowing what the system has to do.

Almost always a sign that you need to back up and work through a couple of simpler projects first.

What sensors are you going to use?
What do you want to happen when an alarm is read (be specific)?

Have you done any research into using an Arduino? Any basic exercises?
What is your programming and electronics experience? IE, have you done any?

Have you read the teaching information available on this site? Look at the "Learning" tab.
