INTRODUCTION
HOME AUTOMATION USING LABVIEW
IMPORTANCE OF HOME AUTOMATIOMN
Automation reduces time, effort, and cost, whilst reducing manual errors, giving your business more
time to focus on your primary objectives. Repetitive tasks can be completed faster. Automating
processes ensures high quality results as each task is performed identically, without human error.

BENEFITS OF HOME AUTOMATION

 Lower operating costs.
 Improved worker safety.
 Reduced factory lead times.
 Faster ROI.
 Ability to be more competitive.
 Increased production output.
 Consistent and improved part production and quality.
 Smaller environmental footprint.

INTRODUCTION ABOUT LABVIEW:

LabVIEW can be used to help with your industrial automation needs divided into two main use
cases: (1) machine control and (2) machine monitoring. It can either be embedded as the core brains
for an OEM machine or piece of equipment, or bolted on to augment the core capabilities of the
equipment

“Home automation” refers to the automatic and electronic control of household features, activity, and
appliances. In simple terms, it means you can easily control the utilities and features of your home
via the Internet to make life more convenient and secure, and even spend less on household bills

The most common applications of home automation are lighting control, HVAC, outdoor lawn
irrigation, kitchen appliances, and security systems

Software Requirement:

 LABVIEW interface installed

EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:

 Thermometer as temperature sensor

 Vertical smooth
 Slide switch
 Greater or equal
 While loop
LABVIEW:
 Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench.
 It is a graphical development environment with built in functionality for data acquisition,
instrument control, measurement analysis, and data presentation.
 It gives you the flexibility of a powerful programming language.
 It delivers extensive acquisition, analysis, and presentation capabilities in a single
environment.

 PALETTS USED FOR VI
Fig-1: Selecting thermometer

A thermometer is an instrument that measures temperature. It can measure the temperature of a solid
such as food, a liquid such as water, or a gas such as air. The three most common units of
measurement for temperature are Celsius, Fahrenheit, and kelvin. The Celsius scale is part of the
metric system

Fig-2: Selecting square led

When comparing the luminous efficacy of square and flat panels to round panels, it is clear that
the square or flat panels have higher luminous efficacy. Choose from the hundreds of panel designs
available at Jaquar. However, the circular panel will, on average, outperform the LED lights in terms
of efficiency.

Fig-3: Creating vertical smooth

Use decorations to graphically group or separate front panel objects without affecting the
functionality of the VI. Decorations include objects such as boxes, lines, or arrows.

FIG 4: selecting slide switch

A slide switch is used to control an electrical circuit by using a sliding action to shift the switch from the OFF
position to the ON position.
.
FIG-5: selecting greater or equal operator

Returns TRUE if x is greater than or equal to y. Otherwise, this function returns FALSE. You can
change the comparison mode of this function.You can compare an array or cluster of a data type to a
scalar of the same data type and produce an array or cluster of Boolean values. The connector pane
displays the default data types for this polymorphic function

Fig-6: creating while loop

Repeats the code within its sub diagram until a specific condition occurs. A While Loop always
executes at least one time.

ALGORITHM & VI

1. Go to the "Front Panel" and press "Right Click" from your personal computer or laptop.

2. Now, go to the Controls-> Modern-> Numeric-> Thermometer.

3. Now, put the "Cursor" on the tank and press "Click" you can see that the thermometer changes
with each different click on the it.

4. Now go to the "Front Panel" and then go to the Controls-> Modern-> Numeric-> Vertical softer.

5. Place this block on the "Front Panel”.

6. Put the "Cursor" on the "Vertical softer", press click and then move up and down.

7. So now, you have selected both the thermometer and the vertical softer 

8. Now press "Ctril+T".

9. Now, since we want to control the temperature of the thermometer with the help of by adjusting it
at different positions.

10. now go to Boolean and select the square led.

11. take square led in up and down.

12. now take three led in the vertical strip.

13. change the led as fan ac fire alarm.

14. now go to comparison and take greater or equal operator.

15. connect thermometer and fan,ac,fire alarm through greater or equal operator.

16. connect led sensor and two boolens together.

CASE1:
If temperature is greater than 22 then turn on fan

CASE 2:
If temperature is greater
than 40 then turn on ac

CASE 3:
If temperature is greater than 55 then turn on fire alarm
