1.5.2 Coding Breakdown
Most of the coding for the HVAC control system will take place during the second
semester of the project, but the group deemed it appropriate to split up the
coding responsibilities as early as possible so each member could begin
research on their specific portion and coding language. There will be three main
parts of the system that require programming. First, the remote sensing unit
microcontroller will require coding. This is probably the simplest of the programs
to write. The remote sensing unit microcontroller is only required to receive a
binary number from the temperature and relative humidity sensor as an input,
and reproduce this same binary number to the ZigBee wireless chip so that the
information can be sent to the main control unit. The main microcontroller is the
portion of the system that is going to require the most programming. The main
