Background

From time past until present, security locks usually includes mechanical devices made of forged
metal i.e. simple lock and bolt, the door chain, pin tumbler lock, the jam lock and padlock etc.
( manual process which involves inserting a key into a bolt and physically moving the lockingmechanism.) Other recently developed security devices are pass word based digital door lock

system it is own disadvantage. It cant controlled from anywhere. It is a low range circuit, i.e. it
is not possible to operate the circuit remotely. Because of this reason led to

design and

construction of a DTMF based door open/ lock system that can be controlled from anywhere in
the world just by using a cell phone.
Problem statement
In this project, the DC Fan is controlled by a mobile phone that makes a call to the mobile phone
attached to the device. In the course of a call, if any button is pressed, a tone corresponding to the
button pressed is heard at the other end of the call. This tone is called dual-tone multiple-frequency
(DTMF) tone. The mobile that makes a call to the mobile phone stacked in the DTMF based DC Fan
Controller acts as a remote.
The main achievement of this project is to control the DC Fan attached with the
DTMF Based DC Fan Controller through the wireless link. The normal wireless link
has the limitation of the limited range as well as the high susceptibility of the
interfaces. To remove the problem of limited range and the possibility of the
interfaces we are going to use the GSM i.e. global system of mobile.
