Magnetic Door Switch with Buzzer



  • Hello everybody,
    I hope someone can help me.
    I have connected a magnetic door switch sensor and a buzzer with Arduino.
    Now I would like that when you open the door switch the buzzer starts until the door switch is closed again.

    I have combined the Door/Window/Button Sketch with my buzzer-Sketch, but unfortunately starts the buzzer when the Arduino starts and when the door switch is closed again.
    I want the buzzer only starts when opening the switches and so long until the switch is closed again and will stop again.

    Please help me, thank you in advance

    I thnk it would be sufficient to add an if clause around the morse code stuff:

    if(value==HIGH){
      dash();
      dot();
      dash();
      dot();  
      delay(lPause-sPause); // Subtracts pause already taken
      dash();
      dash();
      dot();
      dash();
      delay(wPause-sPause); // Subtracts pause already taken
    }
    


  • Many thanks for your response !
    It works. 🙂
    But how can I change the code so that the morse code is played until the switch is closed again, because at the moment the morse code is played only once, when the switch is opened.



  • I have tried to solve this with INTERRUPT.
    But that does not work !

    #define INTERRUPT BUTTON_PIN-3
    

    and

    if (value==HIGH) {
           
      dash();
      dot();
      dash();
      dot();  
      delay(lPause-sPause); // Subtracts pause already taken
      dash();
      dash();
      dot();
      dash();
      delay(wPause-sPause); // Subtracts pause already taken
    
      gw.sleep(INTERRUPT,BUTTON_PIN-3, CHANGE);
    
        }
    

  • Mod

    Why use gw.sleep at all? You want to Arduino to stay awake so it can continue playing, right?

    Side note: Don't use BUTTON_PIN-3, use digitalPinToInterrupt(BUTTON_PIN). That makes the code easier to follow and avoids the risk of forgetting to update one definition but not the other.



  • you are absolutely right.
    I changed the code as follows:

    with HIGH the morse signal is played only once, therefore changed to LOW !

    // Activate internal pull-up
      
       // DigitalWrite (BUTTON_PIN, HIGH);
    
       digitalWrite (BUTTON_PIN, LOW);
    
    
    if (value == HIGH) {
    
       dash ();
       dot ();
       dash ();
       dot ();
       delay (lPause-sPause); // Subtracts break already taken
       dash ();
       dash ();
       dot ();
       dash ();
       delay (wPause-sPause); // Subtracts break already taken
    
       attachInterrupt (digitalPinToInterrupt (BUTTON_PIN), buzzer_stop, CHANGE);
             
         }
    
    
    void buzzer_stop() {
    digitalWrite(buzzPin, HIGH); // Tone OFF
    return;
    }
    
    void dot(){
    digitalWrite(buzzPin, LOW); // Tone ON
    delay(dotL); // Tone length
    digitalWrite(buzzPin, HIGH); // Tone OFF
    delay(sPause); // Symbol pause
    return;
    }
    
    void dash(){
    digitalWrite(buzzPin, LOW); // Tone ON
    delay(dashL); // Tone length
    digitalWrite(buzzPin, HIGH); // Tone OFF
    delay(sPause); // Symbol pause
    return;
    }
    
    
    
    

    But now works with a small error :
    the buzzer makes mose signal in an endless loop, however it is very quiet even though it actually is very noisy ?!



  • I found the mistake, now it's really loud 🙂

    Thank you so much.



  • @knipex Hi can you please post your working script?? I want the same functionality too. Thanks


  • Mod

    @knipex what was the mistake?
