Take blueprints from picture
1y
Sure, please go ahead and upload the picture containing the blueprints. I can help you translate it into a project within Flux.
It appears there's an issue with the image upload. Please try re-uploading the picture containing the blueprints. Once I have the image, I'll help you extract the necessary information and integrate it into your Flux project.

Thank you for the image. This looks like the wiring diagram for the control panel of a security system. The diagram references several components and connections. I'll guide you on how to replicate this in Flux.
To start, we'll identify the main components and connections. Here are a few steps you can follow to begin:
  1. Identify the Components:
    • Power supply
    • Control panel
    • Various detection devices (e.g., smoke detectors)
    • Miscellaneous components such as resistors, diodes, and transistors.
  2. Create Component List in Flux:
    • List each unique component with appropriate designators, e.g., $R1$, $D1$, $Z1$, etc.
    • Power connections (e.g., +12V, GND)
  3. Establish Connections:
    • Connect wires as shown in the diagram between components.
Since the image contains a lot of information, let’s break it down step-by-step. Let's start with the main power supply and the main control panel.
Step 1: Power Supply and Main Control Panel
  1. Power Supply:
    • Assume +12V DC power supply.
  2. Main Control Panel:
    • Identify key pins for connecting various peripherals.
Step 2: Detection Devices and Other Components
Next, identify all the detection devices (e.g., smoke detectors, motion detectors) and their connections to the main control panel.
Step 3: Interconnecting Components
Finally, define how these components interconnect using wires.
Could you please provide more specifics or select one section of the diagram for us to start with? Let’s create a clear list of components and their initial connections.

Thanks for the clearer image! We can break down the components and their connections from the wiring diagram.
Primary Sections in the Wiring Diagram
  1. Power Supply Connections:
    • AC Power input and battery backup.
  2. Main Control Panel:
    • Various terminals for device connections.
  3. Detection Devices:
    • Smoke Detectors (2-wire and 4-wire types)
    • Other inputs (e.g., from external sensors)
Steps to Start with Flux Power Supply and Control Panel Setup
We will start with setting up the main power supply and control panel connections in your Flux project.
  1. Power Supply:
    • Component: AC to DC converter and battery.
    • Connections:
      • Connect the AC input to the power supply terminals.
      • Connect the DC output to power the Control Panel.
  2. Main Control Panel:
    • Add the Control Panel with terminals labeled for various connections.
Detection Devices
  1. 2-Wire Smoke Detectors:
    • Connect them to the appropriate terminals on the Control Panel.
  2. 4-Wire Smoke Detectors:
    • Similar to 2-wire detectors but with additional connections for powering the devices.
Example: Setting Up the Power Supply
Here’s how you can start setting up in Flux:
  1. Power Supply Setup:
    • Transformer (AC to DC):
      • Designator: T1
      • Connections:
        • Connect $T1:AC1$ and $T1:AC2$ to the AC input.
        • Connect $T1:DC+$ to the $+12V$ input of the Control Panel.
        • Connect $T1:DC-$ to the GND of the Control Panel.
    • Battery Backup:
      • Designator: BT1
      • Connections:
        • Connect $BT1:+$ to the Control Panel battery terminal.
        • Connect $BT1:-$ to the Control Panel ground.
  2. Control Panel Terminals:
    • Designator: CP1
    • Connections:
      • Terminal Connections as per your specific devices (e.g., Smoke Detectors).
Creating Flux Schematic
Let's start with the basic Power Supply setup:
  • Add a Transformer or AC to DC Converter.
