The Door Lock System 2<br />

You can make your Door Lock System from the first Door Lock System<br />

activity more secure.<br />

Set up the door lock system as shown on pages 12-14 in the Building Booklet.<br />

Make sure the lamp is attached to port A, the motor is attached to port B and<br />

the light sensor is attached to port 2.<br />

Load the ROBOLAB software. Select Inventor Level 4.<br />

The Light Sensor Fork icon compares the current light level input<br />

by the sensor to a set value.The default value is 55. If the current light level<br />

is above that value, one task is run. If the light level is equal or below that<br />

value, a different task is run.<br />

Create a program using Light Sensor Forks to check for the range above and<br />

below the grey, red or white key card.To start, check all the light sensor values<br />

using the View in the RCX display.<br />

White<br />

Red<br />

Blue<br />

Grey<br />

Using the light sensor ranges above, decide which key you want to use to<br />

unlock the door.Then create your program.<br />

Download and test it by trying all the keys in the lock. Is there only one that<br />

opens the door? If not, revise the program to use a narrower range of values.
