I purchased an Arnuino Uno and the ethernet shield.
The other day, I ordered:
(2) 30A SCT-013-030 Non-invasive AC current sensor Split Core Current Transformer
(1) Mini MQ4 MQ-4 High Sensitivity Gas Sensor natgas Sensor module for Arduino
(3) New DHT11 Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor Module for arduino
I am building this to go into my utility room. The idea is to monitor the current on the washer/dryer to determine whether or not they are running, measure the gas levels in the room (the furnace and hot water heater are in there) and measure the temperature in the room along with the crawlspace below and the family room located right next to the utility room (I will run wires through the floor and wall, respectively).
I think I will need resistors for this? Will the code to measure the line inputs for these reside on the Arduino or will the Arduino simply act as the gateway here? I'd like to get an understanding of how much programming (if any) will be needed. I'm going to pull a CAT5 line from my media closet to the utility room for the network connection.
Any help you can offer will be greatly assisted!
