Abstract:The modernization in electronics and Embedded systems has made dramatic change in world.
This systems are broadly used in automation, data monitoring, process control, remote jumbo display,
etc. These products are manufactured by various companies. These companies have installed their
products at various location as per their client's necessity. Controller based application products are
manufactured by particular manufacturer and installed its clients company, which may be anywhere in
the world. There is a serious problem when these manufacturers have to change the software of the
microcontroller based product at remote location site, then support team of product manufacturer need to
send one man to that location for changing the program. We have developed a system which have the
program downloading facility from remote location for serially programmable microcontrollers. This
system will be kept at that location. This system is connected to Internet and HEX file of controller will be
changed in remote application unit.
Keywords:Rabbit 3000 Micro Controller, Max 232, 16X2 LCD, Power Supply, Application unit using
ARM7 or 89V51RD2 Micro Controller, MCP2551 CAN controller, MCP2550 Transceiver, Internet
Connection with router and modem etc.
INTRODUCTION
Remote Automation Programming (also known as online Automation Programming, remote workbench) uses
telecommunication system to remotely conduct automation programming, at the physical location of the automation
application. Remote Automation Programming allows users to perform tasks or change the task of the automated equipment by
changing its programming, over the Internet without being near to the actual equipment. This facility provides an environment
for remote users to do many automation tasks while using different controllers together with several types of sensors, actuators
and industrial communication networks.
The physical architecture of remote automation programming is designed for an easy and convenient up gradation,
which converts automated equipment into a highly flexible and versatile tool which is able to do the required work. With the
help of this remote automation programming technique we are able to upgrade system and able to remove the bugs from the
automated equipment for the improvements in the automated system. Here, remote automation programming system uses the
networking part which is the interface between internet and the automation equipment
Remote automation programming system consists of the client which produces the hex file of the program which we
want to burn on the application. Remote user is connected to Rabbit processer unit through internet. Rabbit processer unit is
connected to the automation application. VB program is used to access processer unit which is connected to the automation
application. This VB program gives the information about the automation application. Automation programming codes is
written in programming tool, which on compilation generates hex file. Hex file is generated for desired automation
application. Hex file generated is first tested for the desired application. VB program has the option for resetting automation
application which is required for burning hex file on target application. On resetting application unit hex file is send on the
internet. Hex file will be received at processor unit.

PROPOSED SYSTEM
Figure1. Block Diagram of System
In the proposed system, first of all the requirement of application is considered. And as per the required task program
codes is changed. Program codes will be written for required task in programming tool at client pc. The hex file generated after
compilation it will be tested for required application. After testing it for required task hex file will send through the internet.
Clint at remote location access the rabbit processer controlling assembly throw VB program with the use of VB program
application. On the VB program there will be interface for controlling application controller for burning codes on it. The
options will be program mode and reset mode.
1.CLIENT UNIT
In this system programmer will writing a program codes for automation application. Generated hex file will be sent on
internet through Visual Basics. Programmer will communicate through VB program with help of rabbit processer assembly IP
address. VB program will have options for controlling automation application.
2.CONTROLLING UNIT
In this system rabbit processer assembly used to perform all the tasks. The Rabbit controllers are having several
powerful design features. Rabbit controllers are very robust to EMI emission form industries and regulatory radiofrequency
emissions tests. The Rabbit is having low electromagnetic interference (EMI), again it have a high-performance
microprocessor and is designed specifically for embedded systems, control system, networking and communications [6].
It is used for networking. It acts as gateway between application and internet. Client at remote location do
programming of desired task and generate hex file. Then through internet client gets connected to controlling assembly through
networking and send hex file to it. Hex file received at controlling unit is ready to burn on the automation application. Hex file
received is loaded in to application serially. Controlling circuitry will interfaced with Rabbit processer assembly. Controlling
circuitry controls operation of program mode/reset mode for burning program on application..
3.AUTOMATION APPLICATION UNIT
Third part will be automation application part. Application will be interfaced with rabbit processer assembly.
Controlling circuitry also interfaced with rabbit processer for controlling operation of serially loading program in to the
application. Automation application will communicate with rabbit processer through MAX232 logic converter
HARDWARE IMPLEMENTATION
Rabbit Processor based controlling board, this controlling board acts as the interface between the controllers based
automation machine and the internet.
Rabbit module used have specifications,The Rabbit 3000 which work at frequency of 55.5 MHz, it supports Compact
code and it size may be upto 6 MB. Operating voltages of the rabbit controller is a 1.8 V to 3.6 V, Faster response to real-time
embedded application is due to Four levels of interrupt priority. CAN communication is used in application unit in between
89v51 microcontroller and PIC 16F87x.

CAN controller and CAN transreciver is used for the DATA transfer. MAX232 is for the logic level converter.
Figure2. Hardware Required For The Proposed System
SOFTWARE IMPLEMENTATION
Keil v3 is used for the programming of the controller, To write code for the Rabbit controller Dynamic C is used. VB
programming is done for developing the Windows application. For the loading the program in microcontroller we required
program loader, here we use flash magic software for the system which is at remote location. The windows socket
programming (WINSOC) is required to send the data generated by the program loader. The data generated by the program
loader is not in to TCP/IP format, by the use of WINSOC data can be sent on TCP/IP network. With the help of IP address
technician gets connected to the Rabbit Processor Based controlling board.
Figure 3:- VB based Windows application on remote PC
RESULTS
The parameters such as level and temperature can be observed in VB based windows application program at remote PC.
Figure4:- Different parameters observed at remote location.
After completion of the HEX file loading process the Display which is present at the site where actual application is present.

FUTURE SCOPE
In the future scope of this system we can introduce addition of the work which can find the bugs in the microcontroller
based application software and change only that part of the code.
In the future scope we have to work on the time delay. This Time delay is when we have sent the file from remote
location to the actually time that, program gets changed in the microcontroller based application.
We have to work on the system to form real time systems which can be used for the faster operation to change the large
programme file of the real time application.
CONCLUSION
Required parameters can be observed on remote PC with the help of VB windows application.
Time required to download the 16k HEX file in the microcontroller is 3 min 27sec when the net speed is 512kbps.
with the help of increase in internet speed from 512kbps to 3mbps, time required to load HEX file can be reduced
