Abstract :
At present, various switch control system technology is introduced, where a control system plays an important role. In heavy industry, a lot of instrumentation needs to be controlled and this will contribute in increasing wire harness between instrumentation and control terminal. This paper will discuss about an application of wireless communication to minimize the use of wire harness in industries. In this project, ZigBee will be used as a wireless device to replace existing wired communication system. By using this system, the process of installation is easier and it is also cheaper for installation and maintenance process.
