WHAT IS IT?
  A complete IoT access-control project you can run in Proteus: a Raspberry Pi 5 opens a door for the RFID cards it
  knows, refuses the others, and keeps a log that you read - and manage - from a laptop or a phone.
    * MFRC522 RFID reader (MFRC522ADVTEP) on SPI0: SDA = CE0 (GPIO8), SCK GPIO11, MOSI GPIO10, MISO GPIO9, RST GPIO25,
      3.3 V. Four cards in its pop-up: A3F1429C (Ali) and 5B7E21D0 (Sara) are users; C4D2E8F7 (a visitor) and
      9E06B315 (a spare) are not (properties UID1 - UID4).
    * I2C LCD 16x2 (I2CLCD16X2BLUEADVTEP, PCF8574 backpack at 0x27) on I2C1 (SDA GPIO2, SCL GPIO3), 5 V.
    * 1-channel relay module (RELAY1ADVTEP): IN on GPIO17 (active LOW), 5 V; it switches the 12 V push-pull
      solenoid (SOLENOID12VTEP), the door's bolt: +12V on NO, the solenoid on COM. Open for 3 s on a good card.
    * Green LED on GPIO22 (granted), red LED on GPIO27 (denied), each through 220 ohm.
    * RASPBERRY PI 5 (PI1) runs door_access.py on Ethernet at 192.168.1.51; the dashboard is on port 8000.
    * Laptop WiFi Monitor (PC1) and Mobile WiFi Monitor (MOB1) open http://192.168.1.51:8000/.
  The program reads the reader's registers itself with spidev (REQA, then anticollision for the 4-byte UID) and
  drives the LCD's HD44780 in 4-bit mode through the PCF8574 with lgpio. Its pages:
    /            the dashboard: the door, the last card, the users and the log (newest first)
    /open        unlock the door for 3 s from the page
    /lockdown    no card opens the door until it is pressed again (the page can still open it)
    /enroll      add the last unknown card as a new user;  /remove  remove the last card's user
    /data        the users and the log as JSON

TEST STATUS
  Tested in Proteus 8 Professional on Windows 11, the run that made the tutorial's screenshots:
    * eth0 and the server up within 2 s of simulation; the reader's VersionReg 0x92 over SPI at 1.00 MHz; the LCD
      shows "Door locked / Scan your card".
    * Ali's card (Tap): GRANTED - the LCD "Door OPEN / Welcome Ali", the relay on, the solenoid pulled in, the green
      LED on, all for 3 s; then locked again.
    * The visitor's card: DENIED - the LCD "ACCESS DENIED / Card C4D2E8F7" and the red LED for 1 s.
    * ADD LAST CARD from the phone: C4D2E8F7 enrolled as "User 3"; the same card again: GRANTED.
    * LOCKDOWN from the laptop: Sara's card DENIED (lockdown); OPEN DOOR from the phone still opened the door;
      LOCKDOWN off again from the laptop. Every event in the log on the page and in the Pi's terminal.
  40 s of simulation took about 5 minutes on our PC with all the captures.

INSTALLATION
  1. Close Proteus. Extract the WHOLE zip file, for example to your Desktop.
  2. Copy the files from "Proteus Library Files" into the LIBRARY folder of Proteus, for example
     C:\Program Files (x86)\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 8 Professional\LIBRARY
  3. Copy everything in "Proteus Model Files" - the DLL files AND the TEPPi folder - into the MODELS folder
     (next to LIBRARY). TEPPi holds the Python 3.11 that the Raspberry Pi board runs and our TEP Pi runtime.
  4. Start Proteus. Press P in the schematic and search for RASPBERRY PI 5, MFRC522ADVTEP or I2CLCD16X2BLUEADVTEP to
     check that the parts are there.

RUN THE SIMULATION
  1. Open "Proteus Simulation\Pi-5-RFID-Door-Access.pdsprj". Keep door_access.py and the DLL files beside it.
  2. Press Play. The Pi's terminal runs door_access.py; the LCD says "Door locked - Scan your card".
  3. Open the Laptop WiFi Monitor (PC1) or the Mobile WiFi Monitor (MOB1) and press Go.
  4. Click the RFID reader for its pop-up and press Tap on a card: CARD 1 (Ali) opens the door for 3 s; CARD 3
     (the visitor) is refused.
  5. On the page: ADD LAST CARD enrols the last refused card; LOCKDOWN refuses every card; OPEN DOOR opens it
     from the page. Press Refresh to update the page.

PROPERTIES USED IN THIS PROJECT
  PI1 RASPBERRY PI 5   PROGRAM=door_access.py, ETHERNET=IN (192.168.1.51)
  U1 MFRC522ADVTEP     UID1=A3F1429C, UID2=5B7E21D0, UID3=C4D2E8F7, UID4=9E06B315 (four MIFARE Classic 1K cards)
  LCD1 I2CLCD16X2...   ADDRESS=0x27
  RLY1, L1, D1, D2     (no changes)
  PC1, MOB1            HOMEPAGE=http://192.168.1.51:8000/

TROUBLESHOOTING
  * The terminal cannot start Python: the TEPPi folder is not in MODELS (step 3 of INSTALLATION), or an older one.
  * "MFRC522 VersionReg 0x00": the SPI wires are not on SPI0, or SDA is not on CE0 (GPIO8).
  * The LCD stays blank: its address is not 0x27, or SDA / SCL are swapped.
  * A card does nothing: it is tapped for 0.5 s; the program reads ten times a second - tap again or use Hold.
  * The door does not open for a known card: LOCKDOWN is on (the page says so).

LICENCES
  * The project, the program, the parts (LIB files) and the models (DLL files) are made by The Engineering
    Projects and are free for learning and for your own projects. The models use only standard Windows libraries.
    The C++ source code of the models is not included; the source code is not included for any model.
  * TEPPi\python is the Python 3.11 Windows embeddable package (Python Software Foundation License); TEPPi\runtime
    holds our TEP Pi runtime with gpiozero and colorzero (BSD licences) - their licence files are inside the folders.
  * Proteus is a product of Labcenter Electronics and is not included. Raspberry Pi, MIFARE and MFRC522 are names of
    their owners; this project is not made or endorsed by them.

VERSION
  V1.0 - the first release of the project.
