Hello there, I am currently trying to work on my GCSE electronics circuit schematic using the program live wire. I am designing a safe alarm which will when the door is open at certain periods (ie overnight), then in conjunction with a PIC sending out a high pulse (maybe low) a reed switch will trigger a circuit. When the circuit is triggered (hopefully) it will use a monostable to delay before the output of the circuit (siren, lights from decade counter, and a pump to spray smart water). Then the siren, and lights will stay on indefinately, but the motor should go off after 3-5 seconds in order to not burn the motor/pump out. But when i engange both switch (reed and PIC) then the motor will only stay on as long as it takes for the capasitor to charge. I really am stuck, and I am running out of time. If anyone would could help me then that would great ![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
