This document describes a project to control water level using an 8051 microcontroller. The system uses sensing electrodes in a water tank connected to an 8051 microcontroller to detect the water level. The microcontroller then displays the water level on a 16x2 LCD display. The program written for the 8051 uses port pins connected to sensing electrodes to determine the water level and display the appropriate text message on the LCD, such as "AT BOTTOM", "AT MIDDLE", etc.

Description:
As shown in block diagram, there are no. of blocks which contains sensing electrodes ,water
tank microcontroller 8051 and finally display unit such as 16*2 lcd display.

As shown in the circuit diagram there are four sensing electrodes are used to sense the
water level present in the water tank and one ground electrode is dipped in to the water tank ,when
water is at bottom level the electrode present at bottom sense the ground(as water is good
conductor of electricity) and microcontroller detects the level and displays it on lcd.

The sensing electrodes are connected at port pins P0.0 to P0.3,and lcd data bus is connected
to port 2,lcd control pins are connected to P3.5-RS,P3.6-RW,P3.7-En.

The water levels to be displayed on lcd are;

1. AT BOTTOM
2. AT MIDDLE
3. AT QUARTER
4. TANK FULL
