    Automate ceiling flap

    Hello guys I will start off describing what I'm trying to do.

    I have a ceiling mirror flap for a projector, the projector sits on top
    of this unit within the ceiling void and has two mirrors one which is fixed and
    the other on a movable flap that is flush when in the up/off position.

    Currently this is a manual activated unit via a simple push switch.
    This simply switches 240V mains for a second or two. If the unit is down this pulse closes it and visa versa.

    Here is the question.

    I would like a unit that senses the projector current for ON/OFF that will pulse a relay for a second or two.
    I am thinking of using a Xantech CSM1 Current sensor module but need an extra bit that will pulse 240V
    I could design one but would prefer an off the shelf solution. Any Ideas?

    Thank you in advance
