Meeting Minutes March 21, 2017
attended: Isaiah, Kayla
Updates
Slain the spaghetti monster
Replaced wires to make our board easier on the eyes
Doing so somehow fixed our problem. Sending and receiving now works without errors running on 3.3V
Able to send and receive packets from board to board
Added 3rd xbee, using one to send packet, one to route, and one to receive
Tried to add 4th xbee had problems sending and receiving packets
Meeting Minutes March 23, 2017
attended: Isaiah, Kayla
Updates
Updated gantt chart
Pushed back PCB design and fabrication due to changing focus on networking
Will attempt to finish schematic over spring break
Notes
Xbee computer to computer
Router to coordinator worked
coordinator to router did not work (coordinator sent packet to itself)
router to router did not work
Arduino to breadboard to computer
Arduino sends packet every 5 sec to breadboard
Breadboard receives packet, reads it, repackages, send to computer
Addresses of xbees are hard coded
Tested
Coordinator to router to router worked
Router to coordinator to router worked
Router to router to router worked
When setting PAN ID, make sure to refresh everything in the networking tab
Programming the arduino
Make sure correct arduino board is selected
Make sure correct port is selected
Make sure xbee shield is in Dline
Programming the breadboard
Make sure arduino pro or pro mini is selected (the one used to bootload the atmega)
Make sure correct port is selected
Make sure Tx and Rx pins aren't connected to anything
To Do
Make schematic for bumblebee box
Range testing
“Goal is Bang → BAM” -Kaeo
Test “Bang → Boom then Boom → BAM” -Kaeo
Go through buildings and trees
Start final paper
