Dragonfruit Team Meeting - December 2nd, 2016
Attended: Keane, Kevin, Tyler
Updates
- Board Deployed but complications arose
- Board randomly stopped transmitting
- High winds blew box off of its mount
- Board currently inside SCEL and now debugging
- Board 5 fully populated
- charging chip not fully soldered on
- LED not lighting up with solar panel
Problems
- XBee stops transmitting even while supplied with 3.1V
- Sometimes because of movement
- Sometimes when moved a lot, still transmits perfectly
- Sometimes stops transmitting when some pins are touched, but not all the time
- XBee definitely stops transmitting when power is shorted to ground even for a very short time
Goals for this week
- Draft new PCB with GPS
- get rid of led debug lights on sensor board
- Better solder charging circuit and MCU
