Dragonfruit Team Meeting - September 26, 2016
Attended: Keane, Kevin, Tyler, Kaeo
Updates
- Printed Housing over the weekend
- Still need to print the solar panel parts
- Need screws in order to launch
- Debugging Board
- board does not program
- tried to switch to a 8MHz clock in order to match the current firmware bootlegger, but it was unsuccessful
- 8MHz clock also increased current draw from power source
September 29, 2016 update:
- Debugging Board
- Hooked up Dragon Fruit Version 2 to a battery and solar panel to measure voltage readings.
- Noise problem still occurred when connecting the battery and solar panel.
- Initially thought noise problem came from XBEE, so we took the XBEE off of the board. But noise problem still persisted.
- Noise problem might not be from XBEE, but sound increases when XBEE is plugged in. Could be due to additional resistances.
Problems
- Board cannot program
- Screeching still a problem
Goals for this week
- Print rest of housing
- Meet with Firmware and get board programmed
- Work on solving screeching problem
Reminders
- Remind Allie that Dragon fruit code should be similar to Cranberry
- Need to use a different bootloader for 16MHz
