We ran into an issue with the reset function on REV C not working, when reset is pressed, the BTLD Led does not blink three times. Therefore, we went through a process of checking components' tracing and function, we first notice that the reset button does not ground the circuit when it is pressed down, so we replaced a new reset button, which still didn't solve the issue. We would need to spend more time on this to figure out the reason why the reset Led doesn't blank and continue on figuring out why XBee only sends data when reset is pressed.

Another issue we ran into is the tracing REV CIV, we noticed that when we check the trace for individual components, it will light up the same LED, so we think there is a soldering issue, we will need to assemble another REV CIV to make sure if it is solder issue or trace issue that comes with the manufacturer.

We spent most of the time today trynna find a way to program ATMEGA 1284P either with FTDI or Arduino. We were able to find a zip file that we can download, which will let the Arduino IDE identify ATMega 1284P and choose ATMEGA 1284P as a microchip, but we weren't able to figure out how to do so.

Also, we spent some of our hours on completing our proposal presentation.
