| Date | Hours | Work Done | Problems to Solve - (Date completed) |
| 12/8/2015 | 1.5 | - Completed Validation Exercises
- Placed device in river and left overnight
| - sleep the Stalker between readings
- calibrate the sensors
- design new 3D model for enclosure
|
| 12/1/2015 | 2 | - Fixed Date and time on the board
- Continued working on HTTP
- Completed walkthrough with Professor Purtilo
| - Need to seal box up and place in water - (12/8)
- Adjust format of data for bulk upload - (12/5)
- Continue trying to make HTTP work - (12/5)
|
| 11/29 | ~5 | - Assembled components into box
- Continued working to get HTTP requests working
| - HTTP requests not working - (12/5 - Kevin got it working, great job!)
|
| 11/25 | ~7 | - Constructed a new box large enough to fit all of our components
- Acquired resources to build a floatation apparatus for the device
- Continued working to get the 3G shield to communicate with the stalker
| - Alternatives to using the stalker if 3G shield won't communicate with it - (11/25 - Setting in arduino IDE was causing issue)
- How to power the Uno if the stalker won't work - (11/25 - unnecessary, see above)
|
| 11/24 | 2 | - Continued working on 3G shield
| - SoftwareSerial library apparently not working correctly to communicate with shield - (11/25)
|
| 11/18 | 2 | - Began working with 3G shield
| - Arduino unable to find shield - (11/25)
- Come up with a solution for the shield and arduino each needing their own batteries - (11/20)
|
| 11/15 | 4 | - Continued trying to fix the issue when writing to the SD card
- Started writing code to read from the sensors and read data from them
- Reviewed the design of the apparatus to mount the device in the stream and decided to scrap the water level measurements
| - Need to acquire the resources for building the apparatus - (11/25)
- Need to acquire a 4.7kOhm resistor in with the temp sensor - (11/18)
- Need to design a method to connect the Turbidity sensor into the circuit - (N/A, sensor fried)
|
| 11/8 | 3 | - Began writing Arduino code to write to the SD card
| - The arduino writes only once when there should be several writes - (11/15)
- SD card has to be reformatted after removal for the Arduino to initialize it - (11/15)
- Date and Time on the board is wrong - (11/29)
