EPICS CSI Week 4

Project Budgets are due on Friday. Andrew Batek is responsible for this.

Had a discussion regarding Katie Taller's senior design project. I will be helping her get up to speed on the sensor motes and help her get that aspect of her project working.

ECS Potentiostat troubleshooting


I am trying to troubleshoot the ECS potentiostat using the layout image as shown above. I found two traces that were broken and fixed them using solder and I will be checking to see if the potentiostat works within the next week.

Tyler will troubleshoot the power supply and we will put this together next week.



Semester Plans



These are the individual project semester plans that were created this week. I collated all these charts and their accompanying text in to the semester plan that is now on the T drive and will be submitted to Prof. Chappell during the next week.

Week 3 project partner meeting

This week we had our project partner meeting.

The presentation is on the T drive.








This week we found out that the project partner meeting was postponed to the next week.

Due to certain problems with the team e-mail list, I have created a common e-mail list that includes the advisors and TAs as well as non-registered team members in order to create a common line of communication. This e-mail address is csi_f09@lists.purdue.edu

This week teams will be creating their semester plan.
