Wed., May 2nd

New student is visiting; Ray is talking to her about the project.

I re-mounted the FEDA board to the platform, reinstalled the cooling unit onto it, and reconnected the +5V power to the FEDAM, and the +12V power to the fan, and reconnected the 3 detector cables and the timing-sync cable to the newly-soldered SMA jacks in our preferred arrangement.  Getting ready to show Ray the startup sequence...

The FEDAM's Wi-Fi (Node #1) seems to be having trouble getting enough power through the FEDAM board; possibly this is because the hand-made connector through the gender bender keeps coming loose.  I made a new power connection for it directly from Samad's board.  That works, but some day we need to make a more robust connector.

Went through the startup sequence and data format with Ray.  Need to write up a little document on the startup sequence and data format.  OK, did that; created "COSMICi User Manual" document on docs.neutralino.org and shared it with Ray.
