Important Notes!!

  • Do not connect the usbc on the Xiao sense while the battery is also plugged in

Exposure test procedure

  • xiao should be programmed (to activate the cam and flash after a fixed time? maybe like 30 seconds?)

  • make connections from the runcam and flash to the two OUT jst sockets on the LILGUY. do not connect the battery to the BAT socket

  • connect a clean micro sd card

  • have a test container that blocks all light ready (maybe use an old L1)

  • take everything to a well lit location, ideally outside on a sunny day

  • plug in the battery, place the IREC in the container and close the container

  • after waiting double the programmed time (or some other amount idk) quickly open the container (the flash LED should be on.

  • when finished recording disconnect all jst connections and remove the sd card

L1 Boost detection procedure

  • microcontroller should be programmed with boost detection code

  • put it together in the 3d printed case (idk how yet)

  • connect the BAT and OUT jst connections (not usbc!!!!)

  • Verify LED on the microcontroller is lit

  • verify the flash LED is not illuminated

  • verify the sd card is inserted and secured ( we gonna have a specific way to do this?)

  • connect to test rig for an L1 gonna have to design this. maybe test mounting method here too?

  • launch and recover L1 following all proper procedures

  • remove the test rig/camera from the L1 payload bay

  • note if flash and microcontroller leds are on, and if sd card is still secured in its slot

  • note any structural damage

  • remove the sd card
