Hardware Integration & Testing
- Finished full testbed assembly
- Started testing on actual hardware setup (pump, fan, heaters, sensors all active)
- Verified operation of all components under load
SSR Calibration
- Conducted oscilloscope testing to measure duty cycle vs. output power
- Derived a linear equation relation PWM duty value to wattage output
- Updated control code to use calculated duty values
Integration
- Finished integrating UART communication between Raspberry Pi 5 and Pico
- Verified that heartbeat and command messages correctly sent and received
Schedule & Progress
- On schedule
- Debugging hardware issues and calibration tasks from last week have been resolved
- System now ready for automated data collection testing
Next Steps
- Write and test automated data collection routines on the Pi 5
- Begin extended test runs to log data continuously
- Start ML code development
