June 28th | Aashmika | cleant up the mockup table for easier use and searching - please keep it this clean or cleaner! Added all ESD mats, ground connections and wrist straps (did this last week but will add it here) Found telemetry stuff including PoE module, bullet, rpi, gps/lte hat, antennas (all from MSXII besides gps hat which I picked up yesterday from James) → will go in later to set it up and see if the PoE module is working as it should

June 29th | Aashmika | set up the “telemetry mockup” after finding all the telemetry stuff used in MSXII. It is a “tapey” solution for now once i confirm everything is included as needed. Installed raspbian on one of the Pis from MSXII for the purposes of telemtry testing, not sure what else fw would like. TLDR: Turn on the supply and it should be good to go! The following briefly explains setup: Set up the pi to interface over ethernet to the poe module that is connected to ubiquiti bullet. The power supply connects to a 12V breakout board from MSXII that supplies power to a 12V-5V OTS regulator meant for car usage, that with some barrel jacks in between powers the pi (i had to sacrifice the usb B end of a usb to microusb connector for the easier powering option). HDMI from pi to monitor and logi unifying device for mouse and keyboard on USB port. GPS+LTE hat on top of the rpi connected with usb-microusb. The ubiquity bullet has an antenna, the rpi hat has a connector for gps and lte to either antenna (note: do not unplug the connector too much it is a fragile board connector and can survive very few connector cycling). Finally I just connected the peak-can dongle cuz there was one in the MSXII telemetry components.  tested ps for main rails when supplied with the power supply input, and saw that it maintained a output 13.5V to front pd! this means jump start definitely works, but need to check if the cell is disconnected once the output is maintained. Did not see any shorts, and did not try any other inputs. Will check all this once I start load testing
