The DIRECTV clinic team is designing an embedded application to debug DIRECTV’s Whole Home Network. The project includes: analyzing network data, designing a user interface, and interfacing with DIRECTV’s Advanced Installation Meter. The team will deliver an application that is ready to be incorporated with existing applications, a programmed AIM which runs the application on startup, and full documentation of the code and the programming process.
