-The XBee project involves taking two series-one XBee modules and interfacing them with the various sensors that have been documented in our ECE497 group. Our goal was to create wiki sections which expand on the sensors to include sample wireless communication documentation and source code.
+The XBee project involves taking two series-one XBee modules <span style="color:red">(Include a link to these)</span> and interfacing them with the various sensors that have been documented in our ECE497 group. Our goal was to create wiki sections which expand on the sensors to include sample wireless communication documentation and source code.
 We have successfully connected to the XBee radios from the Bones and sent data using the <code>/dev/ttyO</code> file system. We have also successfully done wireless implementations of the force sensitive resistor, the magnetometer, and the joystick alone a set of functions for expanding this to any sensor.

 Our git repo for this project is available here: [https://github.com/duganje/ECE497_XBEE.git https://github.com/duganje/ECE497_XBEE.git]. To begin, run
   beagle$ git clone https://github.com/duganje/ECE497_XBEE.git
-to clone the repository. This contains three folders with examples of XBee implementation for specific sensors and <code>XBee.c</code>, which contains helper functions for using the XBee. You are now able to send data wirelessly using the <code>SendIntXbee()</code> and <code>ReceiveIntXbee()</code> functions. Clone the repository on a separate BeagleBone and use the same functions to receive and reply data.

		+	Use the following to run the joystick code (you can skip the first step if you have already cloned the repository):
		+
		+	beagle$ git clone https://github.com/duganje/ECE497_XBEE.git
		+	beagle$ cd ECE497_XBEE
		+	beagle$ cd 2AxisJoystick
		+	beagle$ make
		+
		+	This will create 2 executables: '''joystickSend''' and '''joystickReceive'''. Run the code by doing:
		+
		+	beagle$ ./joystickSend
		+
		+	on the Bone connected to the XBee and the joystick and:
		+
		+	beagle$ ./joystickReceive
		+
		+	on the Bone connected to just the XBee.
