Problems with two wire mode #2

Hi, I'm having trouble getting either of the two temperatures to return in two wire mode, It often works on startup and never again after. Also, is there a way to have the sensor continuously output just the IR readings? Many Thanks, Noah.

Hi Noah,

Sorry for the slow reply on this.

Regarding the problem with two wire mode: Does the sensor work in three wire mode, or not at all in either case?

Unfortunately it's not possible to have the sensor output just IR readings, the ambient readings are always interspersed. Of course if you don't call getAmbientTemperature() then these values are effectively ignored.
