Returning false readings #53

Open Raspihelp opened 1 year ago

Raspihelp commented 1 year ago

hoping you can help me out. I'm trying to run this code:

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
from hx711 import HX711
from time import sleep

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
hx = HX711(dout_pin=6, pd_sck_pin=5)

while True:
    reading = hx.get_raw_data_mean()
    print(reading)
    sleep(3)

It only returns the readings "False"

after that and its ran again it still returns False but has this warning as well.

home/dpi/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/hx711.py:60:
RuntimeWarning: This channel is already in use, continuing anyway.
Use GPIO.setwarnings(False) to disable warnings.
  GPIO.setup(self._pd_sck, GPIO.OUT)  # pin _pd_sck is output only

False

Raspberry Pi 3B VCC - 5V GRD (20) DOUT - GPIO6 (6) SCK - GPIO5 (18) (none of the other things in the box are hoked up. that's part of a different project)

any advice? IMG_6142 IMG_6143 IMG_6146 IMG_6147
