BMP085 not calculating #18

Open lab4d opened 9 years ago

lab4d commented 9 years ago

Dear all, first of thank you so much for this project, i just got and built mine and im loving it!! I have an issue though i hope someone here can helpo me fix.

The Pressure and Temperature readings are not being calculated, they stay stuck to some value since the first time i got it running. I triple checked the soldering and its all fine. I also get around 15-20 lines of : Error Accessing 0x77: Check your I2C address, every time after uploading succesfully, but that is set just fine in the cfg, as its working for the other sensors, and the i2cdetect confirms i got a Rev2 board. The bmp085Backend.py does have a line reading i2c = none near the beginning, but im assuming thats some sort of initialization right ? (sorry im not that good with Python yet. .)

You can check the live feed here, and you will notice pressure and temperature are not working> https://xively.com/feeds/1547432953

Im about to order a new BMP085 as i have to assume this one is busted, but if anyone had encountered this error, or knows what might be causing this please let me know, i would really like to finish this asap so i can move to the projects other parts ..

Thank you in advance,

Luka
