Arduino Pro mini 3 with BME280
Posted: Sun Jun 28, 2020 12:57 pm
Hi All,
Firstly thanks to everyone for the content on this forum. I'm really appreciating the information avaiable.
I've now built my first OpenXSensor, using a Pro Mini and BME280.
I'm using the latest oXs from Github running on FrSky, QX7 Tx, and x8r Rx, connecting sensors via the SPort.
After some work (mainly due to not compiling agains the right processor option in Arduino IDE!), I have a working sensor that is giving me three new sensors in OpenTX:
Alt - In Feet
VSpd - In Metres/second
Tmp2 - In Degree C.
Alt and VSpd seem to pass the basic walking up and down the stairs test, so ok so far.
I have two questions, if you don't mind.
1. The Tmp2 reading seems to be stuck on 50 Degrees C. I can't see where to configure this in the oXs_config.h file. Any pointers as to where I should be looking?
2. Is it possible to change the units for Alt and VSpd? I'd certainly like them to be consistent, but not too worried which units to use.
Many thanks.
David.
