Re: BME680 Sensor

Good Morning All, Thank you Martin for your suggestions etc. I am really looking forward to moving on with this project. I am in a learning curve at the moment with regard to programming. My back ground is electronics, from which I retired nearly 20 years ago. I have worked on military radio equipme...

BME680 Sensor

I have just purchased a BME680 sensor for use in a weather station.
Is there a library / macro for the BME680 in FC8.
I have the latest version of FC8.
Can anyone direct me to a library / macro that will work with FC8?
Thank you,
John.

Re: Using BMP280 Barometer and the Hall_Digital1 mcros

Hi Viktor_au, Sorry for the delay in replying to your post. I haven't as yet selected a specific Hall Effect device, I'm just trying to get the script sorted at this stage. I have been researching the different ways to measure the wind speed and it seems to come down to 3 ways. Hall Effect switch, R...

Re: Using BMP280 Barometer and the Hall_Digital1 mcros

Hi Viktor, Thank you for your reply. Your right there are three states, this part of the flowchart was taken from an example and is currently not being fully used. I do have the temperature, and humidity working, but the air pressure returns a wrong value. I have now got the hall effect device to fu...

Re: Using BMP280 Barometer and the Hall_Digital1 mcros

Hello Benj,

Some minor changes to the file.
I have found the properties panel and got over the pin connection problem. The sensor does now seem to be changing state.
The air pressure reading is still not correct.

Regards,
John.

Re: Using BMP280 Barometer and the Hall_Digital1 mcros

Hello Benj,

I have attached two of my files that are exhibiting the problem.
As I am quite new to Flowcode and programming then I am probably missing something.

Regards,
John.

Using BMP280 Barometer and the Hall_Digital1 mcros

Hi All, This is my first posting on this forum. I am working on a flowchart in Flowcode8 to build a weather station. The code so far is working ok for temperature and humidity. I am using the BMP280 as the sensor. The air pressure part of the macro doesn't return the correct value, (if the value on ...

Hello All, I am brand new to the forum and brand new to Flow Code 8 and have limited programming knowledge, but I am wanting to learn. I have started to write a programme which works well within Flow Code. However when I try to compile to the Arduino I get: AVR compiler tool chain missing. I do have...
