Which library do you use? I made my tests with that one: https://github.com/robert-hh/BME280
Okay, never thought it could be a library thing. But I definitely used a different one. I'll make a test with the one you referenced above and see if this delivers different values...

Re: Compensate BME280 pressure measurements...

Do not trust the weather forecast. Compare it to a known good value. I compared the BME280 and BME680 reading with the values published by the local University's lab figures and found them accurate within the specification. Good point, but I check the values of various different sources - one from ...

Compensate BME280 pressure measurements...

Hi guys, I know, this is not really MicroPython specific, but as I use MiocroPython for all my sensors, I'll post ist here. So I have several BME280 sensors. I gave up on the on-board temperature sensor, because this has a known issue self-heating and therefore always showing higher temperature valu...

Re: Detection if device is moving (in motion) or not

For asyncio , Peter alias pythoncoder is the reference. I'm coding a driver for MPU6050 using interrupt pin. With the interrupt and setting at 15.625Hz I get all updated data without losing any. I've implemented a complementary filter. Just thinking about it....could you use this interrupt to wake ...

Re: Detection if device is moving (in motion) or

I'm making a similar project and I decided to invest (a lot of) money into a better GPS and more sensitive antennae - I purchased a new Ublox ZED-F9P which gets a fix in less than 30 seconds in nearly any weather conditions. The another plus of that hardware setup is much more precise location as i...

Re: Bluetooth not connecting after waking up from deepsleep...

Well, I can give it a try. But I also need to save data to the RTC memory and load it after I wake up again. So a machine.reset() - if it works - doesn’t really solve my problem…

Bluetooth not connecting after waking up from deepsleep...

Hi, I'm using an ESP32 with the latest version of MicroPython. This is a client for a bluetooth sensor. Everything works fine. I can read values from the remote bluetooth-sensor. I can even disconnect and connect again (my client is based on the ble_sample.py from the MicroPython examples). Now the ...

Re: Detection if device is moving (in motion) or

I‘m also experimenting at the moment. Unfortunately I can not drive and code at the same time. So I do some coding and use a color LED to display various levels. Here is what I‘m currently testing: I take measurements from the accelerosensor and calculate the difference from the last measurement. Sl...

Connecting SIM7000 module to ESP32 - how to switch power on and off?

Hi, I do have a Waveshare SIM7000 module I want to run with an ESP32. Everything works fine. But even though the device has a "on/off" IO pin, it consumes 170mA, even when it's turned off. I'm now thinking of attaching a relay to a GPIO port to turn on and off the SIM7000 module. However, a relay mi...
