Well that looks good. Do you get any other output after the 40 seconds it waits at start?

Yes, a lot!
first one: "

"
2nd one: "
----------------------------------------------------------

Setting to active mode while sleeping

----------------------------------------------------------

And nothing more... for moment, until more than 60 sec...

Thanks a lot!

Is your device connected correctly?
Can you read something if you manually call uart.read()?

If both answers are yes then mabye uart.flush() needs a different workaround:

Code: Select all

if self._uart.any():
    self._uart.read(self._uart.any())

I have connected :
rx-pms to tx-pyboard(X1)
tx-pms to rx-pyboard(X2)
gnd to gnd
vcc to v+

The "uart.read()"'s command return None. I have placed it just after the "uart = machine.UART(1, baudrate=9600)"'s command

I have reversed rx and tx connection without success.

I will test to change the flush command...

Thanks.

OK,
Sorry,
A simple mistake of me. I haven't change the pin correctly in my file...

Now I have this error:

Yo,

Same result with :
"if self._uart.any():
self._uart.read(self._uart.any())"
for replacing the flush's command...

Finally, It works, the frame contains values wich looks rights... No?

I have just to keep them in variables like "pms2.5 = frame[1]"

No?

I tried figuring out why you see that error but from the code I have, it is impossible that this error occurs in that line.

Code: Select all

  File "/sd/lib/pms/pms5003.py", line 451, in __read_frame
TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()
Can you post the code in line 451 just to be sure we have the same file? (we probably do but I just don't see how it is possible that the variable "buffer" in that line is suddenly "None" instead of a list)
Also please share you pms5003_test file.

The frame looks good now. If you want to print the values use this:

Code: Select all

pm.registerCallback(pm.print)
To read the values from the pm object you use:

Code: Select all

pms25=pm.pm25_standard
The different values can be found in the documentation (the README.md)

Yop,

my 451 line : "if len(data) != preframe_len and len(data) > 0:"

That's great! I'm very happy that the pms5003 works!
Thank you very much.
My sister is an aerosol researcher, and she doesn't have a better precision!

It's amazing!

For example, a virus coud be bigger than 0.3 um. (the covid is not far (0.12)). Very, very interessant data comes from pms5003. The example with smoke cigarets is kind.
I will can use it and tease my sister!
Kevin, your are a chief!
All my respect.

Ah of course, my bad. I forgot that the line number changed because of the workarounds for uart.flush()
Still strange that uart.read() would return "None" although the program waits until enough data is available in uart.any()..
But I added a workaround for that, hopefully that will help.

Try this file and let me know if it works correctly: https://github.com/kevinkk525/pms5003_m ... pms5003.py


I'm glad it works for you now!
