    My project team and I are having a hard time getting the BMP280 to return temperature and pressure data. (We really just want altitude). We are using the script from ozzmaker.com, found here:

    https://github.com/ozzmaker/BerryIMU/tree/master/python-BMP280-temperature-pressure

    When we run the script as-is, the following Error is returned

     

    File ‘bmp280.py”, line 85, in <module>

    p= (p – (var2/4096.0)) * 6250.0 /var1

    ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

     

    Digging through the file, we have traced back var1 to the read from the temperature sensor, which is reading 0.

    We have also done due diligence with the hardware, and the connections are securely connected. Additionally, the GPS and IMU functions are working correctly.

     

    P.S. I apologize that this will be my second post in a couple days, we’ve been spending a lot of time hitting our heads against a wall with this module. We bought this module hoping for a one-stop-shop off-the-shelf solution to make it easy to dump GPS and 10DoF data into a CSV file but have found that integrating all the different scripts has been a lot more work than anticipated. Any help/direction to a script which maybe already does this would be greatly appreciated.

    Edit: Confirmed, the data returned from the command bus.read_i2c_block_data(0x77, 0x88, 24) is all zeros.

    b1 = bus.read_i2c_block_data(0x77, 0x88, 24)
    print(b1)
    > 0,0,0,0,0,0,0

    Can you check on the back of the PCB and see what version you have?  if you have version 3.5, then it would be using the BMP388.  Sorry for any confusion.

     

    Try the attached code.

    Just looked on the back of the berryGPS-IMU board, and confirmed that it is, in fact, version 3.5.

    I do not see any code attached to your previous message? Could you resend link?

    A partial success: We tabbed through the code, but got an error:

    AttributeError: ‘BMP388’ object has no attribute ‘T1’.

    To us, it seemed like the function _load_calibration(): was never being called, so we added a line bmp388._load_calibration()  in to the  if __name__ = ‘__main__’:  module. Edit for clarity, we added this line right after the line bmp388=BMP388() which declares the object.

    Now the program executes, but all the data is stale.

    Temperature = 23.7 Pressure = 79241.63 Altitude =2026.07

    Any thoughts?

    Solved:

    The code supplied above by Peter is correct. When copy-pasting, we lost indentations, and did not do it properly ourselves. The proper indentation must be used. Here is a link to a location that we found the same code, but with indents intact for the BerryGPS v3.5

    TLDR: Use this code for the BMP388 temp/pressure/altimeter

    https://github.com/getelectronics/PIBits/blob/master/python/bmp388.py

    Cheers, and thank you Peter for all the support.

    Hi johnmark, I was happy to see your post….

    I am running your code from github with the BerryGPS-IMU but, I always get the message “Pressure sersor NULL!” followed by:

    Temperature = 0.0 Pressure = 0.0  Altitude =44330.00
    Temperature = 0.0 Pressure = 0.0  Altitude =44330.00
    Temperature = 0.0 Pressure = 0.0  Altitude =44330.00
    ….

    The GPS and IMU are both working as expected.

    Do you have an pointers based on your experience?

    Thank you!

    Here are some things that we checked

    • Check which berryGPS version … it was found that we have the bmp388, rather than the bmp280. .
      • Per Peter’s comment above, “Can you check on the back of the PCB and see what version you have?  if you have version 3.5, then it would be using the BMP388.”
      • If you have the older version of the berryGPS, which has a bmp280, you will need different code, which can be found above in the first post on this thread.
    • Ensure that I2C is enabled under the raspi-config > interfaces menu, and that I2C is reading that register 0x77 is occupied  (as shown in the IMU guide here: https://ozzmaker.com/berryimu/

    Those would be my best guesses where to start based on our team’s experience.
    Keep us updated and good luck.

    Thank you very much for your kind reply. It turns out that indeed, I have a V2 BerryGPS-IMU so, when I use the BMP280 code everything runs as expected. Thank you again for your help.
