Hi.
I’m not entirely new to the Arduino environment nor PIC and TI chips but I have come unstuck with the SFE_BMP180_Example.
The program verify’s, loads and runs but in the Consul it stops at what I call the verification point all at the illustrated example final line:
//Start of illustration
#include <SFE_BMP180.h>
#include <Wire.h>
// You will need to create an SFE_BMP180 object, here called “pressure”:
SFE_BMP180 pressure;
#define ALTITUDE 34.6 // Altitude of my road in meters
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println(“REBOOT”);
// Initialize the sensor (it is important to get calibration values stored on the device).
if (pressure.begin())
Serial.println(“BMP180 init success”);
else
{
// Oops, something went wrong, this is usually a connection problem,
// see the comments at the top of this sketch for the proper connections.
Serial.println(“BMP180 init fail\n\n”);
//End of illustration
I’m not too sure just what the comment “// You will need to create an SFE_BMP180 object, here called “pressure”:” actually means; is the answer as the next line “SFE_BMP180 pressure;” or am I supposed to write something into the program. Whatever it stops here and will not go any further. So where am I up to:
1] The board is definitely provided with a Vcc of Arduino 3.3V’s.
2] The four wires hardly require any elucidation (or do they).
3] My project board is a duemilanove (pin-outs as a UNO[?]).
4] Why O’why is it stopping.
I have loads of stuff to write as soon as I can extract the fundamental numbers so: Any help would be most kindly welcomed, Cheers,
