Temperature Sensor, Pico W, Arduino IDE

Hello,

I have a Raspberrt Pi Pico W and a Sparkfun Temperature Sensor AS6212

I am using Arduino IDE in Windows

I have loaded the Sparkfun AS6212 QWICC Arduino library using the Library manager

I use the Example_01_BasicRedings.ino (Examples->Examples from custom library->Example_01_BasicRedings.ino)

I get the below error message.

Appreciated if anyone can see what is going wrong?

Are there any additional libraries that need to be installed?

Where do I enter the names of the pins on my Pico for SDA and SCL?

Do i have to use a qwiic I2C driver module?

Fredrik

My error message from Pico W:

CDRTOSConfigure

Info : only one transport option; autoselect ‘swd’

Info : Hardware thread awareness created

Info : Hardware thread awareness created

Info : RP2040 Flash Bank Command

Info : Listening on port 50001 for tcl connections

Error: Failed to open or find the device

Error: Can’t find a picoprobe device! Please check device connections and permissions.

You’ll need to use micropython or circuitpython…the required packages are listed here https://github.com/sparkfun/Qwiic_AS6212_Py (you need to qwiic and AS6212 ones)

Then try converting them to micropython https://github.com/PlantandFoodResearch/pytomicropy and finally circle back to https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/di … n-examples for a demo of some functions

Thanks for your reply.

I am trying to convert MicroPython to CircuitPython using the information from the page you sent me.

I run

python -m pip install https://github.com/pfrnz/pytomicropy/archive/main.zip

I received this error message

ERROR: No matching distribution found for python-minifier<3.0.0,>=2.5.0

I’ll then install Python 2.7.6

I run

C:\Python27 -m pip install https://github.com/pfrnz/pytomicropy/archive/main.zip

I received this error message

C:\Python27\python.exe: No module named pip

Thank you for tips on how to use pip

I use Windows 11

HI!

I have assumed that my error message is due to using the wrong version of pip for use with python 2.7

ERROR: No matching distribution found for python-minifier<3.0.0,>=2.5.0

I downgrad pip with

python -m pip install pip==18.0

I get an error when I run

pip --version

I can’t understand this error message.

This time it might be because I don’t have pip installed.

When I run below command I get the error again

C:\Python27\python.exe: No module named pip

What version of pip shall I use for python 2.7?

how do i install and use the correct pip version for python 2.7?

Go through some basic tutorials on how it all works…python 2.7 was released in 2010 (a LONG time ago); you likely need to remove it and upgrade to 3.x and go from there

Note that these are issues with getting the Pico set up…their docs/resources are likely more appropriate
