Getting acclimated to the WiPy 2.0 and Expansion Board. My first “hello world” if you will is to get a TSL2591 Light Sensor running. It is an i2c device.
Initial Notes on WiPy 2.0 Setup:
- Datasheet for Expansion Board are difficult to understand. I assumed that the pinouts would closely resemble that of the WiPy 2.0 but they are not even close. I am still working with the Expansion Board but dread pulling the WiPy 2.0 off of it and having to rework the circuit
- ATOM w/Pymkr is flakey at best. Sync Folder setting not working for me. I find myself having to restart ATOM after a while as it stops responding often.
- Firmware Upgrade Fails: I think? Can’t tell what the latest firmware should be so I am not sure what, if anything happened.
- Connection with ATOM via IP address never worked. USB connection is working great.
TSL2991 Code:
Stole this from https://github.com/maxlklaxl/python-tsl2591
Out of the box this code did not work with the WiPy 2.0. After debugging a bit it turns out the pin outs for SDA and SCL needed to be changed.
Code Snippet (line 52ish of tsl2951.py that I changed to work with WiPy 2.0
