Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

now i'm working with "EByte" e73-2g4m04s1b.

i just follows these procedure then will update the status.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Senthilkumar,

[quote user="Ask313"]Sorry, i m not using the Development kit. [/quote]

I understand. Which module are you working with?

[quote user="Ask313"]The pin out is not an issue. I used P0.30, but uou mentioned that module pin number.[/quote]

My mistake, I seem to have glanced too quickly at your description, sorry.
Using those pins is indeed fine for TWI.

in that new board i have soldered only i2c device.

This is the value i'm getting now.

<info> app: TEMP:23.10
<info> app: X:18.62
<info> app: Y:-13.72
<info> app: Z:-9.80

Also, i try with old board (two i2c device) some times its hanged and some times shows Fatal Error.

Do I understand you correctly that you have tested your code on a board with only the TLV493D sensor device connected via TWI, and this is working as expected - but when you run the same code on your board with two TWI devices, you the application hangs or crashes with Fatal Error?
Do you have access to a development kit for testing of the code, or an external debugger? - This would make it a lot easier to pinpoint where the application fails.
Do you have any notion of where in the code the application the error is generated, or where it hangs?

Multiple TWI devices is not a problem, since you are addressing them differently. However, could it be that your device gets stuck in a waiting loop(waiting for a transfer to finish), that the sensor does not acknowledge or respond to? In this case, you could add a timer that will start of each transfer, and abort the transfer if it times out.

Best regards,
Karl

Hi,

Sorry, i m not using the Development kit.

[quote userid="87869" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/62699/twi-interface-problem-using-tlv493-magnetic-sensor/255523"]Please check the Pin Assignment before assigning pins to your peripherals. As you can see, pin 30 is used for the Antenna.
When it comes to using the pins on your nRF-52 DK I recommend taking a look a the Connector Interface documentation. [/quote]

I have tested with another board with same functionalities its working. Some of the only its hanged.

Kindly give solution for, multiple i2c activating and Fatal error.

After that i can't get the actual data. Also, i don't know the continuous read function.

Give related examples for this.

The TWI Scanner will only scan for devices, it will not perform any read / write operations.

For a general example on how you can interface TWI Sensors, you should see the TWI Sensor example. You might also be interested in using the TWI Sensor library directly.

I do not have such an example for the TLV493 sensor specifically at the ready, but I am sure a driver for the sensors TWI interface already exists publicly available.
I do not know if this is the sensor module you have, but a brief search on github yielded this repository, which might be helpful to have a look at.
If this is not the sensor module you currently have, then I would suggest finding or implementing a driver based on the TWI interface described in its datasheet.

Please let me know if anything still should be unclear,

Best regards,
Karl
