HI Vidar,

Thanks for your help. I have managed to resolve this issue !

Hi,

-1 corresponds to 'STATUS_ERR_BAD_DATA ' according to the sht3x.h header: https://github.com/Sensirion/embedded-sht/blob/fcc8a523210cc1241a2750899ff6b0f68f3ed212/sht3x/sht3x.h#L53. So the next step should probably to debug the function to see where the error is returned.

Hi Vidar,

I got an error of -1. If I am not wrong ret is supposed to be 0 right? Since STATUS_OK is defined as 0

Hi,

Please try again with the blocking read (sht3x_measure_blocking_read) and check if it returns with an error.

e.g.

 if(button_number == 3)
    {
              int32_t temperature, humidity;
               int32_t temp_read, hum_read;
                  char temp_str[5];
                  char hum_str[5];
        
           int8_t ret = sht3x_measure_blocking_read(SHT3X_I2C_ADDR_DFLT,
                                                 &temperature, &humidity);
               if (ret == STATUS_OK) {
                temp_read = temperature / 1000;
                hum_read = humidity / 1000; 
                  
                  
                // itoa(temp_read, temp_str,10); // Reduntant. The __LOG macro will do the conversion
                // itoa(hum_read, hum_str, 10);
               __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Temperature: %d\n", temperature);
               __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Humidity: %d\n", humidity);  
         
              } else {
                   __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "sht3x_measure_blocking_read() failed. Error: %d\n", ret);
              }

      }

HI Vidar,

Thank you for your prompt reply ! I did the changes that you told me to do. However, the temperature values that appear in the J-Link appear to be just 0 even after pressing button 3 a few times.

As such, instead of putting 'temperature' in the LOG, i tried it with 'temp_read' instead. Here is the code.

if(button_number == 3)
    {
              int32_t temperature, humidity;
              int32_t temp_read, hum_read;
                  char temp_str[5];
                  char hum_str[5];
        
              int8_t ret = sht3x_read(SHT3X_I2C_ADDR_DFLT,
                                           &temperature, &humidity);

               if (ret == STATUS_OK) {
                 temp_read = temperature / 1000 ;
                //hum_read = humidity / 1000;  I removed humidity for this test first
                  
                // itoa(temp_read, temp_str,10);
                // itoa(hum_read, hum_str, 10);
                 
              }
              __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Temperature: %d\n", temp_read); 
      }

Ultimately, I managed to get something in the output. However I realized that the output is always goes in one loop from 0-255. Every time I press button 3, the temperature seems to increase until 255 before going back to 0 and starting all over again as shown in the picture here

Any possible solutions to this? Your help is much appreciated

Hi,

It looks like you are printing the RAM address to where 'temp_str' and 'hum_str' are stored in RAM rather than printing the content of those arrays. Try this instead:

 if(button_number == 3)
    {
              int32_t temperature, humidity;
               int32_t temp_read, hum_read;
                  char temp_str[5];
                  char hum_str[5];
        
           int8_t ret = sht3x_measure_blocking_read(SHT3X_I2C_ADDR_DFLT,
                                                 &temperature, &humidity);
               if (ret == STATUS_OK) {
                temp_read = temperature / 1000;
                hum_read = humidity / 1000; 
                  
                  
                // itoa(temp_read, temp_str,10); // Reduntant. The __LOG macro will do the conversion
                // itoa(hum_read, hum_str, 10);
                  
         

              }
          __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Temperature: %d\n", temperature);
         __LOG(LOG_SRC_APP, LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Humidity: %d\n", humidity);
      }

Best regards,

Vidar
