Hello. I am using rPi 5. I have connected pHAT sensor but something doesn’t work for me. I was following Getting Started tutorial but only what i can use is ‘lcd.py’. When i want to use weather/gas i got info that “can’t get module”. Thanks for all the help
Most of those demos expect you to have a PMS sensor (which costs almost as much as the Enviro+)
Remove the PMS stuff (or buy one - marketing by broken demo?)
That was one of the first HATs I purchased - hardly used it 'cos the software sucks (now got around to C++ and am having much more success)
So if i’m understanding you correctly to use “all functionality” i need PMS sensor?
I can’t even see BME280 on 0x76
It may be worth trying the steps outlined here:
Might get you going. Hope so.
The all-in-one-enviro-mini and the all-in-one-no-pm files should run just fine without requiring any modification. You can use this pHat without the PMS sensor, it is an optional extra.
I did have one, gave it to a friend. I don’t remember having any issues setting it up or using it. Mind you, that was on a Pi Zero, and the OS used wasn’t Bookworm.
That i2c scan is not right, that’s for sure. You should have seen the following.
- 0x76: BME280
- 0x23: LTR559
- 0x49: ADS1015
What command di you run from terminal?
I was trying this ant nothing happennd :/
Just simply this:
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/enviroplus-pythoncd enviroplus-python./install.sh- `source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate
then i am entering example folder and trying to run some examples by python. I also installed enviro to the python. Tomorrow i will check enviro+ on Pi4. Maybe my Pi5 is “broken” or something is wrong with enviro+
Good or bad, so far I’ve been avoiding all that virtual environment stuff. Probably not a good plan in the long run, but that’s what I’ve been doing so far.
The Pi 5 also has the RP1 chip that interfaces with the GPIO. Not sure if that’s messing with you?
I have one Pi 5 here, but it’s used as a Desktop PC. So far I haven’t plugged anything into it’s GPIO header.
I have Enviro+ clones on the go here. I wanted a larger LCD display so I did a clone and just modified the examples accordingly.
Are you running the examples from terminal?
Just a thing to double check. Is i2c enabled in raspi-config?
Might explain why the SPI display is working but the i2c bits are not?
I got everything on (I2C). Yeasterday i was testing it on rPi 4 and still the same effect. Nothing is working. I think that my sensor is “dead”. Probably I will switch to buying BME280 and some gas sensor. Thanks for help.
I’d suggest contacting Pimoroni support as a next step, before doing anything else. This is the link. 👍
