Most pressure sensors provide temperature and pressure data, but only a few support altitude readings. This change adds a check to ensure altitude is logged only when the sensor supports it. Signed-off-by: Tahsin Mutlugun <Tahsin.Mutlugun@analog.com>

:name: Barometric pressure and temperature sensor polling example
|
|
:relevant-api: sensor_interface
|
|
|
|
Get barometric pressure and temperature data from a sensor.
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
This sample application periodically reads the sensor
|
|
temperature and pressure, displaying the
|
|
values on the console along with a timestamp since startup.
|
|
It also displays the estimated altitude if floating point is supported
|
|
and the sensor provides altitude data.
|
|
|
|
Wiring
|
|
*******
|
|
|
|
This sample uses an external breakout for the sensor. A devicetree
|
|
overlay must be provided to identify the I2C/SPI used to control the sensor.
|
|
|
|
Building and Running
|
|
********************
|
|
|
|
This sample supports pressure sensor devices. Device needs
|
|
to be aliased as ``pressure-sensor``. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: devicetree
|
|
|
|
/ {
|
|
aliases {
|
|
pressure-sensor = &icp201xx;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
Make sure the aliases are in devicetree, then build and run with:
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:zephyr-app: samples/sensor/pressure_polling
|
|
:board: nrf52dk/nrf52832
|
|
:goals: build flash
