BME280 not displaying values

[TOKN59]

Hello, I have added a BME280 sensor and I2CSCAN show the device and the correct address so that's ok. However in the devices tab, it does not sghow any value. Any idea what might be wrong ? See screenshot ... Thanks for your help !

What's the delay time? Have you waited at least that time and then refresh the device page?

Hi Tokn59,

I had the same when I connected mine up.
If you bought it off ebay, you may have been fraudulently sold a BMP not BME, as I was.
Configure it as a BMP280 and it will then display the temperature and air pressure.

Hello, thanks for the info. I tried both and I know the sensor is working fine since it works with other software on AQrduino for example. I have tried to set multiple delays ranging from 10 - 60. What should IDX be ? Is that free to chose ? I am using the device in standalone mode.

Also .. the sensor/device does not show up in the LOG. All other devices show up ok in the LOG ...

IDX should only be used if you are connecting to Domoticz. But if you want to keep it you need to set it >0.

Please refer to the wiki first, if this is the fault it is covered already.

First step:
Check "advanced" --> "I2C-Scan".
The BME should show up there.

If it does not there is a cabling fault.
Most times this happened to me i've swapped SCL/SDA......
