Hey y’all, I am putting together an IoT enviromental sensor suite and was hoping I could get some help with my SGP30 gas sensor. I haven’t found any problems like it on the discussion boards, so hopefully it’s just a newbie fix. I am using a photon with firmware 1.5.0 and am flashing code from the…

From your log it appears that the sgp.begin() fails here if (featureset != SGP30_FEATURESET) return false; The library expects a value of 0x0020 exactly but your sensor returns 0x0022 which would indicate “better” featureset than what’s required. The latest versino of the original Adafruit …

This worked! Thanks for your help. Out of curiosity, how did you figure out the 0xF0 part of your code?

[image] ads5g5: how did you figure out the 0xF0 part of your code? That is how Adafruit did it in their latest update to their own library. This way they would accept anything that starts with 0x002? but are not interested in the least significant digit. Not bullet proof IMO, but it works.
