Hi All,
I am currently looking into an issue where the HX711 can go into sleep mode, resulting in bad data being received by the boron. See thread below:
@Joel suggested using the actually SPI and SPI.transfer to attempt to communicate to the HX711 via the hardware SPI. I have done some research but am at a bit of a loss as to where to start.
Will I need to make use of the:
SPI.setDataMode(SPI_MODE2);
command and is SPI_MODE2 the mode that I should use. Also in the actual SPI.transfer command:
SPI.transfer(tx_buffer, rx_buffer, length, myFunction);
Am I correct in saying that tx and rx are byte arrays. Do I just fill the outgoing array with dummy data and read the incoming array after calling the .transfer function?
From what I have gathered the myFunction callback can be used to ensure that the comms process has been completed, for this to work do I just return a bool from myFunction and wait for that value?
Thanks.
