I’m sorry!  It looks like it somehow missed the dependencies in the install.  Try running the command pio lib install EnviroDIY_ModularSensors

That worked! I restarded VSCode and entered the command again and successfully installed the libraries.

I then went back and tried to “build” the program and ended up with a few errors. I’ve again attached the output in a txt file.

That’s alright, thanks for taking the time to walk me through this. I wish I had a bit more experience doing this…[Read more]

Enviro PRO SDI-12 command, as promies in previous repply.

We are trying to connect SDI-12 sensors., not modbus. Sensors which we try to connect are EnviroPro EP100G. They are measuring Temperature, soil moisture and Ec. They are 40 cm long and on each 10 cm they have sensors for those three measurement. There are two sensors connected  to bus, eg data pin. With script which I send it to You it is…[Read more]

The code and wiring depends on what kind of sensors you’re talking about connecting to the same pin.  Are you using sensors with SDI-12 or modbus communication?  Are these sensors already included in the many supported sensors in the EnviroDIY ModularSensors library, or are they unique sensors we haven’t used before?

Can You send code for conecting multiple sensors on same bus, eg pin.

Hm.  Did you restart VSCode after changing the path?

I did not add git to your path when I installed it, but I followed the instructions on the page you provided and added the location, which was C:Program FilesGitbin and I am still getting the same error.

The git problem is probably another “path” issue.  Did you add git to your “path” when you installed it?  I don’t remember if the installer gives you the option.

Try checking your path and adding the directory where git installed to it.  The git executable (git.exe) is probable installed in “C:Program FilesGitbin”  Here are some instructions for…[Read more]

Great, thank you! So far so good. The other step I’m hung up on now is installing the libraries through platformio. I’ve entered the command

pio lib -g install https://github.com/EnviroDIY/Libraries.git#platformio

into the platformio terminal, and have received  this error: Error: Please install Git client from…[Read more]

The DRWI_CitSci.ino, once corrected, is what will go in the src/main.cpp location correct?

Correct.  🙂

The platformio.ini you need is here:  https://github.com/EnviroDIY/ModularSensors/tree/master/examples/DRWI_CitSci

I’ve had problems with the python path before, not just with platformio, but with other programs as well.  I’ve had to un…[Read more]

Thanks Evan. I managed to enter the correct path and I’ve satisfied VScode for the time being. Not sure what I was doing wrong originally, but I try to not ask too many questions. Thanks!

Hi Sara,

Not sure what I was doing wrong initially but I’ve managed to get platformIO installed correctly on VSCode and I’m ready to proceed.

For step two of your instructions above – “2. After your project is created, delete the contents of the new platformio.ini file and replace them with the contents of the same file from the folder where you…[Read more]

I had some issues with Python when switching to PlatformIO from the Arduino IDE.

I had an older version of python installed, so I thought I would be slick and update before installing Visual Code and the PlatfromIO plugin. That is where I messed up and PlatformIO was pissed.
What alleviated my issues were completely uninstalling all python and…[Read more]

Yes, I can open python by entering the location from CMD and Run.

Hmm, are you able to successfully open the python interpreter at that location? E.g., from Windows command line, enter

C:UsersJosh BiddleAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython38-32python.exe

Hi Matt,

Thanks. I’ve tried that and am met with “Invalid path to python interpreter.”

The path is C:UsersJosh BiddleAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython38-32
