Bmp280 - variometr

Hi. I try will make variometr from this webside :How to make a Arduino variometer for paragliding | Hackaday.io <toneAC.h>
Sketch loaded normal to ending but buzzer working once: when ending load sketch or when switchon pwoer to arudino .When I move sensor baro to up or to down silence. :frowning: Please help me :slight_smile:

/*
Hardware connections:

- (GND) to GND
+ (VDD) to 3.3V
SCL to A5
SDA to A4

D9 and D10 to the Piezo Buzzer ( see toneAC.h )

int current_tone = 0;
int beep_time = 0;

void setup() {
// play start sound
  toneAC(388, 4);

  }

    old_total[i] = total;

How far up/down did you move the barometer? The datasheet seems to say +/-1m resolution... I assume "m" is "meter."

relative accuracy is ±0.12 hPa, which is equivalent to ±1 m difference in altitude.

That web site author doesn't know about the human body or the inner ear.

we don’t have a dedicated sense to 3D motion

Thank you, I'll check bigger move, beyond 1m :slight_smile: and send info with results

You seem to have some code missing

#include <toneAC.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_BMP085.h>
Adafruit_BMP085 mySensor;  // create sensor object called mySensor

/*
Hardware connections:

- (GND) to GND
+ (VDD) to 3.3V
SCL to A5
SDA to A4

also - do you need to modify this to use a bmp280?

My page here shows some tests I made in how best to connect up the bmp280
