A Python module to interface with the TSYS01 temperature sensor. Tested on Raspberry Pi 3 with Raspbian.
The python SMBus library must be installed.
sudo apt-get install python-smbus
import tsys01
sensor = tsys01.TSYS01() # Use default I2C bus 1
sensor = tsys01.TSYS01(0) # Specify I2C bus 0
Initialize the sensor. This needs to be called before using any other methods.
sensor.init()
Returns true if the sensor was successfully initialized, false otherwise.
Read the sensor and update the temperature.
sensor.read()
Returns True if read was successful, False otherwise.
Get the most recent temperature measurement.
sensor.temperature() # Get temperature in default units (Centigrade)
sensor.temperature(ms5837.UNITS_Farenheit) # Get temperature in Farenheit
Valid arguments are:
tsys01.UNITS_Centigrade
tsys01.UNITS_Farenheit
tsys01.UNITS_Kelvin
Returns the most recent temperature in the requested units, or temperature in degrees Centigrade if invalid units specified. Call read() to update.
