BMP085 'split' Pressure

Hi All,

Using a BMP085 inside my Pi to show pressure and temperature (of the Pi). All works and displays fine in Domoticz.

Is there any way to only show the pressure? I don't have a need to show the Pi temperature at all. Can't find a way to seperate the pressure from the temp.

Cheers

I assume your using this sensor directly connected on the header pins and configured in hardware as I2C BMP085/180 in Domoticz, right?

The only way is see now is to unconfigure your current device.
Create a dummy barometer in domoticz (Hardware/Dummy VirtualSwitches/create dummy select Pressure (Bar)

After that note the idx.
Download and execute the adafruit example for you bmp180.

This script outputs the temp en pressure.
After that you can then push the pressure value with curl into domoticz.

I recently posted in scripts a modified adafruit python script for the bme280 so it pushed temp/hum/baro into domoticz...

There you find the modification to do that within the example script for your bme180.
