Struggling with MLX90640

Post by sensorlife »

Hi there!
Currently I am trying to get a broken MLX90640 working again. I have replaced the sensor and it works with my C++ code. However when using the python code from the Adafruit library i get the following error:

raise RuntimeError("Adjacent outlier pixels")

When I use a different sensor the code works fine. Any suggestions how to fix this?

It sounds like you have multiple boards and only one is acting odd? Since it's a Pimoroni board, please contact Pimoroni to see if they may have some ideas about what might be happening:
