    Edit: I accidentely changed some I2C pins, which were refering to BME680. This most likely solves my issue. Sorry for the inconvenience, maybe someone can use this, since i didn't find something on the issue either.

     

    Hello Bosch-Community,

    I've been using the code given to me by BSTRobin for a quite a while (link to the forum post: Solved: BME860 does not return humidity or gas-resistance and it used to work flawlessly.

    I haven't checked the sensor for quite a while, since I had other sensors to work on. When testing my LoRa + BME680 sensor on my stm32 machine again (I'm also using STM32IDE), it does not enter the bsec_iot_loop, because ret.bme680_status returns -3. Here is a snippet of the main code: 

     

     

    while(1)
    {
    	return_values_init ret;
    
    		//PDEBUG("StartBME680Task\r\n");
    		/* Call to the function which initializes the BSEC library
    		* Switch on low-power mode and provide no temperature offset */
    	    ret = bsec_iot_init(BSEC_SAMPLE_RATE_HP, 4.85f, bus_write2, bus_read2, sleep, state_load, config_load);
    		if (ret.bme680_status)
    		{
    			/* Could not intialize BME680 */
    			//PDEBUG("Could not intialize BSEC library, bme680_status=%d\r\n", ret.bme680_status);
    			//return (int)ret.bme680_status;
    		}
    		else if (ret.bsec_status)
    		{
    			/* Could not intialize BSEC library */
    			//PDEBUG("Could not intialize BSEC library, bsec_status=%d\r\n", ret.bsec_status);
    			//return (int)ret.bsec_status;
    		}
    
    		if((ret.bme680_status == 0) && (ret.bsec_status == 0))
    
    		{
    		//	PDEBUG("intialize BSEC library successful\r\n");
    			/* Call to endless loop function which reads and processes data based on sensor settings */
    			/* State is saved every 10.000 samples, which means every 10.000 * 3 secs = 500 minutes  */
    			while(1){
    		}

     

     

    Neither google, nor the datasheet told me something about the error code. I'm thankful for every help.

     

     

    Kind regards

    Hello Crackl1ng,

    You could debug step by step to see where the error is reported in the following functions.
    ret = bsec_iot_init(BSEC_SAMPLE_RATE_LP, 0.0f, bus_write, bus_read, sleep, state_load, config_load);
