I'm not sure how much of an update this is considered. I am having issues with the temperature sensors (DS18B20 Temperature Sensors) which are OneWire. Now the issue is that they don't work on the MSP432P401R. I have tried everything in the past 2 weeks and a lot of different coding to no avail. I copied and pasted code and even used the code in Energia for the OneWire temperature sensors and nothing worked. I found some information on line saying all the coding for the sensor works on the MSP430. When I used the sample code and compiled it for the MSP430 it worked, but it crashes for the MSP432. Since this is what I require to finish my project I require help on finding the correct sensors. I have the suit complete with the heat elements sewn in. The power supply is ready and wires are run throughout the suit, I just need working sensors.
A quick update on the waterproofing of the board with the acrylic conformal coating. I filled a tray with water and added salt (quite a bit of salt), powered up the test Arduino and set it into the salt water for 2 hours. (I kept the plugged-in end out of the water). I then took it out and let it dry off (It kept working and I didn't wash it off). A week later (2 days ago) I plugged it in and it is still working so I put it into another tray full of salt water for 1 more hour (It still is working). I did wash it off with clean water and it is no worse for wear, I am very impressed with the coating, giving me different use ideas for the future.
So, I require any help or advice available
My question to everyone, what temperature sensors work on the MSP432? Since I already spent money on sensors that don't work, I need to get the correct ones (Quickly).
Thank you for any help you can give
