Hi,

does the Xtrinsic-Board work with the Raspberry B+? the first 26 GPIO's are the same as the Raspberry B.From my Universitiy, i've got a Raspberry B+ and the sensor board, but with the provided OS from www.element14.com/rpimems_sense, the RaspberryPi B+ does not boot, and with a manual installation of the sensorboard with raspbian wheezy, i can't get a connection to the sensors.

Any ideas?

Thanks for help..

Max

This board works perfectly with Raspberry V1.0, but the binary-only driver does not. I've reverse engineered it so it can be compiled for V1.0 (depends on the bcm2835 library).

Hi Anthony_h,

Thanks for all the info. Good stuff.

A customer came to us regarding: "to copy the out-of-the-box image file (.img) to it."

The link to the image in here seems to be dead now.

Confirmation from your side please.... Is this currently the link to the image?

git clone http://git.oschina.net/embest/rpi_sensor_board.git

Thanks,

Harry

Does not work even with gpu using 32 MB, change in raspi-configure.

Have a 256 MB Rpi sensors report alt & temp 0, x,y & z 0 micro t, x 64 mg y & z 0. Free shows 123360 so memory is equally divided. In boot/ there are start_cd.elf, start_x.elf and start.elf copying either as start.elf with a reboot does not change the split.

Is a 512 Raspberry Pi required for the board to work.

Hi Anthony,

I would be interested in your code and interface software.

I have the MEMs board and plan to integrate it into some real time data collection for thunderstorms.

Thanks
