# BME280_math module
| Since | Origin / Contributor | Maintainer | Source |
| :----- | :-------------------- | :---------- | :------ |
| 2016-02-21 | [vsky279](https://github.com/vsky279) | [vsky279](https://github.com/vsky279) | [bme280_math.c](../../app/modules/bme280_math.c)|
This module provides calculation routines for [BME280/BMP280 temperature/air presssure/humidity sensors](http://www.bosch-sensortec.com/bst/products/all_products/bme280) (Bosch Sensortec). Communication with the sensor is ensured by Lua code through I2C or SPI interface. Read registers are passed to the module to calculate measured values.
See [bme280](../lua-modules/bme280.md) Lua module for examples.
## bme280_math.altitude()
For given air pressure (called QFE in aviation - see [wiki QNH article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QNH)) and sea level air pressure returns the altitude in meters, i.e. altimeter function.
#### Syntax
`bme280_math.altitude([self], P, QNH)`
#### Parameters
- (optional) `self` userdata or table structure so that the function can be directly called as object method, parameter is ignored in the calculation
- `P` measured pressure
- `QNH` current sea level pressure
#### Returns
altitude in meters of measurement point
## bme280_math.dewpoint()
For given temperature and relative humidity returns the dew point in celsius.
#### Syntax
`bme280_math.dewpoint([self], H, T)`
#### Parameters
- (optional) `self` userdata or table structure so that the function can be directly called as object method, parameter is ignored in the calculation
- `H` relative humidity in percent (100 means 100%)
- `T` temperate in celsius
#### Returns
dew point in celsisus
## bme280_math.qfe2qnh()
For given altitude converts the air pressure to sea level air pressure ([QNH](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QNH)).
#### Syntax
`bme280_math.qfe2qnh([self], P, altitude)`
#### Parameters
- (optional) `self` userdata or table structure so that the function can be directly called as object method, parameter is ignored in the calculation
- `P` measured pressure
- `altitude` altitude in meters of measurement point
#### Returns
sea level pressure
## bme280_math.read()
Reads the sensor and returns the temperature, the air pressure, the air relative humidity and see level air pressure when `altitude` is specified.
#### Syntax
`bme280_math.read(bme280sensor, registers, [altitude])`
#### Parameters
- `bme280sensor` - BME280 sensor user data returned by `bme280_math.setup()`
- `registers` - string of 8 bytes (chars) registers read from `BME280_REGISTER_PRESS`
- (optional) `altitude`- altitude in meters of measurement point. If provided also the air pressure converted to sea level air pressure is returned.
#### Returns
- `T` temperature in celsius
- `P` air pressure in hectopascals
- `H` relative humidity in percent
- (optional) `QNH` air pressure in hectopascals
Returns `nil` if the conversion is not successful.
## bme280_math.setup()
Initializes module. Initialization is mandatory before read values.
#### Syntax
`bme280_math.setup(registers, [temp_oss, press_oss, humi_oss, power_mode, inactive_duration, IIR_filter])`
#### Parameters
- registers - String of configuration registers read from the BME280 sensor. It consists of 6 bytes (chars) of `BME280_REGISTER_DIG_T`, 18 bytes (chars) `BME280_REGISTER_DIG_P` and optional (not present for BMP280 sensor) 8 bytes (chars) of `BME280_REGISTER_DIG_H1` (1 byte) and `BME280_REGISTER_DIG_H2` (7 bytes)
- (optional) `temp_oss` - Controls oversampling of temperature data. Default oversampling is 16x.
- (optional) `press_oss` - Controls oversampling of pressure data. Default oversampling is 16x.
- (optional) `humi_oss` - Controls oversampling of humidity data. Default oversampling is 16x
- (optional) `sensor_mode` - Controls the sensor mode of the device. Default sensor more is normal.
- (optional) `inactive_duration` - Controls inactive duration in normal mode. Default inactive duration is 20ms.
- (optional) `IIR_filter` - Controls the time constant of the IIR filter. Default filter coefficient is 16.
|`temp_oss`, `press_oss`, `humi_oss`|Data oversampling|
|-----|-----------------|
|0|Skipped (output set to 0x80000)|
|1|oversampling ×1|
|2|oversampling ×2|
|3|oversampling ×4|
|4|oversampling ×8|
|**5**|**oversampling ×16**|
|`sensor_mode`|Sensor mode|
|-----|-----------------|
|0|Sleep mode|
|1 and 2|Forced mode|
|**3**|**Normal mode**|
Using forced mode is recommended for applications which require low sampling rate or hostbased synchronization. The sensor enters into sleep mode after a forced readout. Please refer to BME280 Final Datasheet for more details.

#### Returns
- `bme280sensor` user data (`nil` if initialization has failed)
- `config` 3 (2 for BME280) field table with configuration parameters to be written to registers `BME280_REGISTER_CONFIG`, `BME280_REGISTER_CONTROL_HUM`, `BME280_REGISTER_CONTROL` consecutively
#### Example
