Hi There,
I am building a 'rig' to log readings from 5x load cells as fast as possible. I went with I2C Qwiic Scale sensors to use with my OpenLog Artemis board but discovered the sensors all appear to have the same fixed I2C address, which is preventing me from properly reading them on I2C bus.
I've since purchased a Qwiic Mux board which I've gotten to work on my Arduino Uno, but I wanted to see if there is any way to use Qwiic Mux with OpenLog Artemis somehow? I've included materials, photo of current setup and example Arduino code below.
Thanks in advance for your help!
