Viewing Celsius Temperature Sensor Readings on an ArduSub Vehicle
Introduction
The Celsius Fast-Response, ±0.03°C Temperature Sensor (I2C) is a high-accuracy, fast-response temperature sensor that comes sealed and ready to use for temperature profiling, lab measurements, and more! It can be installed on an ArduSub vehicle (such as a BlueROV2) as another sensor in addition to the pressure sensor (such as a Bar30) for depth measurements by connecting it directly to the Navigator Flight Controller, with no I2C bus splitter needed.
Parts and Tools
No additional parts are needed when connecting to a Navigator Flight Controller. If used with older flight controllers, a JST GH to DF13 Adapter may be required.
Wiring Connections
1. Connect the Celsius JST GH plug to an open I2C port on the Navigator Flight Controller, following the installation steps.
