      Hello,

      As I tried to read both the altitude and the pressure from the Pysense, I notice these are not correct.
      Just the pressure reads:
      0_1508185987396_Image 1.PNG
      which is plausable at the moment.

      Just the height: 0_1508186074559_Image 2.PNG
      which is totally wrong (I know I'm in the Netherlands, but it is not the underworld)

      Reading both ( altitude instantiated first) pressure plausible, hight just 25km off
      0_1508186281838_Image 3.PNG
      code: 0_1508186363126_Image 3a.PNG
      and last the other way around:
      0_1508186480224_Image 4.PNG
      0_1508186500168_Image 4b.PNG
      Pressure is more then double the correct value, Altitude is back far below sealevel.

      My questions:
      Is it not possible to read both values this way?
      Do I have to correct the hight in some way (for that is wrong in all cases)?

      Kind regards,
      Peter

        I found out that like below, the results are plausible.
        No clue why the above mentioned way does not work, but at least this is a workaround.
