      Hi,

      I connected a SHT31-D from Adafruit to my LoPy using I2C.

      I was able to set the device to measuring data, but reading the datastream doesn't make sense to me.

      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 2)
      b'e\xac'
      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 2)
      b'e\xb1'
      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 4)
      b'e\xb1-c'
      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 4)
      b'e\x9c\xe7c'
      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 4)
      b'e\xac"c'
      i2c.readfrom(0x44, 4)
      b'e\xa7\xc8c'

      What is the output saying?

        Output is saying: I'm in a binary format. ;o) That's why the "b" letter is in front of the string '.........'. You can convert it - this should be helpful https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/pyboard/library/ubinascii.html and here https://forum.pycom.io/topic/154/readable-wifi-mac-address

        The machine is working as good as it's code.

          I know what it is. It is byte output.
          I was confused because of the presence of ascii output and hex (\x) output.
