  • Power off the robot before connecting any sensor.
  • Connect SDA→P20, SCL→P19, plus 3V and GND.
  • Power on and connect over BLE (or enable Mock mode).

Step 2 — Scan the I²C bus

Probes addresses 0x00–0x7F. Detected devices light up green.

Step 3 — Identify your sensors

Each detected address may match more than one common chip. Pick the one you have.

Step 4 — Test & expose

Live readings (stubbed if firmware doesn't support each sensor). Click Expose to share with other labs.
