Sw xtr 27: MES5 sensor reading

Basic example that turns on, reads and turn off the sensor. Measured parameters are stored in the corresponding class variables and printed by the serial monitor.

Required Materials

- 1 Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Water Xtreme - 1 MES5 sensor

Notes

- This example is only valid for Waspmote v15

    ----------- [Sw_xtr_27] - MES5 sensor reading --------------------

    Explanation: Basic example that turns on, reads and turn off the
    sensor. Measured parameters are stored in the corresponding class
    variables and printed by the serial monitor.

    Measured parameters:
      - Temperature
      - Sludge blanket
      - Suspended solids
      - Turbidity FAU
