## Methods ## bme280.altitude()
###init() For given air pressure and sea level air pressure returns the altitude in meters as an integer multiplied with 100, i.e. altimeter function.

#### Syntax #### Syntax
`init(sda, scl)` `bme280.altitude(P, QNH)`
`init(sda, scl, temp_oss, press_oss, humi_oss, power_mode, inactive_duration, IIR_filter)`
#### Parameters #### Parameters
* `sda` - SDA pin - `P` measured pressure
* `scl` - SCL pin - `QNH` current sea level pressure
* (optional) `temp_oss` - Controls oversampling of temperature data. Default oversampling is 16x.
* (optional) `press_oss` - Controls oversampling of pressure data. Default oversampling is 16x. #### Returns
* (optional) `humi_oss` - Controls oversampling of humidity data. Default oversampling is 16x altitude in meters of measurement point
* (optional) `sensor_mode` - Controls the sensor mode of the device. Default sensor more is normal.

Reads the sensor and returns the air temperature in hectopascals as an integer multiplied with 1000 or `nil` when readout is not successful.
Current temperature is needed to calculate the air pressure so temperature reading is performed prior reading pressure data. Second returned variable is therefore current temperature.
#### Syntax
`bme280.baro()`
#### Parameters
none
#### Returns
- `P` air pressure in hectopascals multiplied by 1000
- `T` temperature in celsius as an integer multiplied with 100
## bme280.dewpoint()
For given temperature and relative humidity returns the dew point in celsius as an integer multiplied with 100.
#### Syntax
`bme280.dewpoint(H, T)`
#### Parameters
- `H` relative humidity in percent multiplied by 1000.
- `T` temperate in celsius multiplied by 100.
#### Returns
dew point in celsisus
## bme280.humi()
Reads the sensor and returns the air relative humidity in percents as an integer multiplied with 100 or `nil` when readout is not successful.
Current temperature is needed to calculate the relative humidity so temperature reading is performed prior reading pressure data. Second returned variable is therefore current temperature.
#### Syntax
`bme280.humi()`
#### Parameters
none
#### Returns
- `H` last relative humidity reading in % times 1000
- `T` temperature in celsius as an integer multiplied with 100
## bme280.init()
Initializes module. Initialization is mandatory before read values.
#### Syntax
`bme280.init(sda, scl, [temp_oss, press_oss, humi_oss, power_mode, inactive_duration, IIR_filter])`
#### Parameters
- `sda` - SDA pin
- `scl` - SCL pin
- (optional) `temp_oss` - Controls oversampling of temperature data. Default oversampling is 16x.
- (optional) `press_oss` - Controls oversampling of pressure data. Default oversampling is 16x.
- (optional) `humi_oss` - Controls oversampling of humidity data. Default oversampling is 16x
- (optional) `sensor_mode` - Controls the sensor mode of the device. Default sensor more is normal.
- (optional) `inactive_duration` - Controls inactive duration in normal mode. Default inactive duration is 20ms.
- (optional) `IIR_filter` - Controls the time constant of the IIR filter. Default fitler coefficient is 16.
