Hi all,

I'm using the Raspberry Pi to test the accelerometer and Pi HAT and I met a problem while following the tutorial provided by Tinycircuits. After installing all the packages mentioned in the tutorial, I run an example code and I got an error that said '"Adafruit-PlatformDetect version 3.40.3 was unable to identify the board and/or microcontroller running the Linux platform. Please be sure you have the latest packages running:'pip3 install --upgrade adafruit-blinka adafruit-platformdetect'". I run the command and it said the requirement was already satisfied. Could anyone please help me fix this error so that I can keep using the HAT and next the accelerometer? Thanks.

Best,
Yuntao

I was able to get that example working fine on my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B V1.2.

Can you provide the following?

• Board name
• Board version
• OS name
• OS version

I'm using the AST1001 accelerometer and the wireling Pi HAT. The Raspberry Pi I'm using is the same as yours and I installed the newest version of the OS. I just use a new SD card and downloaded the newest OS in it and run this OS on Raspberry Pi 3 v1.2 board.

Could you try following the steps in this link? https://stackoverflow.com/a/74147334

What is the value of 'revision' in the output of the first command?
