add a HX711

[maelisen]

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to modify the code to add a second HX711?
thank you in advance

Hi maelisen,
of course it is. you just have to create a second (third, fourth,...) variable where you are going to store it.
For example:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO  # import GPIO
from hx711 import HX711  # import the class HX711

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)  # set GPIO pin mode to BCM numbering
my_hx_1 = HX711(dout_pin=21, pd_sck_pin=20)  # create a first hx
my_hx_2 = HX711(dout_pin=23, pd_sck_pin=24)  # create a second hx
my_hx_3 = HX711(dout_pin=25, pd_sck_pin=26)  # create a third hx
print(my_hx_1.get_raw_data_mean())  # get raw data reading from hx711 number 1
print(my_hx_2.get_raw_data_mean())  # get raw data reading from hx711 number 2
print(my_hx_3.get_raw_data_mean())  # get raw data reading from hx711 number 3
GPIO.cleanup()

Just change the pin numbers in the code for appropriate based on your wiring.
Any issues pls let me know.
