Description

This caused stirring and od-reading to be able to be run independently, but together would produce:

  • errors in RPM (40_000)
  • "hat not detected" errors
  • all self-tests pass, but error in "Reference photodiode is in the correct position"

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by investigating the Hall sensor and I2C interaction on the Raspberry Pi, reproducing the independent-versus-combined runs and checking the listed RPM, hat-detection, and photodiode self-test failures. Done means the two operations can run together without these errors.
