If you’re experiencing connectivity issues, it may be due to outdated libraries. Verify in that the `Arduino_ScienceJournal` and `Arduino_BMI270_BMM150` libraries are both updated to their latest version in the [Library Manager](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/5145457742236-Add-libraries-to-Arduino-IDE#library-manager) in Arduino IDE.
