I am using a SHT30 and a BMP280 and the BMP280 temp is reading -197F The baro appears to be reading fine. The SHT30 is working as expected. If the BMP280 is faulty what sensor is commonly used to measure barometric pressure?

To me this looks like some kind of translation error. What does the OLED say? BP
