How do I handle Pinpoint calibration correctly?

Use the resetPosAndIMU() method while the robot is completely stationary and include a short delay (approx. 250-300ms) to allow the LED to turn green before starting movement.

Does this skill help with unit conversion?

Yes, it provides code snippets and logic to convert the Pinpoint's internal millimeter readings and radians into the inch-based coordinate systems used by libraries like Pedro Pathing.

Can I use I2C port 0 for the Pinpoint device?

No, port 0 on the Control Hub is reserved for the internal IMU. You should use ports 1, 2, or 3 for the Pinpoint computer.

What does a purple LED status mean on the Pinpoint?

A purple LED indicates that no pods are detected. You should check the cable connections for both your X and Y odometry pods.
