MS45XX differential or gauge type of pressure sensor for e.g measuring airspeed.
This sensor module is using the MS45xxDO digital pressure sensor with readings via I2C. Needs to be a versions with 14bit pressure and 11bit temperature data output.
If the airspeed reading is badly calibrated, use the MS45XX_PRESSURE_SCALE to compensate. Use the MS45XX_AIRSPEED_SCALE only to change air density.

Module functions
Init Functions
These initialization functions are called once on startup.
Event Functions
These event functions are called in each cycle of the module event loop.
Periodic Functions
These functions are called periodically at the specified frequency from the module periodic loop.
- ms45xx_i2c_periodic()
- Frequency in Hz: 100.
- Autorun: LOCK
Periodic function automatically starts after init and can't be stopped.
