This can't work well. Your interrupt is set on pin1 - 2 = int-1?
What happens when you remove the pir and use a switch instead?
-
@n3ro , what is wrong at your last test? The PIR is reporting 0 and 1, and from time to time there is a temp/hum report as well.
@rvendrame in my last test the pir sends endless 0 and dont sleep
-
Which arduino PIN do you use to connect the PIR?
-
Perfect. If it is working fine with a switch --- Maybe your PIN is triggering false positives? Or maybe the PIR output is floating a bit, and arduino is triggering it more than it should?
-
If a switch works than the only could be the pir itself. You have enabled the pull-up resistor so an open collector should not give floats.
You already told that a sketch with a pir only worked fine?
Well, i can test what happens with my dht22 and a pir tomorrow (with your sketch).

@Sweebee thy this would be very nice :)
You find my sketch here:
https://github.com/n3roGit/MySensors_n3ro/tree/master/MotionSensor_DHT_light_battery_modyou are sending an update on the PIR status every time the arduino wakes from a sleep, which you don't need.
Also, and this probably isn't a problem right now, but will case a problem later, use unsigned subtraction in your millis( ) timers
could not see where you were using the library, so I commented it out below, not having it on my computer
I also made a few more notes in the code:

you are sending an update on the PIR status every time the arduino wakes from a sleep, which you don't need.

The unused code in the sketch is because i have reduced the used functions to the minimum to debug it better. The full sketch has LDR and battery lifetime output too.i have added some extra output in the modified sketch:

you dont need this:

try like this, removing the timer, just use the sleep period t update temp/humidity (untested):

when i use this sketch the PIR works but the DHT cant read:Failed reading temperature from DHT
Failed reading humidity from DHT -
check the connections
-
check the connections
@BulldogLowell the wires are OK.
In sleep the DHT cant warm-up. so the dht need 2 sec before read. when i dont use the delay i cant read it.
i dont understand why the interrupt didnt work with the enabled delay.
do you have tested on a arduino?
-
https://github.com/n3roGit/MySensors_n3ro/tree/master/MotionSensor_DHT_light_battery_mod
now its working. when i use PIN4 for DHT.:)
-
@n3ro, i'm glad you fixed it. DHT was on PIN3 before, right? Pin 2 & Pin3 are connected to the interrupts, maybe this was the problem.
@rvendrame yes i think so. but now its ok =)
