Combining DHT and Relay issues



  • I am having some troubles combining two sets of code. I am getting it to be recognized in domoticz and read the temp of the DHT and it sees the relay and I can add it. The issue is I cannot trigger the relay on and off. It works fine with just the relay code, but as soon as I inject the DHT code this issues arises. Any ideas?

    At first glance, it appears to be caused by the sleep. Try using the gw.wait command as it will still process incoming messages then. The other option is to use the millis function to send temp/humidity on a regular basis and don't use a sleep or wait function at all.

    Cheers

  • oh this is a great call. trying
