dht22 with relay irregular measurement and operation
-
Double dht22 with relay is working good but the 2 DHT's give logging irregular
H1= 50.20
H0= 75.70
H0= 75.80
T1= 23.90
H1= 50.30
T0= 21.40
H0= 75.70
T0= 21.50
H0= 75.90
T0= 21.40
H0= 75.80is it possible to measure in an sequence? Also the relay cannot be used by the button everytime I like, also immediate after the measurement it can be used. is there something wrong in the delay?
Here the code as it is now#include <SPI.h> #include <MySensor.h> #include <DHT.h> #include <Bounce2.h> #define CHILD_ID_HUM1 0 #define CHILD_ID_HUM2 1 #define CHILD_ID_TEMP1 3 #define CHILD_ID_TEMP2 4 // RelayWithActuator stuff #define RELAY_PIN 6 // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for relay #define BUTTON_PIN 7 // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for button #define CHILD_ID 5 // Id of the sensor child #define RELAY_ON 1 #define RELAY_OFF 0 Bounce debouncer = Bounce(); bool state; MySensor gw; MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID,V_LIGHT); #define HEARTBEAT 10 unsigned int timer = 0; // Sleep time between reads (in milliseconds) #define SLEEP_TIME 3000 DHT* dht[2]; byte sensorPin[2] = {3, 4}; float lastTemp[2] = {0.0, 0.0}; float lastHum[2] = {0.0, 0.0}; boolean metric = true; //MyMessage msgHum(CHILD_ID_HUM1, V_HUM); //MyMessage msgTemp(CHILD_ID_TEMP1, V_TEMP); void setup() { gw.begin(incomingMessage, AUTO, true); for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { dht[i] = new DHT; dht[i]->setup(sensorPin[i]); } gw.sendSketchInfo("HumidityAndRelay", "1.0"); gw.present(CHILD_ID_HUM1, S_HUM); gw.present(CHILD_ID_HUM2, S_HUM); gw.present(CHILD_ID_TEMP1, S_TEMP); gw.present(CHILD_ID_TEMP1, S_TEMP); // Setup the button and Activate internal pull-up pinMode(BUTTON_PIN,INPUT_PULLUP); // After setting up the button, setup debouncer debouncer.attach(BUTTON_PIN); debouncer.interval(5); // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_LIGHT); // Make sure relays are off when starting up digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, RELAY_OFF); // Then set relay pins in output mode pinMode(RELAY_PIN, OUTPUT); // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage) state = gw.loadState(CHILD_ID); digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, state?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF); timer = 0; metric = gw.getConfig().isMetric; } void loop() { gw.process(); timer++; if (timer > (SLEEP_TIME / HEARTBEAT)) { // Reset timer again and for the next timed loop timer = 0; for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { delay(dht[i]->getMinimumSamplingPeriod()); float temperature = dht[i]->getTemperature(); if (isnan(temperature)) { Serial.print(F("Failed reading temperature from DHT")); Serial.println(i); } else if (temperature != lastTemp[i]) { lastTemp[i] = temperature; if (!metric) { temperature = dht[i]->toFahrenheit(temperature); } //gw.send(msgTemp.set(temperature, i)); Serial.print(F("T")); Serial.print(i); Serial.print(F("= ")); Serial.println(temperature); } float humidity = dht[i]->getHumidity(); if (isnan(humidity)) { Serial.print("Failed reading humidity from DHT"); Serial.println(i); } else if (humidity != lastHum[i]) { lastHum[i] = humidity; //gw.send(msgHum.set(humidity, 1)); Serial.print(F("H")); Serial.print(i); Serial.print(F("= ")); Serial.println(humidity); } } } // Get the button update state (true if a change was detected) if (debouncer.update() && debouncer.read() == 0) { gw.send(msg.set(state?false:true), true); // Send new state and request ack back } gw.wait(HEARTBEAT); //sleep a bit } void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) { // We only expect one type of message from controller.

So I'm new to all this, however anytime I get funky things going on when I have multiple sensors on a node I found that introducing a delay in between the readings helped smooth things out. Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I have had some luck with delays. Also I built one to control my hot tub and I found noise from the pump messed things up, de-coupling capacitors became my friend after that.
