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= 75.80

    is 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

    #define BUTTON_PIN  7  // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for button

  • somebody any suggestions?



  • 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.
