I have a DHT22 Temperature/Humidity sensor. I can connect it wirelessly (And give it power), and read Temp and Humidity off it if I load some code from MySensors.org and use their version of the DHT library.
If I flash my sensor with some code from Adafruit and use their DHT library, I can connect the sensor via usb, run PLC-DAQ on the computer it is connected to, and the Temp and Humidity values are passed into an Excel spreadheet.
I am looking for some code to allow my sensor to connect wirelessly, then pass the data to PLC-DAQ.
I got the code below to compile by copying and pasting the relevant parts of the Setup and Void functions (Again, terminology may be off) from the Mysensors.org and Adafruit code, then renaming all instances of the Adafruit DHT to DHTP. If you look in the code below, all the lines that end with // are the ones I edited. Except the ones where it's obviously a comment from the developer.
I also had to rename one of the classes (Adafruit version of DHT.h, may be using the wrong terminology) to DHTP.h and DHTP.cpp.
I have included the code I reworked below. Here is a link to the working Adafruit code http://108.51.175.78:8069/shelli-rae/sensor_plx_daq.ino , and here is a link to the working Mysensors.org code http://108.51.175.78:8069/shelli-rae/sensor_humidity_vera.ino
If I flash my Arduino with either one and use their version of the DHT.h library either respective function works fine.
Thank you for any help/suggestions.
