# DHTNew
|
|
|
|
Arduino library for DHT11 and DHT22 (and compatible) with automatic sensor type recognition.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
DHTNEW is stable for both ARM and AVR. It is based upon the well tested DHTlib code.
|
|
This is the main development library of all my DHT libraries.
|
|
|
|
Supports DHT11, DHT22, DHT33, DHT44, AM2301, AM2302, AM2303 as these all have the same protocol.
|
|
Note there are differences e.g. DHT11 has no negative temperature, no decimals, and a longer wakeup time.
|
|
|
|
#### Sonoff Si7021
|
|
|
|
Since 0.4.14 there is **experimental** support for the Sonoff Si7021 .
|
|
No hardware yet to test this myself, but it is confirmed to work.(see #79)
|
|
Seems the Sonoff Si7021 sensor is very sensitive in the wakeup timing.
|
|
This behaviour needs to be investigated in the future.

## Interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Constructor
|
|
|
|
- **DHTNEW(uint8_t pin)** defines the dataPin of the sensor.
|
|
- **void reset()** might help to reset a sensor behaving badly. It does reset the library settings to default,
|
|
however it does not reset the sensor in a hardware way.
|
|
- **uint8_t getType()** 0 = unknown, 11 or 22.
|
|
In case of 0, **getType()** will try to determine type.
|
|
Since 0.4.14 type 70 is added for **experimental** Sonoff Si7021 support.
|
|
- **void setType(uint8_t type = 0)** allows to force the type of the sensor.
|
|
|
|
| type | sensors | notes |
|
|
|:------:|:---------------:|:---------------|
|
|
| 0 | not defined | |
|
|
| 11 | DHT11 | |
|
|
| 22 | DHT22 a.o | most others |
|
|
| 70 | Sonoff Si7021 | experimental |
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Base interface
|
|
|
|
- **int read()** reads a new temperature and humidity from the sensor
|
|
- **uint32_t lastRead()** returns milliseconds since last **read()**
|
|
- **float getHumidity()** returns last read value (float) or -999 in case of error.
|
|
Note this error value can be suppressed by **setSuppressError(bool)**.
|
|
- **float getTemperature()** returns last read value (float) or -999 in case of error.
|
|
Note this error value can be suppressed by **setSuppressError(bool)**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Offset
|
|
|
|
Adding offsets works well in normal range however they might introduce under- or overflow at the ends of the sensor range.
|
|
humidity is constrained to 0..100% in the code. For temperature such constrain would be type dependant, so not done.
|
|
|
|
- **void setHumOffset(float offset)** typical < ±5% RH.
|
|
- **void setTempOffset(float offset)** typical < ±2°C.
|
|
- **float getHumOffset()** idem.
|
|
- **float getTempOffset()** idem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Control
|
|
|
|
Functions to adjust the communication with the sensor.
|
|
|
|
- **void setDisableIRQ(bool b )** allows or suppresses interrupts during core read function to keep timing as correct as possible. **Note AVR + MKR1010**
|
|
- **bool getDisableIRQ()** returns the above setting. Default **true**.
|
|
- **void setWaitForReading(bool b )** flag to enforce a blocking wait.
|
|
- **bool getWaitForReading()** returns the above setting.
|
|
- **void setReadDelay(uint16_t rd = 0)** To tune the time it waits before actual read. This reduces the blocking time.
|
|
Default depends on type. 1000 ms (dht11) or 2000 ms (dht22).
|
|
set readDelay to 0 will reset to datasheet values AFTER a call to **read()**.
|
|
- **uint16_t getReadDelay()** returns the above setting.
|
|
- **void powerDown()** pulls dataPin down to reduce power consumption
|
|
- **void powerUp()** restarts the sensor, note one must wait up to two seconds.
|
|
- **void setSuppressError(bool b)** suppress error values of -999 => you need to check the return value of read() instead.
|
|
This is used to keep spikes out of your graphs / logs.
|
|
- **bool getSuppressError()** returns the above setting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Operation
|
|
|
|
See examples
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### TIME_OUT
|
|
|
|
If consistent TIMOUT_C or TIMEOUT_D occur during reading a sensor,
|
|
one could try if allowing interrupts solves the issue **DHT.setDisableIRQ(false)**.
|
|
|
|
This solved this problem at least on
|
|
- AVR boards - is build into the constructor
|
|
- MKR1010 Wifi - see https://github.com/RobTillaart/DHTNew/issues/67
|
|
(added as comment in the examples)
|
|
|
|
In version 0.4.10 the TIMEOUT_C is extended from 70-90 us to even suppress the TIMEOUT_C
|
|
even more. See discussion and tests in https://github.com/RobTillaart/DHTNew/issues/67.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Serial
|
|
|
|
The MKR1010Wifi board need to wait for Serial at startup if you want to monitor it
|
|
from the IDE. Adding the line ```while(!Serial):``` fixes this. (added to the examples).
|
|
|
|
There might be more boards that need this line to work properly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### ESP8266 & DHT22
|
|
|
|
- The DHT22 sensor has some problems in combination with specific pins of the ESP8266. See more details
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
## History
|
|
|
|
DHTNEW has some new features compared to the DHTlib code.
|
|
|
|
1. The constructor has a pin number, so the one sensor - one object paradigm is chosen.
|
|
So you can now make a DHTNEW object bathroom(4), kitchen(3), etc.
|
|
2. The **read()** function now reads both DHT11 and DHT22 sensors and selects the right
|
|
math per sensor based upon the bit patterns.
|
|
3. An **offset** can be set for both temperature and humidity to have a first-order linear
|
|
calibration in the class itself. Of course, this introduces a possible risk of
|
|
under- or overflow.
|
|
For a more elaborated or non-linear offset, I refer to my multimap class.
|
|
4. **lastRead()** keeps track of the last time the sensor is read. If this is not too long ago
|
|
one can decide not to read the sensors but use the current values for temperature and humidity.
|
|
This saves up to 20+ milliseconds for a DHT11 or 5+ milliseconds for a DHT22. Note that these sensors
|
|
should have 1-2 seconds between reads according to specification.
|
|
In the future, this functionality could be inside the library by setting a time threshold
|
|
(e.g. 1 second by default) to give more stable results.
|
|
5. Added **interrupt enable/disable flag** to prevent interrupts disturb timing of DHT protocol.
|
|
Be aware that this may affect other parts of your application.
|
|
6. (0.1.7) added an automatic check of lastRead in the read call. If request a read to fast it will just return OK.
|
|
7. (0.1.7) added **waitForReading flag** (kudos to Mr-HaleYa) to let the sensor explicitly
|
|
wait until a new value can be read.
|
|
8. (0.2.0) Temperature and humidity are private now, use **getTemperature()** and **getHumidity()**
|
|
9. (0.2.1) Adjusted the bit timing threshold to work around issue #11
|
|
10. (0.2.2) added **ERROR_SENSOR_NOT_READY** and differentiated timeout errors.
|
|
11. (0.3.0)
|
|
removed interrupt flag, now the library always disables interrupts during
|
|
the clocking of the bits.
|
|
Added getReadDelay & setReadDelay to tune reading interval. Check the example code.
|
|
Adjusted the timing in the wake-up part of the protocol.
|
|
Added more comments to describe the protocol.
|
|
12. (0.3.1)
|
|
added **powerDown()** and **powerUp()** for low power applications. Note that after **powerUp()**
|
|
the user must wait for two seconds before doing a read(). Just like after a (re)boot.
|
|
Note: The lib does not (yet) control the power pin of the sensor.
|
|
Discussion see https://github.com/RobTillaart/DHTNew/issues/13
|
|
13. (0.3.2)
|
|
Added **setSuppressError()** and **getSuppressError()** so the library will not output -999
|
|
but the last known valid value for temperature and humidity.
|
|
This flag is useful to suppress 'negative spikes' in graphs or logs.
|
|
Default the error values are not suppressed to be backwards compatible.
|
|
Added **#ifndef** around **DHTLIB_INVALID_VALUE** so the default -999 can be overruled
|
|
compile time to set another error value e.g. -127 or -1 whatever suits the project.
|
|
14. (0.3.3)
|
|
Refactored the low level **readSensor()** as the **BIT SHIFT ERROR** issue #29 and issue #11 popped up again.
|
|
It was reproduced "efficiently" with an ESP32 and by using long wires.
|
|
Fixed with an explicit digitalWrite(dataPin, HIGH) + delayMicroseconds() to have enough time between
|
|
pulling the line HIGH and polling for the line LOW.
|
|
15. (0.3.4)
|
|
Added **waitFor(state, timeout)** to more precisely follow the datasheet in terms of timing.
|
|
Reintroduced the **interrupt enable/disable flag** as forced noInterrupts()
|
|
could break the timing of the DHT protocol / micros() - seen on AVR.
|
|
16. (0.4.0)
|
|
Added **DHTLIB_WAITING_FOR_READ** as return value of read => minor break of interface
|
|
17. (0.4.1)
|
|
Added Arduino-CI support + **gettype()** now tries to determine type if not known.
|
|
18. (0.4.2)
|
|
Fix negative temperatures. Tested with DHTNew_debug.ino and hex dump in .cpp and a freezer.
|
|
Note: testing in a freezer is not so good for humidity readings.
|
|
19. (0.4.3)
|
|
Added **reset()** to reset internal variables when a sensor blocks this might help.
|
|
Added **lastRead()** to return time the sensor is last read. (in milliseconds).
|
|
20. (0.4.4)
|
|
DO NOT USE incorrect negative temp.
|
|
21. (0.4.5)
|
|
Prevent -0.0 when negative temp is 0;
|
|
DO NOT USE as it maps every negative temp to zero.
|
|
22. (0.4.6)
|
|
Fixed negative temperature (again).
|
|
23. (0.4.7)
|
|
fix #60 negative temperatures below -25.5°C + readme.md.
|
|
24. (0.4.8)
|
|
fixes to improve Arduino-lint.
|
|
25. (0.4.9)
|
|
add optional flag DHTLIB_VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE.
|
|
26. (0.4.10)
|
|
updated build-CI to do compile test - UNO, due, zero, Leonardo, m4, esp32, esp8266, mega2560.
|
|
updated readme.md - added badges and remarks after testing with MKR1010 Wifi.
|
|
updated TIMEOUT_C from 70 -> 90 us to minimize its occurrence - See https://github.com/RobTillaart/DHTNew/issues/67.
|
|
added ```while(!Serial);``` in examples to they work for MKR1010 Wifi.
|
|
27. (0.4.11)
|
|
update library.json, license, minor edits (cleanup), unit tests
|
|
28. (0.4.12)
|
|
Fix #72, delayMicroseconds() for wakeUp
|
|
29. (0.4.13)
|
|
Fix #76, disable interrupts for ESP32.
|
|
30. (0.4.14)
|
|
added experimental support for Si7021.
|
|
31. (0.4.15)
|
|
Fix #81, recognize DHT22 as type 70. Add minimal wakeup delay.
|
|
32. (0.4.16)
|
|
Fix #84 correct the reading of type 70 for Sonoff Si7021.
