newbee question

#1 Post by the cosmic gate » 14 Nov 2015, 20:23

I just flashed my first ESP-1 , and the SSID ESP_01 is showing nice.
Now i need to connect, but askes for a pwd :( i already tried : 12345 etc but none of them works ?
Already googled 30min but cant find anyting , hope anybody can help me here :)

just flashed this, and reflashed the espeasy sketch.
but now the default SSID ESP_0 doesn't display anymore ? :(

What does the serial monitor shows after the reflash?

Okay i've got the esp-01 running now.
But the next problem ;) I connected the DHT-22 temp / hum sensor. But the value is : 0
When I connect the same sensor to the mysensors breadboard the value is 22degrees.

I connect the DHT-22 to the esp-01 gpo02 port and used 3.3v and 5v power (also separate from the esp) .
Anybody ?

Use 3,3 volt for ESp and DHT11.
Make sure there is an IDX/var not being zero as number.
When you add a device the standard IDX value is 0.
Change it to any number but not zero.
Then wait for 1 minute and refresh your browser screen.
Martinus told me in the beginnign that values are only shown if the IDX/var number is not 0.
This way you can test the sensor before doing any DMZ stuff.

I've done it just as discribed,but nothing:(

When i use this DHT-22 in my test mysensors , the sensor is working OK :(

I also read on this forum that for the ESP-01 firmware R39 is not okay , and R20 is the last one you need tot flash ?
Is this also for this DHT-22 etc ?

Soms extra information , this is the dht-22 module i use :http://www.ebay.com/itm/370853072056?rm ... noapp=true

R39 is workig fine for DHT11 in all my sensors nodes.
You use DHT22 I assume you selected DHT22 from the drop down menu.

Did you put in the pull up resistor on the data pin? I'm not too familiar with the ESP-1, but I am going to assume that it should work the same like the ESP-12E I'm using. Did you also select the right GPIO? From what I can see from the web, you have either GPIO0 or GPIO2.

Yes I tried it with the pull up (10k) resistor , and without .
As you can see in the screenshot I made I used and selected the GPIO2 .

That's exactly what I did , but the results are: NaN :(

Is there anybody with the same issue ?
Or somebody who can help me ?

Damnn there must be something wrong.
You also used an ESP-01 ? And how its connected : with or without an 10k pull-up?

Maybe the issue is that I use the DHT-22 board instead of the DHT-22 only

change today by using one of the brand new modemcu 's i recieved.
Connected die DHT22 on the GPO-2 port , and again : "nan" .

are there more people using this http://nl.aliexpress.com/item/DHT22-Dig ... eb201560_8 running ?

Or is the pcb where the DHT22 is connected the main issue ?

Does that DHT22 sensor still works on MYSENSOR?

No idea anymore for that DHT22.
Try other DHT11 if you have?
Other sensors on the same ESP port working?

I have DHT22 connected to ESP-01, ESP-12, Huzzah and NodeMcu E12 ... without any problem.
So, I wonder, what else is on that little board that holds the DHT22?
If it only connects the three pins to three of the four on the DHT, I do not understand the problem.
With ESP, you have to use 3.3 volts to power the DHT. The NodeMCU has pins with that voltage you can use.
On the data line, there must be a pull up resistor to 3.3 volt. A value of 10k is ok.

keep in mind that the NodeMCU uses an alternative pin numbering.

Please also have a look at the example in the wiki.

Hi,

Just for notice, I have also DHT22 sensor attached on my nodemcu board and after few days i got non value, data pin was attached to pin16, I change data pin to 2 and it is working now normal, last few days. Power is from board 3.3V sensor is connected without resistor.

I had the same 'nan' issues with my Wemos D1 mini boards and all my DHT11 sensors.
The fix is easy: You have to change a value in the _P005_DHT.ino sketch.

Change from "delayMicroseconds(40)" to "delayMicroseconds(20);" :

Code: Select all

        pinMode(Plugin_005_DHT_Pin, OUTPUT);
        // DHT start condition, pull-down i/o pin for 18ms
        digitalWrite(Plugin_005_DHT_Pin, LOW);              // Pull low
        delay(18);
        digitalWrite(Plugin_005_DHT_Pin, HIGH);             // Pull high
        delayMicroseconds(20); // was 40. With 40, sensor returns NaN most of the time...
        pinMode(Plugin_005_DHT_Pin, INPUT);                 // change pin to input
        delayMicroseconds(10);
The value 40 has to be changed to 20, as 40 microseconds is the maximum, and 20 the minimum. Choosing to use the maximum value as not a good choice. I think it really should be changed in the Github trunk code...
