Very “original” method of counting the time intervals, not really compatible with Blynk
But aside from that (and posted unformatted code ) it should work - without Blynk. If it doesn’t, and you are sure the IN/OUT pin is correct , then check your dht, choose another one…
What I meant earlier and I think marvin means the same is that you have your pins wrong. For example on a wemos d1 pin D2 is gpio pin 4, so if I connect a sensor to pin D2 and then read pin ‘2’ I’ll get nothing because I’m reading the wrong pin.
so 1. check if you got it right
2. if you did and it fails, try another pin
3. if that fails too try another dht (it might be broken).
However you say it does work on a nodemcu so its fairly save to assume you got the pins wrong.
did you try everything else?
also: did you exclude each element from being faulty? (That is test each element you use separately inside a known and working configuration).
also, the fact that you get serial output from the board is a nice indicator that its not completely faulty. you just need to test each element separately until you figure out what’s going on.
another thing you can try (but it really should not make any difference) is define the input as ‘D2’ instead of ‘4’.
Here is the summary:
I connected ground with ground, power with 3v3 and data pin with pin 2 (#define DHTPIN 4).
Then, I tried using ground with ground, power with 3v3 and data pin with pin 4 (#define DHTPIN 2).
Then I tried ground with ground, power with 3v3 and data pin with pin 3 (#define DHTPIN 5).
In all above cases I got the same error message on serial monitor. What else should I try ?
maybe you should first go back to the basics and simply attach a LED to the port and see if it lights up when you set it high. Preferably let it blink so you know for sure it works and both HIGH/LOW are good
edit: Marvin was so kind to work the above suggestion out for you in detail
) it should work - without Blynk. If it doesn’t, and you are sure the IN/OUT pin is correct , then check your dht, choose another one…
