Wio Link + Grove Temperature & Humidity failed read sensor

Hi All

I’m using my wio link + grove temp humidity and blynk, following post WIO Link with Blynk and Blynk with Seeed Wio Link? and this Blynk + wio link

My sketch is:
/*************************************************************
Download latest Blynk library here:

  Blynk is a platform with iOS and Android apps to control
  Arduino, Raspberry Pi and the likes over the Internet.
  You can easily build graphic interfaces for all your
  projects by simply dragging and dropping widgets.

  This example shows how value can be pushed from Arduino to

  WARNING :
  For this example you'll need Adafruit DHT sensor libraries:

void setup()
{
  // Debug console
  Serial.begin(9600);

  Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass, "192.168.88.100", 8442);
  // You can also specify server:
  //Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass, "blynk-cloud.com", 8442);
  //Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass, IPAddress(192,168,1,100), 8442);

  dht.begin();

  // Setup a function to be called every second
  timer.setInterval(1000L, sendSensor);
}

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
  timer.run();
}

And result in my console :
Failed to read from DHT sensor!
Failed to read from DHT sensor!
Failed to read from DHT sensor!
Failed to read from DHT sensor!

Thanks in advance!

@mustofa908 have you tested the Wio and Grove with the DHTtester sketch i.e. without Blynk?

Which port are you connecting the sensor to on the Wio?

In the 3rd “Community” link you listed I referred to MOSFET gated to GPIO 15 for “power” but take care with this and check with a multimeter.

Hi Costas
Thanks for your respons, I’ve tried using DHT sketch tester, but the result is same.[quote=“Costas, post:2, topic:14531”]

[/quote]

I am using digitalport 0 for this.

Can you give me a proper reference for this, as I am a newbie for development board.

To add the GPIO line where exactly should be added?

pinMode(15, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(15, 1);

Sorry if the question is very basic. Thanks in advance!

I don’t want to destroy your MCU or sensor.

Do you have a multimeter?

yes i have

@mustofa908 remove the sensor for now.

Add the following lines as the first lines in setup()

pinMode(15, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(15, 1); 

Check you have power to the data pins with your meter and if you do then try with the sensor in place.

Take care.
