adding another rele module and DHT library

9 years 2 months ago #143 by Vellur
Hi.
First of all thank you for this amazing website!

I have couple of questions what i couldnt figure out. How I can add second relay module to exiting node. Code says: Arduino Digital I/O pin number for first relay (second on pin+1 etc), but i cant get it to work. no errors, just I cant see it from the web.

Another question: What DHT library you use with temperature/humidity sensor. I have DHT11 device and I just get errors when I try to compile. I use adafruit's but I think its wrong one. Error: 'DHT' does not name a type. I try to use your example.

I hope you can help me. I think I just have missed something out...

Hi, use DHT library under external_libraries in my github
github.com/iot-playground/Arduino/tree/m...r/external_libraries


For two relays (pin 4 and 5) try this (code was not tested, but you will get the idea):
/*
 V1.0 - first version
 V1.1 - adopt to new library

#include <Esp8266EasyIoT.h>

Esp8266EasyIoT esp; 

SoftwareSerial serialEsp(10, 11);



#define RELAY_1  4  // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for first relay (second on pin+1 etc)
#define RELAY_ON 1  // GPIO value to write to turn on attached relay
#define RELAY_OFF 0 // GPIO value to write to turn off attached relay


void setup()

  serialEsp.begin(9600);
  Serial.begin(115200);  

  Serial.println("EasyIoTEsp init");

  esp.begin(incomingMessage, 3, &serialEsp, &Serial);
  //esp.begin(incomingMessage, 3, &serialEsp);

  pinMode(RELAY_1, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(RELAY_1 + 1, OUTPUT);
  
  esp.present(1, S_DIGITAL_OUTPUT);
  esp.present(2, S_DIGITAL_OUTPUT);
  
}

void loop()
{
  esp.process();
}

void incomingMessage(const Esp8266EasyIoTMsg &message) {
  // We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway.

  Serial.println("New message");
  if (message.type==V_DIGITAL_VALUE) {
    // Change relay state
    digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, message.getBool()?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);

    Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:");
    Serial.print(message.sensor);
    Serial.print(", New status: ");
    Serial.println(message.getBool());
  } 
}
