[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]DHT11 Temperature and Humidity Sensor features a calibrated digital signal output with the temperature and humidity sensor complex,ensureing the high reliability and excellent long-term stability. A high-performance 8-bit microcontroller is connected. This sensor includes a resistive element and a sense of wet NTC temperature measuring devices. It has excellent quality, fast response, anti-interference ability and high cost performance advantages.

Copy the directory named ‘dht’ to directory /home/ubuntu/Arduino/libraries on pcDuino.
Restart the application Arduino IDE:
The main code is as following:
#include <core.h>
#include <dht11.h>
dht11 DHT11;
#define DHT11PIN 7
int H_Led = 2;
int T_Led = 3;
void setup()
{
pinMode(H_Led,OUTPUT);
pinMode(T_Led,OUTPUT);
printf("DHT11 Monitoring\n");
}
void loop()
{
int val = DHT11.read(DHT11PIN);
printf("Read sensor: %d\n", val);
switch (val)
{
case DHTLIB_OK:
printf("OK \n");
break;
case DHTLIB_ERROR_CHECKSUM:
printf("Checksum error\n");
break;
case DHTLIB_ERROR_TIMEOUT:
printf("Time out error\n");
break;
default:
printf("Unknown error\n");
break;
}
printf("Humidity (%): %f", (float)DHT11.humidity);
if((DHT11.humidity<=40)||(DHT11.humidity>=60))
digitalWrite(H_Led,HIGH);
else
digitalWrite(H_Led,LOW);
printf("Temperature (oC): %f", (float)DHT11.temperature);

else
digitalWrite(T_Led,LOW);
delay(2000);
}
