Maker UNO DHT11 Alphanumeric Display

Introduction

In this tutorial, it is demonstrated how to display the DHT11, temperature and humidity value on the alphanumeric display using Maker Uno.

Hardware Preparation

This is the list of items used in the video.

Circuit

There is no additional circuit is required since we are using the grove sensor. The DHT11 is connected to port D2 and the alphanumeric display is connected to port i2C of the grove base V2.

Code

The code for this tutorial is as shown below

#include 
#include "grove_alphanumeric_display.h"
#include "DHT.h"

#define DHTPIN 2     // what digital pin we're connected to

#define DHTTYPE DHT11   // DHT 11

Seeed_Digital_Tube tube;

DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  Wire.begin();
  dht.begin();
  
  tube.setTubeType(TYPE_2,TYPE_2_DEFAULT_I2C_ADDR);

  tube.setBrightness(10);
  tube.setBlinkRate(BLINK_OFF);
  

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
  welcome();

  float h = dht.readHumidity();
  // Read temperature as Celsius (the default)
  float t = dht.readTemperature();

  tube.displayString("Humidity: ",100);
  tube.displayNum(h,100);
  delay(500);
  tube.displayString("Temperature: ", 100);
  tube.displayNum(t,100);
  delay(500);
  tube.displayString("°C ", 100);
  delay(500);

}

void welcome()
{
    tube.displayString("MAKER UNO + DHT11 + ALPHA DISPLAY", 100);
    delay(500);
  
}
