elementprohd / weather--station Goto Github PK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Bootup weatherstation
2. Watch Blinking LED (red)
3. It stops, the whole unit freezes

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


Note: There are a couple of While loops in the code
which waits for some event. When that does not happen,
the code hangs in there. This is related to the DHT11 sensor code
and needs to be addressed.

Fix: Should change while loop to retries and reinitilization.

There should be
    byte dht_dat[5];
instead of
    byte dht_dat[4];

because

//now ready for data reception... pick up the 5 bytes coming from
//   the sensor
    for (i=0; i<5; i++)
        dht_dat[i] = read_dht_dat();

otherwise there will be buffer overflow problem which I had and had no idea why 
my int variable used as a counter had weird data.
