DHT11 Thinkspeak

The document discusses configuring the ESP8266 microcontroller to send sensor data from a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor to the ThingSpeak cloud platform. It provides steps to set up a ThingSpeak account and channel to receive and visualize the sensor data. It also outlines connecting the DHT11 sensor to the ESP8266 and writing code to read the sensor values, connect to WiFi, and post the data to the ThingSpeak channel.

DAY 4 /SESSION 3

ESP8266 & ThingSpeak Cloud Platform


Overall Diagram:

Thingspeak:
ThingSpeak is an open-source IoT analytics platform service which allows users to
communicate with internet enabled devices. It facilitates data access, retrieval and logging of
data by providing an API to both the devices and social network websites. It allows users to
aggregate, visualize, and analyze live data streams in the cloud. The user can send data to
ThingSpeak from any device(ESP8266), create instant visualizations of live data, and send
alerts using web services like Twitter and Twilio. With MATLAB analytics inside ThingSpeak,
you can write and execute MATLAB code to perform preprocessing, visualizations, and
analyses. ThingSpeak enables engineers and scientists to prototype and build IoT systems
without setting up servers or developing web software.
DHT11:

DHT11 Image with Pin Details


DHT11 digital temperature and humidity sensor is a composite Sensor contains a calibrated
digital signal output of the temperature and humidity. Application of a dedicated digital modules
collection technology and the temperature and humidity sensing technology, to ensure that the
product has high reliability and excellent long-term stability. The sensor includes a resistive
sense of wet components and an NTC temperature measurement device, and connected with a
high-performance 8-bit microcontroller.
Data Format:
DHT11 uses a simplified single-bus communication. Single bus that has only one data line, the
system of data exchange, controlled by a single bus to complete. Device (master or slave)
through an open-drain or tri-state port connected to the data line to allow the device does not
send data to release the bus, while other devices use the bus; single bus usually require an
external one about 5.1kΩ pull-up resistor, so that when the bus is idle, its status is high.
Because they are the master-slave structure, and only when the host calls the slave, the slave
can answer, the host access devices must strictly follow the single-bus sequence, if the chaotic
sequence, the device will not respond to the host.
Single bus to transfer data defined DATA For communication and synchronization between the
microprocessor and DHT11, single-bus data format, a transmission of 40 data (The 8bit
humidity integer data + 8bit the Humidity decimal data +8 bit temperature integer data + 8bit
fractional temperature data +8 bit parity bit)
