The `dht` sensor platform allows you to get the current temperature and humidity from a DHT11, DHT22, or AM2302 device.
|
|
|
|
To use your DHTxx sensor in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
platform: dht
|
|
sensor: DHT22
|
|
pin: 23
|
|
monitored_conditions:
|
|
- temperature
|
|
- humidity
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **sensor** (*Required*): The sensor type, supported devices are DHT11, DHT22, and AM2302.
|
|
- **pin** (*Required*): The pin the sensor is connected to.
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): The name of the sensor.
|
|
- **monitored_conditions** array (*Required*): Conditions to monitor. Available conditions are only *temperature* and *humidity*.
|
|
- **temperature_offset** (*Optional*): Add or subtract a value from the temperature.
|
|
- **humidity_offset** (*Optional*): Add or subtract a value from the humidity.
|
|
|
|
The name of the pin to which the sensor is connected has different names on different platforms. 'P8_11' for Beaglebone, '23' for Raspberry Pi.

|
|
|
An example for a Raspberry Pi 3 with a DHT22 sensor connected to GPIO4 (pin 7):
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: dht
|
|
sensor: DHT22
|
|
pin: 4
|
|
temperature_offset: 2.1
|
|
humidity_offset: -3.2
|
|
monitored_conditions:
|
|
- temperature
|
|
- humidity
|
|
```
