3 years ago The AM2302 is a digital sensor, performing conversion and compensation internally, so the reported value should be correct. What kind of measurement did you use as a reference? Regarding the offset feature: This could be benificial for all kinds of sensors, not just the AM2302, and is easy to implement. The other feature, controlling an output with the humidity reading, is a bit more complicated, because sensor outputs can be expected to fluctuate and that would also make the output unstable. The simplest solution would be to define a value when the output should be switched on, and a value when it should be switched off. That way, we'd have some hysteresis and the output should work reliably. For example: You want your drybox at around 35% humidity, so you start your heater at humidity 38%, and switch it of when it reaches 25% (keep in mind that the AM2302 measures relative humidity, so the value will drop dignificantly when temperature rises. All values are rough estimates, I have not tested this scenario).

Hello, I use your Plugin with many Features, but there is a little thing that i miss. My Sensor Am2302 works perfectly with Temp but the Humidity alwas about 8-10 percent to much.
Is there a possabillity to set an Offset corection to the values. Also would it be nice to have control my Drybox by Humidity Sensor for start /Stop Drying. . Thank You,for doing this good Job since.
Sorry for my bad English
