      @Bangee ok, now I’m confused ;o)
      Bild Text

      The first 5 lines I tried during my MM was working but nothing happend, i had to wait 2 minutes and it shows just a new comment line. After i stopped my MM it was working like a charm (last two lines). What I’m doing wrong?..

        I don’t now atm :-)

        it looks like something is blocking the dht_var script when your MM is running

        Do you have error in your MM logs?

            I’ve tried this on an other pi and it works …

            can you uncomment line 33 in node_helper.js to check if he tries to write something in to the logs?

            	console.log("Log: " + temp + " - " + hum);

                Right. Please replace the word temp with arr[1] and hum with arr[0] in line 33 in node_helper.js

                    Okay, so it definitely fails retrieving data from the sensor, but the error handling does not catch this failure.

                      I have test it with two dht22. One was mine and one I received from @Bangee who was so kind to test it before sending it and it was working at his home, but when I tried it at my home it wasn’t working. So I have no Idea what can be the failure.

                        Hi ,
                        so I just figure it out, that the motiondetector by alexyak blocking the DHT22 script. If I disable this module my DHT 22 works perfect. Somebody knows what make this problem?

                          that’s very strange!?!
                          Is this module working with a PIR Sensor or a Webcam?
                          Im using Paviro’s PIR Sensor to turn on an off my monitor.

                            With picamera. I installed MM on my other pi (completely new installation) and i got the same problem after i installed the motion detector. So I disabled on my MM the motion detector and it works fine on both pi’s. It’s very strange ;o(

                                I am using a PIR sensor.
                                So i can’t reproduce it.

                                  Dear guys,

                                  Ive tried to run this skript,nevertheless it’s showing me ‘undefined’ when I am running it in MM-Mode.
                                  Ive already checked the Pin setup and it should be right. Furthermore Ive checked your advises in the posts above me.

                                  Do you have an idea how to fix this error or even how to get an idea where the error is? :D

                                  Kind regards :)

                                    can you post a pic of your wiring?

                                    when you run the command sudo ./dht_var direct in your console, what happens?

                                      i have also the problem that the sensor shows only undefined.
                                      if i run your dht_var it shows nothing…
                                      sudo ./dht_var 2 5 returns after 5 seconds without any message…

                                      found out that it is only not working if i have enabled the PIR-Sensor Modul…

                                        @MxBln I have the same question. It works, but it shows me way to high temperatures and humidity. How did you do it with a DTC11 ?

                                          same here, shows loading for a very long time and ‘undefined’ afterwards

                                          the sensor is working, see here:

                                          0_1496151901454_upload-79b4ac08-535a-4fe6-848e-99f80fe7650d

                                          any idea?

                                            Are there any news for this module? I have the exact same thing with this module and the DHT22. Sometimes it shows everything correct and then it shows either “undefined”, nothing or ~ “-3200°C”. So it changes almost everytime it refreshes.
                                            I also use the PIR module like Bangee but it doesnt matter if i have this modules activeted or not …the problem still is there.

                                            sudo ./dht_var 22 5
                                            

                                            doesn’t do anything. It just returns with no massage like it does by schmo90.
                                            Hope somebody can help us :)
