Hi. I have a problem with showing figures of the temperature. When I just start an arduino it shows the temperature in web browser but after a few seconds it shows 0.0. But in app on my phone it works good. How could I solve this problem? Thank you.
can you share the code you are using?

And I have some problems more:
- A have a relay on schedule, it’s working, but not properly, so it’s turning “off”, but doesn’t turn “on” the next day.
- If relay “on” and electricity go down, and then electricity come back, relay stays “off”, however by the schedule it should be “on”.
- It’s always go offline after some time, so you need to restart an arduino.
first delete all the widget from your dashboard. upload this code on your device https://github.com/myDevicesIoT/Cayenne-MQTT-Arduino/blob/master/examples/CommunitySubmitted/DHT/DHT.ino and add the widgets populated by it.
you mean you have two separate schedules to turn OFF and turn ON?
you can store the last of the relay in the EEPROM of the arduino and then read and write the last state to the relay on restart if the arduino.
check your serial monitor for what is causing the issue of disconnect.
Thanks for the sketch. About two separate schedules, I don’t know, it’s look like that:
I will try EEPROM and check serial monitor, but I could do it on weekends. Thank you ones again.
the image you shared does not provide much information on what you are trying to do.
Sorry))) if I understand right, it’s two different schedules.
it should work if they are two separate schedules/events.
So it’s better to make 2 separate schedules or just one?
you have to add two separate schedules for each action at different time.
Yep, that’s what I’ve done, but it’s turning OFF but doesn’t turn ON. Maybe because it’s goes offline every time?
can you PM me your email_id.
Hi again.
I’ve try the sketch that you gave me, it doesn’t work.
/*
This sketch connects to the Cayenne server using an ESP8266 WiFi module as a shield connected via a hardware serial to an Arduino.
The CayenneMQTT Library is required to run this sketch. If you have not already done so you can install it from the Arduino IDE Library Manager.
Steps:
1. Install the ESP8266SerialLibrary.zip library via the Arduino IDE (Sketch->Include Library->Add .ZIP Library) from the Cayenne extras/libraries
folder (e.g. My Documents\Arduino\libraries\CayenneMQTT\extras\libraries) to compile this example.
2. Connect the ESP8266 as a shield to your Arduino. This example uses the Serial1 hardware serial pins available on the Mega. You can also try
using a software serial, though it may be less stable.
3. Set the Cayenne authentication info to match the authentication info from the Dashboard.
4. Set the network name and password.
5. Compile and upload the sketch.
6. A temporary widget will be automatically generated in the Cayenne Dashboard. To make the widget permanent click the plus sign on the widget.
NOTE: This code requires ESP8266 firmware version 1.0.0 (AT v0.22) or later.

Sorry, all good, was my mistake, I forgot to put dht.begin(); sorry
Glad to hear it is working now.
