Help with the SHT30-P - Waterproof Humidity and temperature probe

ESPHome
1

I need Help with my new SHT30-P - Waterproof Humidity and temperature probe + espWroom-32?

I cant find what code to use in esphome
Do I absolutely need to use the I2C IIC Serial Digital Temperature Humidity Sensor Breakout with it?
https://abra-electronics.com/sensors/sensors-temperature-en/sens-sht30-i2c-iic-serial-digital-temperature-humidity-sensor-breakout.html
Can’t i just use the 4 wires connected to a espWroom-32 or esp8266?

Can’t seem to find much information on how to hook it up on the espwroom 32
This doesn’t work: taken str8 from esphome.io

i2c:
  sda: 21
  scl: 22
  scan: True
  id: bus_a
  • this in the sensor section:
sensor:
  - platform: sht3xd
    temperature:
      name: "zone1 soil  Temperature"
    humidity:
      name: "zone1 soil Humidity"
    address: 0x44
    update_interval: 60s

This is the sensor: https://abra-electronics.com/sensors/sensors-temperature-en/sens-sht30-p-sht30-temperature-and-humidity-sensor-probe.html
Any help would be appreciated!
thanks

Thia? SHT3X-D Temperature+Humidity Sensor — ESPHome

Maybe those are the pages you already quoted from though. What is your log showing you?

3

Yes it’s one of the two i quoted earlier. I didn’t even get to logs, it actually wont let me compile…
It’s weird because I find all these others in the same family but nothing on this one?

I think this is the actual sensor chip. I know it’s made by sensirion, but even on their site i find only it’s cousins or something. The one thing i think I’ve found for sure is that its * I2C interface. and also that I do not know for sure how to interface with i2c…

do I need an extra module to be able to use I2c or i could use it directly.

I have 4 wires which are labeled as SDA:grn/blu VCC:red, SCK:ylw/wht GRND:blk
i know what 3 of the four are… i do not know what SCK is.

maybe you can help me.

also there is this code on the tag: FS304-SHTXX
Which led me to some datasheet, but i’m still trying to decypher it plus it’s for an older model i think, help please please please :wink:

I really am trying the hardest i can to learn but learning curve is real steep and so many fields of study that i never did too… but i am learning so much because of the generous time and help of this community!

4

Attempts to compile create a log. What does it say?

5

I think I’ve found how to do this, give me a minute ill try this , then i’ll get the log if it doesn’t work.
the thing is that i compiled and uploaded using a different computer using esphomeflasher cmdline because sometimes my HA on VM is not recognizing the usb… so i did it that way…

6

i am writing the yaml now… brb

7

Esphome compiling still creates logs. But you said you couldn’t compile so now you have totally lost me.

8

what are the two !2C pins on the esp32 wroom.

I am using 21 and 22 but it tells me that ium wrong when i try compiling

9

this is the last bit from the last few hours on my mac, ill try to get to the ones that i did on my virtual machine on my nas, I am less sure how to get to that one specifically…

One thing I forgot to mention, it would compile when the sensor wasn’t plugged on the esp32 but would not when it was. would actually make it crash when i tried booting whith the code cited above flashed on it…

11

I have been trying without success all day and night to get this running

Now i’m pretty confident of my yaml… Except i cant succeed to flash the damn code the esp wroom 32 s
on home assistant OR on my mac, even while holding the flash button…

I am literally pulling hair off my scalp at the moment, i am going completely nuts.
here is my yaml:

esphome:

IT DOES FLASH WHEN nothing is plugged on it, then it goes green if there is nothing plugged on it but as soon as i plug something on it then put the power back on it doesn’t go green anymore. it stays red
This is insane.

My yaml validates, it uploads, goes green except when i plug the sensor on the appropriate pins which are these by the way:
RED: VCC, 3.3v GRND: BLack Yellow: (data/sda/12c) GPIO 21 green: clk/I2C: GPIO 22

i will actually loose some sleep on this, it’s driving me nuts.

ill try again on one of my esp8266 we’ll see…

12

I asked for the compile logs.

esphomeflasher does not compile, it uploads a .bin file that esphome has already compiled - this may be what you are missing!

13

Why are you this rude?

Is it not obvious that i dont know, i tried to give you what you were asking for, but i did make mistakes, i am not sure where to look for this specific log could you at least point me to it so that i learn something?

Its the vocabulary that i am missing, that is exactly what im doing uploading the .bin to the esp using usb because it does not work most of the time directly from esphome ( i thought we had discussed this earlier)
I can upload only if there is no sensors hooked on the esp32 if theres anything on it, the upload fails…
then after its the sa,me, if i un plug it, and plug it again without nothing hooked on it it goes green in HA if something is hooked/p[lugged on one of the gpio it does not work/go green in HA

what do you think it is, my Yaml is ok, the code works when nothing is plugged, its weird i find…

14

Tried it on one of my esp8266, same yaml , same results, when plugged in … it does not boot, as soon as i remove it, the node mcu boots and reads all attached sensors… so the problem is with that specific sensor + the config.

thoughts anyone?

15

I am not rude, you are. You tell me your code won’t compile. I ask you for the log of that. You won’t supply it. How do you expect help on that basis?

16

i do not know how to provide the log, i keep telling you. i dont have all the knowledge you have concerning HA. I corrected myself its a language thing I am french and i guess i didn’t express myself correctly, but you must have noticed i am not experienced!?!

Maybe you could have asked me: Do you know how to get the logs so that i can help you? That would have been a non-rude way of saying things.

I do not know hot to provide what you are asking for, can you help me by directing me to where this log is located like i’ve asked you twice to help me by directing me to where its located. Maybe you didn’t read all the messages I wrote… anyways. Sans rancunes! Like we say in french.

I am asking for help. could you please direct me to where I can find it so that i can get help?

Thanks

Then you that you connect them to

So have you switched the green and yellow?

Sda is green which you say that you connect to gpio 22 which is scl.

Should it not be connected to gpio21.
