:::warning
|
|
GPIO access is fundamentally dangerous because invalid options can physically damage or destroy your hardware. Ensure that you fully understand the schematic for your particular device before trying this as we do not offer a warranty. Use at your own risk.

This plugin requires attaching a peripheral accessory to your device. It will not work without one.

|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The Environment Measurement Plugin will allow nodes to send a specific message with information from connected environmental sensors. Currently supported sensors are BME280, BME680, DHT11, DHT12, DHT21, DHT22 and Dallas 1-wire DS18B20.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
Once plugin settings are changed, a **reset** is required for them to take effect.

### environmental_measurement_plugin_read_error_count_threshold

|
|
|
Sometimes sensor reads can fail. If this happens, we will retry a configurable number of attempts. Each attempt will be delayed by the minimum required refresh rate for that sensor

### environmental_measurement_plugin_recovery_interval
|
|
|

Sometimes we can end up with more than read_error_count_threshold failures. In this case, we will stop trying to read from the sensor for a while. Wait this long until trying to read from the sensor again.

## Details
|
|
|
|
### Hardware
|
|
|
|
The sensors can be wired differently, here's [one example](https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-ds18b20-temperature-arduino-ide) for sensor DS18B20.
|
|
|
|
### Known Problems
|
|
|
|
* No default configuration values are currently set, so this must be done when enabling the plugin.
