DHT module must be connected to controller module or with sensor module.
NB! If your DHT shield has one leg removed as in the picture below, please change the #define DHTPIN D4 to D3 in the program code.
Needed libraries:
lib_deps = ITTIoT, DHT sensor library, Adafruit Unified Sensor
The example code above will print out current Tempeture and Humidity in the room.
After programming, if NAN appears instead of readings, the USB cable should be disconnected and reconnected!
