2.1 Humidity & Temperature Sensor

The temperature sensor measures the ambient temperature of the environment and provides real-time feedback. It is useful in environmental monitoring systems and climate control applications.

Example Applications:

• Room temperature monitoring
• Smart thermostats
• Weather stations

2.1.1 Example Code for the Temperature Sensor

• Start by plugging the temperature sensor into one of the expansion ports using the provided Type-C cable.
• Drag the ScreenDisplay block onto the workspace first.
• Then drag the read temperature block from the code block menu and insert it inside the ScreenDisplay block.
• From the dropdown menu in the read temperature block, select the correct pin where the sensor is connected (e.g., P1).
• This setup will:
  • Continuously read the ambient temperature from the sensor
  • Display the real-time temperature value on the screen module
