DHT11 needs a simple circuit. Refer the above diagram. The code is below
#define DHT11PIN 7 dht11 DHT11; void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); } void loop() { Serial.println(); int chk = DHT11.read(DHT11PIN); Serial.print("Humidity (%): "); Serial.println((float)DHT11.humidity, 2); Serial.print("Temperature (C): "); Serial.println((float)DHT11.temperature, 2); delay(2000); } To change DHT11 temperature to Fahrenheit use the formula double far = (DHT11.temperature * (9 /5)) + 32 To see the temp and humidity on the serial monitor , on the Arduino IDE goto tools > Serial Monitor You should see the current temp and humidity on the serial monitor.
