Hi, I was using the code from https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/tree/master/Software/Python/grove_i2c_temp_hum_hdc1000. However I think there may exist some problems in the code. In the code you read the same raw data for tem and hum, which makes me believe that tem and hum are related. However, when I was looking at the code in Arduino (https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/HDC1000), I found that they use different functions to get data for tem and hum. So I suppose the raw data we read should be different. Do you have any idea?
I did have a look at the code and I think this line https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_i2c_temp_hum_hdc1000/grove_i2c_temp_hum_hdc1000.py#L109 has to be changed to read the register 0x01 instead of 0x00. Is that what you were talking about.

Hey billh,
Can you take a picture of your setup and upload it here. Can you run the troubleshooting script by following the instructions here and upload the log to the forums so that we can narrow down the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMadpIEYq5o&list=PLGXEJ4Ye1qCMWziVrynnrIPpgfOr-2aj9&index=4.

Hi Karen, I’m sorry to bother you. I was just wondering if you had a chance to review the info I sent you.
Hey billh,
Sorry for taking this long to reply back. I was having a look at the troubleshooting log and it looks like either you are using some other sensor or your sensor is broken. If you run i2cdetect -y 1 on your Pi it should have atleast 1 entry for the GrovePi and another for the HDC1000 sensor. There can be other entries if you have connected other sensors. I have attached a screenshot of what it looks like here.
Can you check if you are using this sensor: http://www.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Grove_-Temperature&Humidity_Sensor(HDC1000) and just try out this example first: https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_i2c_temp_hum_hdc1000/grove_hdc_1000_example.py.
-karan
Karen, Thank you again for your help and support. I’m in the process of trying to find out how to run i2cdetect -y 1 on my Pi checking. I believe we have the following Grove - Temperature & Humidity Sensor Pro SKU: SEN51035P installed. I’m also verifying, I noticed the sensor looks different than what you mentioned.
Thanks again, billh
Hey billh,
If you are using the DHT pro which has a big white or blue sensor on the top then you should try this example: https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_dht_pro.py. Just select the blue or white variable and try with the sensor to see if you get good readings.
-Karan
Hi Karen, Here’s the additional info and the info you requested.
Let me explain and document the issue again - (sometime the py script reporting temp = nan F humidity = nam %) .
Do you have any suggestions or comments on how we should troubleshoot to find why the py script reporting temp = nan F humidity = nam % .
Listed below the py script output report.
temp = 78.8 F humidity = 34.4 %
temp = nan F humidity = nan %
temp = nan F humidity = nan %
temp = nan F humidity = nan %
temp = nan F humidity = nan %
Listed below everything plugged in:
A2 Ultrasonic ranger
12C-1 LCD RGB backlight
A1 Button
D7 Temperature & humidity sensor
A0 Sound sensor
D4 Green LED
We have a Grove - Temperature&Humidity Sensor (its’s a white sensor) Pro SKU: 101020019 installed in port D7.
(please reference the Notepad attachment reporting the run i2cdetect -y 1 results
Listed below the py script report that’s running.
display_temp.py
This scripts access the tempeture and humidity from the sensor and displays on the screen (updated every few seconds)

dht_sensor_port = 7 # Connect the DHt sensor to port 7

while True:
try:
[ temp,hum ] = dht(dht_sensor_port,dht_sensor_type)
currTime=time.strftime(“%I:%M%p”)

Hey billh,
Can you just connect the DHT sensor to port D4, change the second parameter in line 53 here: https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_dht_pro.py to white and run that example and post the output you get when you run it.
-Karan
Hi Karen, Thanks again for all your help and support.
Ok, as requested, I connected the DHT sensor to port D4, changed python rtn (it’s now the same as you suggested) the second parameter in line 53 here:
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = 27.10 C humidity =40.20%
temp = 27.10 C humidity =40.20%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = 27.10 C humidity =40.10%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = 27.10 C humidity =40.10%
temp = 27.10 C humidity =40.10%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
The bad news, it’s still reporting the same. Do you have any other suggestions? I’m ready to try any anything. Do we have a bad white sensor? If so, can you send me a new replacement.
Listed below the additional info / log.

Hey Billh,
Can you attach a picture of your setup of the GrovePi and the sensor. Also, where did you buy the sensor and the GrovePi from.
-Karan
Hi Karen, Today, I just received my new Grove - Temperature&Humidity Sensor Pro SKU: SEN51035P from SeedStudio. I installed the new sensor and re-booted. It’s reporting the same.
Here’s my reply - Can you attach a picture of your setup of the GrovePi and the sensor. Please explain on how I should provide you the info.
Also, where did you buy the sensor and the GrovePi from. My reply - I’m sorry it took so long - my office person forgot to order the sensor.
Please let me know the next steps to help resolve the issue.
Listed below the message (note: temp = nan C humidity =nan%)
temp = 1.00 C humidity =1.00%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = 1.00 C humidity =1.00%

print (“temp = %.02f C humidity =%.02f%%”%(temp, humidity))

==============================================
Just to add to this conversation, I have a similar issue in that the temperature and humidity sensor aren’t reporting sensible values. They tend to stick quite closely to 25C and 40% humidity and drift up and down by +/- 1C and +/- 1% Humidity, when I know the temperature is 18-19C.
I don’t get any NaN though.
Thank you for the feedback. I’m trying to address why the sensors reporting the following.
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
temp = nan C humidity =nan%
Hi Karen, Do you have any updates

Hi Karen, I just realized, I sent you the old log, please ignore the info listed above. I’m now remote and I can no longer run the GrovePI troubleshooting script to provide you the setup of the GrovePi. I hope taht’s what your looking for. Please advise if that’s correct and can you advice on how I can run GrovePI troubleshooting script via remote.
Thank again for your help and support.
Hey billh,
I haven’t seen a lot of nan’s on this sensor before, but since a couple of people have reported similar problems, I’ll test this sensor along with a couple of other temp sensors in parallel to check if this does report the right values.
