DHT11 - temp ok, but RH values wildly off

This is a very useful document for calibration. it includes the hole range of humidity at a specefic temperature values with different salts.

Hope it's gonna help some people :slight_smile:

search for these links on google:

how to calibrate:

To calibrate your sensors you should put them enclosed with salt at least 1 hours (until no change in reading values), then deduct many functions for each interval of humidity:

Yi = f(x) , i=1,....n

wich x is the wrong value given by the sensor, and Y is the supposedly correct humidity value to display.
then you add some conditional if statements in each interval to correct the humidity value.

I hope it was clear!!
