Hi,
I'm having some trouble getting my XBee to work with the SHT15 temperature/humidity sensor.
The SHT15 has a DATA line and SCK (serial clock) line - in order for the digital reading to be sent to the XBee there needs to be some sort of synchronization step.
Will the XBee do this synchronization automatically? or are there some settings I need to change?
Besides that - I imagine its more straightforward to just have an analog temp and humidity sensor hooked up?? Are there any suggestions?
If you have the Xbee shield and Xbee Explorer USB, I have a very simple solution.
But if you have to connect the SHT-75 and the XBee module directly, I have no suggestion unfortunately.
How do you plan to configure your system?
Hi tasasaki,
I plan on connecting the sensor directly to the XBee. It looks like analog sensors will be cheaper anyways. However, I do have XBee shields as well as the XBee explorer.
I suppose your suggestion is to send the serial data from arduino to the Xbee on the shield - and then send that data to the computer? Let me know if you've got any other tips. Thanks!

Yes, that is exactly what I've wanted to say. It's very easy to substitute the Xbee wireless communication for the real serial line.
I confirmed that this sketch works fine with the Xbee devices on transparent operation.

I feel it's a difficult task. I'm sorry I can't be of any help.
