connecting sensors
#1
Good afternoon, can you tell me how to connect a temperature and humidity sensor to the A8 or A16 boards? I have several different sensors
An AM2120 temperature and humidity sensor https://ali.click/klm2yz
There is also a BME280 pressure and temperature sensor. https://ali.click/zmm2ye
And I also bought a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor. https://ali.click/mom2y9 there's a problem with everyone, with the latest DHT22, I don't understand where to get the 5v from, which vcc pin to connect to to get the 5v? I'm acting on the picture https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3194 I tried to connect the AM2120 in different ways, both to the ds18b20 and to other neighboring ports and tried the settings in the sensors tab, as well as different firmware ksc v2, I thought there might be a problem with the firmware, but I also failed.

just connect sensor's data pin to A8 or A16's 1-wire port. sensor's power and GND connect to board.

which sensors are suitable for humidity and which type should be selected in the sensors tab when setting up, please tell me. Rather, I understand that dht11 is connected according to the scheme above, but for dht22, where can I get vcc 5v if the board outputs only 3.3 on the pin in the diagram?

And do I understand correctly BME280 pressure and temperature sensor. https://ali.click/zmm2ye what needs to be connected on the board itself to the 4 interfaces in the center of the a16 board? However, there is no way to see this sensor in the settings, is there something else you need to do?

DHT11,DHT22,DS18B20 all supportted by KCS v2 firmware. you can use 3.3v for DHT11,DHT22.

BME280 is i2c sensor, it can extend by i2c bus, if you config by ESPHome, because KCS v2 firmware not support extend your own i2c device.
