Numerical representation of the measured values
- This is already included in the source code.
Humidity
The first 16 bits coming from the DHT22 are the relative humidity in tenths of a percent. They can be processed directly with the 16-bit noForth and correspond to a positive integer. Rounded to whole digits for display purposes. Here is an excerpt from the noforth source code:
: .hum ( hum -- ) 10 / . ." %rel" space ;
Temperature
The next 16 bits are the temperature in tenths of a degree Celsius. Temperatures from zero degrees and higher can be processed directly using the 16-bit noForth; they correspond to a positive integer.
Temperatures below zero degrees are represented by the DHT22 as follows: The MSB of the 16-bits is set, but otherwise the temperature is specified as a positive integer. This number format does not correspond to the two's complement of noForth. Here, the MSB must first be evaluated to determine the sign. The sign is prepended for output. The measured value can then be further processed as a positive integer. Whole degrees are displayed to the left of the decimal point, tenths to the right. The unit °C is specified.
