+ # node-red-contrib-sht41
2
+ A Node-RED node for interfacing with the Sensirion SHT41 temperature and humidity sensor over I²C. This node reads temperature and relative humidity from an SHT41 sensor when triggered by an input message. Temperature units are user-selectable between °C and °F.
3
+
4
+ ## Features:
5
+ * I²C communication with SHT41
6
+ * Temperature output in:
7
+ * Degrees Celsius (°C)
8
+ * Degrees Fahrenheit (°F)
9
+ * Relative humidity output (%RH)
10
+ * Triggered by standard Node-RED input message
11
+ * Designed for Raspberry Pi and other Linux SBCs
12
+
13
+ ## Installation:
14
+ ## From Node-RED (Recommended):
15
+ 1. Open Node-RED
16
+ 2. Go to Menu → Manage Palette
17
+ 3. Select the Install tab
18
+ 4. Search for:
19
+
20
+ node-red-contrib-sht41
21
+ 6. Click Install
22
+
23
+ ### From Command Line:
24
+
25
+ Run the following in your Node-RED user directory (typically `~/.node-red`):
26
+
27
+ npm install node-red-contrib-sht41
28
+
29
+ Restart Node-RED.
30
+
31
+ ## Hardware Requirements
32
+ * Sensirion SHT41 Temperature & Humidity Sensor
33
+ * I²C enabled system (e.g., Raspberry Pi)
34
+
35
+ **Enable I²C (Raspberry Pi)**
36
+
37
+ sudo raspi-config
38
+
39
+ Navigate to:
40
+
41
+ Interface Options → I2C → Enable
42
+
43
+ Install I²C tools if needed:
44
+
45
+ sudo apt install -y i2c-tools
46
+
47
+ Verify the sensor is detected:
48
+
49
+ i2cdetect -y 1
50
+
51
+ The SHT41 default I²C address is:
52
+
53
+ 0x44
54
+
55
+ ## Node Configuration
56
+ ### Properties
57
+ **I²C Bus** - Typically 1 on Raspberry Pi
58
+
59
+ **I²C Address** - Default: 0x44
60
+
61
+ **Temperature Unit** - °C or °F
62
+
63
+ ## Usage
64
+
65
+ 1. Add an Inject node.
66
+ 2. Connect it to the SHT41 node.
67
+ 3. Connect a Debug node to view the output.
68
+ 4. Deploy.
69
+ 5. Click Inject.
70
+
71
+ ## Output
72
+
73
+ When triggered, the node outputs a message object:
74
+
75
+ {
76
+ "payload": {
77
+ "temperature": 23.41,
78
+ "humidity": 45.12,
79
+ "unit": "C"
80
+ }
81
+ }
82
+
83
+ If Fahrenheit is selected:
84
+
85
+ {
86
+ "payload": {
87
+ "temperature": 74.14,
88
+ "humidity": 45.12,
89
