Comprehensive weather monitoring station

The EzloPi smart devices provide automation through simple, customizable use with our open-source EzloPi platform, making daily life easier and improving human-machine interactions.

Before moving into this example, it is very important to know about the device registration, provisioning and converting the ESP32 device into an EzloPi device along with knowledge of Web Flasher, MiOS Mobile Application for Android/iOS and the MiOS Web Application.

The following project integrates the BMP280 and DHT22 sensors with the EzloPi device for accurate environmental monitoring. The BMP280 sensor provides temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure data, while the DHT22 enhances the setup with additional temperature and humidity readings, offering redundancy. Together, these sensors enable detailed weather analysis and support precise monitoring of local climate conditions. This system is ideal for applications that require real-time, accurate weather data and can serve as a foundation for advanced projects like climate control, smart agriculture and environmental studies.

Welcome to the project demonstration video section. The following video showcases the key aspects of Comprehensive weather monitoring station, providing a visual walkthrough of its implementation.

The following components are required for interfacing with the EzloPi device:

• ESP32 as an EzloPi smart device.
• BMP280 temperature, humidity and pressure sensor.
• DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor

The wiring diagram for the ESP32 30 pin is represented as below:

The following connections are made in order to complete the circuit setup:

From ESP32 to the BMP280:

From ESP32 to the DHT22:

1. Set up your device/hardware by visiting config.ezlopi.com

2. Log in using the credentials which you just set earlier while signing up.

3. Now, click on the Connect Device button and a pop-up window will appear.

4. Now, select COM Port to which your ESP32 device is connected. In our case, the COM3 port is used.

Click Connect

5. If you are new to this and it's your first time configuring, select Create new Device ID. Click on the Configure Wifi button. Enter Wifi SSID and Wifi Password.
6. In the Device Configuration, tab click on I2C.

7. An I2C window will open for inputting the following parameters:

• Set a Device name of your choosing. In our case, we set it to BMP280.
• Set Device Subtype to BMP280 I2C Sensor.
• Set the Slave address to 118.
• Set the SDA pin to 21.
• Set the SCL pin to 22.
• Tick mark both boxes of Enable pullup.
• Then Click Apply Button.

8. Again, In the Device Configuration, tab click on One Wire.

9. A One Wire window will open for inputting the following parameters:

• Set a Device name of your choosing. In our case, we set it to DHT22.
• Set the GPIO pin to 15.
• Then Click Apply Button
• After clicking the apply button you can see a table of your setting in the device configuration tab.
• Press the Flash Device button.

10. A window will appear on the bottom right side of the screen displaying “Please press BOOT button while flashing begins.”

11. Hold the BOOT button down until the next window appears on the bottom right side of the screen which says “Installation prepared. Please release the boot button now.”

12. Release the BOOT button from your ESP32 when this pop-up on the bottom right window appears.

13. After some time, a popup will appear saying Device Flashed Successfully! This means that your device has been set up successfully.

You can download the MIOS Android app from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

1. After downloading the app, proceed to install the application and open it.

2. Using the MIOS mobile application, create a new Ezlo Cloud account using the sign-up option. If you already have an account, you may proceed to log in.

3. After successfully logging in, you will be able to see the number of controllers connected such as a lamp, fan, or any other device in the MiOS app. Tap on any controller of your desired ID:

4. You will be able to see the status of your controller whether it is online or offline. Access the device dashboard, and tap the device. The following view of the dashboard will appear:

5. After opening the MIOS mobile app, you will be able to see the tiles of your connected devices. We have BMP280 and DHT22 sensors, the BMP280 and DHT22 both show the temperature and humidity values so that we can use them both to analyze the weather data.

1. After configuring the controller with the EzloPi web flasher, head to ezlogic.mios.com

2. Use the same credentials to log in that you used for configuring the controller with the web flasher.

3. After opening the MIOS web dashboard, you will be able to see the tiles of your connected devices. We have BMP280 and DHT22 sensors, the BMP280 and DHT22 both show the temperature and humidity values so that we can use them both to analyze the weather data.
