Two-point correction

If there is a discrepancy between the temperature (or humidity) you want to display and the 4-Sensors’ temperature (or humidity), perform a two-point correction. The following is an example of how to compensate for this, using temperature as an example.

First, measure the temperature at two points with the 4-Sensors and a reference instrument. Then, write the measured values into a sample sketch and execute them, and the temperature of the 4-Sensors will be close to the temperature you want to display. 

Execution Results

Open the serial monitor of the Arduino IDE and set the baud rate to 115200 bps and you will see the temperature and humidity.
