# AM2320 Module | Since | Origin / Contributor | Maintainer | Source | | :----- | :-------------------- | :---------- | :------ | | 2016-02-14 | [Henk Vergonet](https://github.com/hvegh) | [Henk Vergonet](https://github.com/hvegh) | [am2320.c](../../app/modules/am2320.c)| This module provides access to the [AM2320](https://akizukidenshi.com/download/ds/aosong/AM2320.pdf) humidity and temperature sensor, using the i2c interface. ## am2320.init() Initializes the module and sets the pin configuration. Returns model, version, serial but is seams these where all zero on my model. #### Syntax `model, version, serial = am2320.init(sda, scl)` #### Parameters - `sda` data pin - `scl` clock pin #### Returns - `model` 16 bits number of model - `version` 8 bits version number - `serial` 32 bits serial number Note: I have only observed values of 0 for all of these, maybe other sensors return more sensible readings. ## am2320.read() Samples the sensor and returns the relative humidity in % and temperature in celsius, as an integer multiplied with 10. #### Syntax `am2320.read()` #### Returns - `relative humidity` percentage multiplied with 10 (integer) - `temperature` in celcius multiplied with 10 (integer) #### Example ```lua am2320.init(1, 2) rh, t = am2320.read() print(string.format("RH: %s%%", rh / 10)) print(string.format("Temperature: %s degrees C", t / 10)) ```
