#76350 I'm trying to add a RTC to this module:
https://www.banggood.com/Wemos-ESP32-OL ... rehouse=CN
My hardware also includes a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor.

First, I tried using the same pins for SDA and SDC as used by the SH1106 model (pins 5 & 4). That did not work. The RTC fails as soon as the display is initialized.There appears to be some sort of conflict between the OLED and the DS3231 RTC. So I installed the RTC on different SDA and SDC pins. The RTC code works as expected until the display is initialized just as before.

RTC is newer than compile time. (this is expected)

I would like to be able to plot temperature and humidity vs time.

Does anybody have any idea why the RTC is failing after the SH1106 is initialized??

#76352 I took out the DHT stuff and hard coded values. I removed what I didn't have and was not necessary for the RTC and the OLED. And in the end they both didn't work together.

I tried a different route. I decided to take a minimal RTC example and add in the minimum OLED code. And I have them both working together.

The OLED I have is the SSD1306 so the included file is different. I also used GPIO0 and GPIO2 for the I2C lines.

I don't know what is wrong with your code. I don't have anymore time to look at it again. But maybe you can use what I have here to get your hardware working together and then figure out why your program doesn't work.

Code: Select all//  Get date and time from DS3231 and display it on OLED
// Rtc_by_Makuna library  https://github.com/Makuna/Rtc

#include <Wire.h> // must be included here so that Arduino library object file references work

RtcDS3231<TwoWire> Rtc(Wire);
