DHT11 wont read below 0 degree celsius

[beicnet]

Hi there,

I'm using Arduino UNO and the new variant of the Asair DHT11 (not the Aosong) sensor over 3.3v.

Everything is working just fine until the sensor reading get to 0 degree celsius and it just wont go below.

Outside right now is -3c

btw. I'm using library version 1.3.0

Thank you for your support!

I have fixed this code in DHT.cpp.

My sensor also has the "feature" that it reports 0x0000 for 0°C as well as 0x8000 for 0°C.
Following the logic this is -327.7°C ...

 case DHT22:
    case DHT21:
      int16_t d = ((int16_t)data[2]) << 8 | data[3];
	  //	msb set == negativ
	  if (d & 0x8000) {
		  d &= 0x7fff;
		  //	0x8000 == 0x0000 == 0)
		  if ( d == 0 ) d = 0x7fff;
		  d = 0x7fff - d;
		  d *= -1;
	  }
	  f = d * 0.1f;

      if (S) {
        f = convertCtoF(f);
      }
      break;
