Sensor Overview
▶ Sensors versus actuators:
A sensor can detect the environmental condion, such as temperature, humidity, and water presence.
An actuator can control a system or mechanism, such as opening and closing a door handle.
▶ Suggested interval between connecons (or disconnecons) of diverse sensor package
connecons:
For proper operaon, wait for 15~30 seconds between each connecon operaon or each
disconnecon operaon of environmental sensor packages.
