===Overview===

The Honeywell HIH-4030 is a simple relative humidity sensor. It outputs an analog voltage and needs an additional temperature sensor for compensation. The sensor was flown only once for testing...

===Hardware===
Supply the sensor with 5V and connect the output with an ADC input through a 68kOhm/36kOhm resistor bridge. Standard pin is ADC_3 (AD0.6) on ADC1/J10 for the Tiny/TWOG. We used the temperature sensor part of the SHT75 for compensation.

===Usage===

To use the humidity sensor add:
{{Box Code|conf/airframes/myplane.xml|
<source lang="xml">
<modules>
<load name="humid_hih.xml"/>
</modules>
</source>
}}

The ADC pins can be configured through defines, e.g.:
{{Box Code|conf/airframes/myplane.xml|
<source lang="xml">
<modules>
<load name="humid_hih.xml">
<define name="ADC_CHANNEL_HUMID_HIH" value="ADC_4"/>
</load>
</modules>
</source>
}}

===Result message===

The raw data (humid) and the converted result (fhumid/ftemp) is written to the log file. The message is automatically sent when new data is received, it does not have to be added to the telemetry file.
{{Box Code|conf/messages.xml|
<source lang="xml">
<message name="HIH_STATUS" id="96">
<field name="humid" type="uint16"/>
<field name="fhumid" type="float" unit="rel_hum" format="%.2f"/>
<field name="ftemp" type="float" unit="deg_celsius" format="%.2f"/>
</message>
</source>
}}
