Home temperature monitoring - Raspberry Pi Forums


hello , sorry, if answer basic or in wrong forum.

programmer, knowledge of linux shell, virtually no experience soldering (i have access solderer).

put temperature sensor (like 1 - "ds18b20", doesn't matter much, need whole number (integer) precision) in rooms in house, near ceiling , connect them pi (raspberry pi 3 b), can read value of sensors python script. found tutorials, have questions:

a) remote room measure 30m of cable away rpi. problem, if use "tree smaller wires in one" wire, connect sensor , proceed in tutorial?
(wire =https://images.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=htt ... 05.jpg&f=1)

b) tutorials multiple sensors show, example, 3 sensors @ 1 time. like, ideally, as 10 sensors (i need 4, if it's , issue, don't need more that). this, however, possible?

moment can read sensor value shell (from filesystem) i'm okay, need part. thank reading :).

if go onewire sensors can put quite few of them on single line. here great writeup on long distance onewire networks , sensors:

if find far away, might consider emonth (https://openenergymonitor.org/emon/modules/emonth) low cost wireless transmitter can couple emoncms tracking , monitoring. can write of data mysql can query python.
