Good evening, I have a question) so i have my microcontroller ESP8266 and i connected my DHT22. I need to connect my microcontroller with DHT to my account in Losant but i have this issue, i do not know what happen. Do y
Hello @Oleksandr_Zhyzhko,
Welcome to the Losant forums!
It looks like your device is either continuously trying to connect to the platform (as in your connect() function in your code is in you loop()) or you have two devices connecting to Losant with the same Device ID.
Also, just a quick note, when your device is connected to Losant, you will be unable to use the Device Simulator (as the warning states).
Would you be able to share the code you are using on your ESP8266 device? Can you confirm that you are using a unique Device ID for this device?
Thank you,
Heath
Here is mu code, i delete my previous ESP8266 device with button function, then i create a new application with DHT22 and i described what happened.
I need that in device log display humidity, tempC, tempF, heatindexC and heatindexF
Here is my code.
Thank you so much for your help!

Hey @Oleksandr_Zhyzhko,
I’m taking a close look now. While I do that, can you confirm that you are using a unique Device ID for this device? As I mentioned, this type of issue is sometimes indicative of 2 devices connecting to Losant with the same Device ID.
Thank you,
Heath
