-<note warning>Do not try to read temperature and humidity too frequently. Once every 5s is quite enough both for information and safe enough to not let your readings race with the communication protocol. If you read too frequent, your sensor may not be able to deliver data on time and you will obtain a 'nan' (not a number) instead of temperature and humidity.</note>

 Firmware uploading is done via a USB cable providing a COM (serial) port to the PC computer you're developing software on. You can also use the same port to trace (send communications) from your code to the console (so-called "serial monitor").
-<note important>Computers in laboratory rooms 320 and 321, and 336 use "freezing" software which means that for every startup, computers are restored to their initial state. All changes done to the local storage are then lost! Keep your work in some other place between meetings i.e. [[http://gitlab.aei.polsl.pl|AEI GIT]], [[https://drive.google.com|Google Drive]] and so on.</note>
