Sensor Definitions

Once added to Home Assistant you can configure different settings for your sensor. Below is what each setting does.

Controls

  • RGB Light
    • 3 RGB Neopixels. Click on the light bulb to change the color. Click on the toggle to turn on or off
  • Calibrate SCD40
    • Refer to the CO2 calibration guide. Place your sensor outside and click this button to calibrate the CO2 levels

Sensors

  • Ammonia
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • Carbon Monoxide
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • CO2
    • True CO2 reading from the SCD40. This will be Unknown if you do not have the CO2 module. This can be calibrated following this guide but does come precalibrated: Here
  • DPS310 Pressure
    • Atmospheric pressure, used to better calibrate the SCD40 CO2 module
  • DPS310 Temperature
    • A worse measurement of temperature. This is more susceptible to internal heat buildup. Please use the SEN55 temperature
  • ESP Temperature
    • This is the temperature of the internal ESP chip. Think of it like your measured CPU temp on your PC
  • Ethanol
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • Hydrogen
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • Methane
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • Nitrogen Dioxide
    • Measurement from MiCS-4514 gas sensor
  • PM < 10 uM
    • Measurement of particulates smaller than 10 uM
  • PM < 1 uM
    • Measurement of particulates smaller than 1 uM
  • PM < 2.5 uM
    • Measurement of particulates smaller than 2.5 uM
  • PM < 4 uM
    • Measurement of particulates smaller than 4 uM
  • SEN55 Humidity
    • Humidity measurement from SEN55, will be most accurate
  • SEN55 NOX
    • Measurement of nitrogen oxides from the SEN55
  • SEN55 Temperature
    • Measurement of temperature from the SEN55, will be most accurate
  • SEN55 VOC
    • VOC index from the SEN55

Configuration

  • ESP Reboot
    • Performs a restart of the sensor
  • SEN55 Temperature Offset
    • Allows you to calibrate the SEN55 temperature. Please refer to our calibration guide
