KeymasterChuck probably wouldn’t have posted this, he sent me a nice email instead checking what to do.
After the long wait with the model D production, I was happy to ship the first units, including his the 64000003, but the outcome is terrible, see the picture attached below.The unit was fine prior to shipping: https://www.uradmonitor.com/?open=64000003&sensor=cpm . I’m posting this to show how things don’t always go as planned. Of course, 64000003 will be repaired asap.

KeymasterHello Luc,
Please use the values on the website, there’s a post processing on the server side, compensating for some temperature and humidity aberrations caused by the metal enclosure. Also, as you know, the sensor for these is the Bosch BME680. Bosch has an Air-Quality library that we just received, and we are in the process of integrating it on the server side. Its purpose is similar to what we have already, but designed specifically for their hardware. This will impact VOC readings too, returning Air Quality scores instead of sensor resistance.
For the Noise sensor, I will get back to you later. Please keep the feedback coming! This only helps improve things. Thanks! Radu

KeymasterWelcome, Koh, and congrats on the beautiful installation. One observation though, the enclosure seems too tight, apparently sealing the unit from the outside air. A Stevenson shield is the perfect solution here.
You might want to add a few (big) holes at the bottom and on the sides of the plastic enclosure.uRADMonitor

KeymasterI am discussing this with the manufacturer, will get back with a reply.

KeymasterIt is possible this was the auto-calibration, which is enabled on these sensors by default. The power cycle, although possible as well is discarded because of the continuous data stream. After a power cycle, there should be no data for at least 3 minutes, which is the sensors warmup time on the A3.

KeymasterHi Terje,
Please see the diagram attached for the A3 enclosure sizes.
The unit comes with a 9V 1A adapter. The device, depending on connectivity model, uses about 1W, so at 9V the current is +/- 110mA.
A3 can be powered with any voltage between 6V and 28V thanks to its internal high efficiency converter.Attachments:

KeymasterIt looks like the Bosch BME680 failed. I will need to replace the sensor in your unit.

KeymasterI’m not sure, please see the picture attached:

KeymasterI see the VOC value is 12799999, that is an invalid value.
But this is strange. The VOC is returned by the Bosch BME680, together with temperature, pressure and humidity, and these 3 are ok. Even more, the sensor communication is digital, over I2C, leaving no space for error.
I issued a remote reset request for 8200004F, to reinitialise the sensor. If the problem persists, I will need to have your BME680 replaced.

KeymasterWelcome to the forum, Bjorn! Those are excellent photos, shared them on the FB page.

KeymasterThis will be fixed soon. HTTPS is back.
