# Calibration

CO2 sensors need to be regularly calibrated to provide reliable measurements. The used sensors support auto-calibration and that is enabled in the firmware. It works by looking over measurements over a period and calibrating the lowest value against 420ppm (configurable in the firmware). This is based on the assumption that the monitor 'sees' clean outside air about once a week. If that cannot be achieved the firmware also allows for a forced calibration against a given value. Please also make sure to set the altitude setting according to the monitor location. For details please check the sensor's datasheets.

## From v1.2.4

Manual calibration can be triggered by pressing the `Boot` button for more than 5 seconds. Make sure the monitor has been exposed to fresh outside air for a while and be careful not to breathe towards the monitor when doing this.

# Hardware

The board was designed to use an ESP32 or another Feather-based controller

## ESP32

When an ESP32 is used the feather footprint can be used to drive feather wings. Since some pins are shared with other components please check carefully before connecting a feather.

## Feather

A feather controller can be used to drive the sensors and LEDs, but unfortunately not the RFM96.

## LEDs

The board has room for 3 x 5mm LEDs for traffic light style indication. Each is driven by a transistor to relieve the ESP32/Feather GPIO pins. High intensity LEDs allow for good visibility, but can also be dimmed using the ESP32 internal PWM channels if needed.
