Configuració

Initial Use and Calibration:

For the most accurate readings, it is recommended to perform an initial calibration upon first use. Place the device in an open and uninhabited environment. After the device is turned off, press and hold all three buttons simultaneously. The product will enter an automatic calibration state for 200 seconds. Allow the process to complete without interruption.

Càrrega del dispositiu:

The monitor is equipped with a 2400 mAh lithium-ion battery. It is recommended to use the device while it is connected to a power source via the provided USB charging cable for continuous operation. The battery level indicator on the display will show the current charge status.

Instruccions de funcionament

Encès/apagat:

  • To power on the device, press and hold the Power button until the display illuminates.
  • To power off the device, press and hold the Power button until the display turns off.

Understanding AQI Stages:

The monitor displays AQI in three distinct stages, indicated by color changes on the screen and an audible alarm for the 'Danger' stage:

  • Normal Mode (0-50): Indicated by a green display, signifying good air quality.
  • Warning Mode (51-100): Indicated by a yellow display, suggesting moderate air quality.
  • Danger Mode (101-500): Indicated by a red display. When the AQI exceeds 100, the device will sound an alarm to alert you to potentially unhealthy air conditions.
Tres stages of AQI concentration: Normal, Warning, Dangerous

Configuració de l'hora, la data i l'any:

To set the current time, date, and year on your monitor:

  1. Double-click the central button (Power button) to enter the setting mode.
  2. The setting sequence is year, date, then time. After setting each item, press the central button again to confirm and move to the next setting item.
  3. Use the '–' button to decrease the parameter value and the '+' button to increase the parameter value.
  4. Once all settings are adjusted, press the central button to save and exit the setting mode.

Temperature Unit Switching (C°/F°):

The monitor supports switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature units. Refer to the user manual for specific button combinations to toggle this setting.

Il·luminació de fons activada/desactivada:

The color display features a backlight for improved visibility. Use the '–' button to toggle the backlight on or off as needed.

Funció de calibratge

The INKBIRDPLUS monitor includes a calibration function to maintain the accuracy of its CO2 readings. This process should be performed in a well-ventilated area, ideally outdoors, to ensure the device calibrates to ambient CO2 levels (approximately 400 ppm).

Steps for CO2 Calibration:

  1. Assegureu-vos que el dispositiu estigui apagat.
  2. Take the monitor to a well-ventilated outdoor area, away from direct sources of CO2 (e.g., exhaled breath, combustion).
  3. Press and hold all three buttons (Power, '–', and '+') simultaneously.
  4. The monitor will enter the automatic calibration state for 200 seconds. A countdown timer will be displayed.
  5. Keep the device stationary and undisturbed during the entire 200-second calibration period.
  6. Once the countdown finishes, the calibration is complete, and the CO2 reading will reset to the ambient level.
