AGSM user manual

The Allsensing Gas Sensor Module provides an easy way to add gas detectors to the Internet of Things.

Description

The Allsensing Gas Sensor Module (AGSM) provides an easy way to add gas detectors to the Internet of Things. Here are some key features and specifications:

  • Gas Calibration: Once the gas calibration is complete, the AGSM sends sensor concentration values (in ppb) using UART communication.

  • Response Time: It is not suitable for environments that require a fast response time (T90<30Sec). It is designed for long-term environmental change monitoring.

  • Sensor Stabilization Time: A minimum of 30 minutes to 1 hour of sensor stabilization time is required. Temperature Compensation & Gas Sensor Calibration Algorithm: The module applies a temperature compensation and gas sensor calibration algorithm.

  • Sensor Signal Value: The sensor signal value (raw data) output from the sensor driving circuit can be checked (23bit adc). Compatibility: The AGSM product can be applied in conjunction with Arduino and compatible products.

  • Integration: It can be easily integrated and applied to small, lightweight, high-performance, low-power wireless gas detectors, portable and network solutions.

  • Gas Sensors: The AGSM is supplied in a form applied with individual gas sensors for CO, H2S, SO2, NO2, O3.

  • Sensor Calibration:

    • If the user has calibration gas and a test environment, Zero calibration and Span Calibration can be performed using communication commands.

    • It is recommended to calibrate the gas sensor (Span Calibration) every six months.

    • The AGSM product was calibrated using a small chamber of 400mL.

C<cr>, c<cr>

Continuous data output. Resets upon reboot and does not store status level in internal memory.

Z

Zero user calibration. Recalculates and calibrates the sensor value to output 0ppm.

B

Barcode entry. Inputs the barcode information recorded on the sensor.

S

Span user calibration. Recalculates and calibrates the sensor's measurement sensitivity by injecting calibration gas (based on PPM).

e

Internal memory readout. Checks the configuration information values stored inside the module.

D<cr>

LED ON/OFF. Status information is not stored in internal memory.

r<cr>
