Co2meter iAQ-2000 Indoor Air Quality Sensor User manual

  • Hello! I've reviewed the user manual for the CO2Meter IAQ-2000 CO2 Sensor. This document details how to interface with the sensor using I2C, PWM, RS232 TTL, and analog outputs. The manual includes information about the sensors's configuration, burn-in period, output formats and communication protocols. Feel free to ask me any questions you have about the device or its usage.
  • What is the default value during burn-in?
    How long is the run-in time after restart?
    How can I read the sensor prediction?
    How is the CO2 prediction calculated?

This document describes the readout of the IAQ-2000 sensor stamp with I2C, RS232 TTL, analog and
PWM interface.
Chapter 1: I2C
Chapter 2: PWM
Chapter 3: RS232 TTL
Chapter 4: Analog output 0...5V
During the first 6 hours of continuous operation (burn-in) the module will display 350ppm, 2.5VDC,
50%PWM. The successful burn-in is saved to the EEPROM, the run-in time after restart is 15min.
1 I2C
Pin configuration:
VCC = 5VDC. The I2C-Bus, also called TWI-Bus (Two Wire Interface), allows reading the sensor
prediction by I2C-master. The I2C functionality is optimized for a single-master system and can be
implemented with the following parameters and addresses:
The address of the slave module is set to 90 + r/w-bit:
Clock rate: 100 kHz

<DATA1> + <DATA2> = module prediction
The module must be addressed by the master with the preset slave address. By sending the read
command with acknowledge the master change to the receive state and the slave is initiated to send
the first data-byte. This needs to be acknowledged by the master, the second data byte is not
acknowledged. The CO2 prediction is calculated by adding the two data bytes.
Example:
DATA1: 0000 0101 (05hex)
DATA2: 1101 1100 (DChex)
<DATA1> + <DATA2>: 0000 0101 1101 1100 = 1500
