Hello,
I have twoquestions concerning the dust sensor:

1. What are the units of the data returned by the API ? Is it already converted to mg/m3 or not ?

2. What is the smallest possible interval etween turing the sensor on and reading values from it ?
I get completely different values depending on how long I wait.

Thanks in advance.

Hi tom,

1. It is already converted int mg/m3.

2. The smallest time you have to wait is about two seconds, but I'd advice you to wait for about five seconds between turning on the sensor and reading it for a better repeatability.

Regards.
