Connecting Aeros to the WIFI network
-
Connect the Aeros with the supplied cable and adapter
The cable contains a USB-A and mini USB output. Connect the USB-A output with the adapter and the mini-USB output with the Aeros. The set-up is now complete and activation can begin.
-
Activation of the Aeros
Now the Aeros can be activated. Plug into the wall socket and repeat until the Aeros emits white light. The device can also be manually activated by pressing the switch next to the mini-USB output. -
Log into the WIFI network
In order to be able to view the values measured by the Aeros on a smartphone or tablet. the Aeros must be logged on to the Wi-Fi network of the room whose indoor climate is to be measured.
Go to wifi settings on your mobile phone or tablet. select the the wifi option. You will now see the available networks. Select the “CG-sensor” option.
-
Select the WIFI network
Now select the Wi-Fi network where you place the Aeros. Now enter the password of this WiFi network.
The Aeros will now automatically log in to the selected network. This can take up to one minute.
-
Successful connection with WIFI network
The Aeros is ready when the light flashes once and blinks green.
The Aeros is now successfully connected to the WiFi network. which enables the connection with your mobile device via the Aeros app. -
Support
In exceptional cases. the Aeros may not log in on the first attempt. If that happens. you will need to repeat this step.
If login is unsuccessful after several attempts. check if a firewall is installed on the computer. It is possible that access to the Aeros is being blocked by setting the firewall. If so, you will need to change the firewall settings for accessing the Aeros. Ask your system administrator for help. If you get red blinking Lights, the password is probably incorrect.

Placement of the Aeros Sensor
Complete Aeros installation
Now we are going to place the Aeros. Preferably in the center of a room Use the 2 adhesive slrips lo allact1 tt1e Aeros. Below advice for an optimal result.
- Power outlet with permanent power supply (eg. Not behind a light switch)
- The climate sensor must be installed at a height of 1.50 – 1.80m (60 – 72 inches.)
- The climate sensor must be mounted on a fiat surface
- The climate sensor must not be mounted on metal surfaces
- Not too close to a window, door or in a draft
- Do not install in a place where direct sunlight can hit the climate sensor
Menu explanation
Support Aeros use
Depending on which version of the sensor. the Aeros measures multiple parameters of the indoor climate.
Press for more information about the parameters.
The Aeros gives a score for comfort (Temperature and Relative Humidity) and health (TVOC. CO2 and Particulate matter). Press the text eg CO2 to enter values for a specific channel. The red dotted line indicates a limit value and the orange is a warning line.
With notifications you can see the messages regarding the indoor climate. This helps you to keep the indoor climate clean and safe. You also have the choice to receive push notifications. turn them on or off via the green pencil in the settings.
These are the most urgent and important notifications. Aeros refreshes the data automatically every 30 seconds. ensuring real-time information.
The wheel gives you access to a menu where you:
-
Can change the name of the sensor to your choice
-
Can switch the Aeros traffic light function on and off
After this the Aeros gives of a green/orange/red light related to the CO2 level. -
MUST select the country the Aeros is located

Type | Description |

Particulate matter / PM | Collective name for the small particles in the air. |
It is invisible to the naked eye. Almost all human activities produce
particulate matter. such as cooking and driving a car. The smaller the
particle. the more harmful to health. PM 1 (Parts per million) is referred to
as ultra-fine particles. Ultra-fine dust enters the lungs and is extra harmful
for children and adults with lung diseases. The Aeros also measures PM 0.3. on
this channel. aerosols are measured. Aerosols are possible virus transmitters.
The WHO standards for particulate matter are PM 10 and PM 2-5 and have a limit
value of 50 uq (micrometres) m3 and 25 ug m3 respectively.
Relative humidity| The ratio between the amount of water vapor present in the
air and the maximum amount that could enter it. A percentage between 40% – 60%
is ideal. Too high a humidity can cause mold to form. Too low a humidity is
unfavorable for the condition of mucous membranes. eyes. nose and throat. It
can also lead to reduced resistance to infections.
TVOC| Collective term for a group of hydrocarbons that evaporate easily. These
chemicals are found in other build ing materials. cleaning products and paint.
Short-term exposure causes irritation to eyes and mucous membranes. At high
concentrations cannot be ruled out for health effects on organs. A value below
500 PPB (parts per billion) is ideal. Values above
1000 PPB should be avoided.
CO2| Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a gas naturally present in the atmosphere. The
CO2 content is expressed in PPM (parts per million). Too much CO2 displaces
the oxygen intake in our body. As a result. the body switches to a bearing
energy expenditure. leading to fatigue. headaches and loss of concentration.
Limit values differ by country.
- NL -800 (green). 1000 – 1200 (orange). 1200+ (red).
- BE -goo (green}. 1000 – 1200 (orange) – 1200+ (red).
- DE -1000 (green). 1000 – 1400 (orange) – 1400+ (red).
Temperature| A measure of how hot or cold the air is. The ideal temperature is between 19 and 24 degrees Celcius (64 – 75 degrees Fahrenheit)
