Techno Line MA10402 – Air Quality Monitor

FEATURES:

• Quartz clock
• 12/24h time display
• Indoor and outdoor temperature display in °C/°F
• Indoor humidity display in %RH
• Air quality sensor for monitoring of indoor air quality
• Display of CO2 equivalent values and quality indicator
• Air quality alarm per LED
• Low battery indicator

SETTING UP:

• Open the battery cover at the back of the transmitter and open the battery cover at the back of the air quality monitor.
• Checking the correct polarization (+/- markings), insert 2 x AAA, LR03, 1.5V batteries into the battery compartment of the outdoor transmitter and insert 2 x C, LR14, 1.5V batteries into the battery compartment of the air quality monitor. Replace the covers.
• When the batteries are inserted, all the segments of the LCD will light up briefly. The monitor will receive data signal from the outdoor transmitter in a few seconds.
• Hold the SET button for 3 seconds to manually enter a time. (See “Manual Settings”.)

Notes:

• The equivalent CO2 in ppm will only be displayed after 30 minutes.
• The air quality sensor will take up to 5 days after inserting battery to condition itself for the room it is placed. If the unit is placed into another room, there might be a reconditioning time of several days as well.
• Insert the holder to the bottom of the outdoor transmitter for table standing or insert it to the back of the transmitter for wall mounting purpose.
• Set the air quality monitor in a dry and shaded interior and away from sources of interference, such as televisions or metal plates. The transmitter should be mounted protected from rain and direct sunlight.

REPLACING THE BATTERY IN THE AIR QUALITY MONITOR
The outdoor transmitter uses 2 x AAA, LR03, 1.5V batteries. The air quality monitor uses 2 x C, LR14, 1.5V batteries.
To replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:

• Remove the cover at the back of the air quality monitor or the outdoor transmitter. Remove the old batteries and wait 2 minutes before the next step.
• Insert batteries observing the correct polarity (see marking).
• Replace compartment cover.

BATTERY CHANGE:
It is recommended to replace the battery regularly to ensure optimum accuracy of the unit.

AIR QUALITY ALERT SETTING
Press the ALERT OFF button to activate the air quality alert. The air quality alert OFF icon indicates that the alert is set off. No air quality OFF icon indicates that the alert is activated.
Note:
The LED Alert blinks, if the air quality alert is activated and the Equivalent CO2 ppm is higher than 1500ppm:
AIR QUALITY INDICATOR
The air quality indicator is located on the bottom of the LCD. It changes from “Green” to “Gray”by according to the equivalent CO2 ppm value.* The air quality value shown, after sensor conditioning, may differ +/- 250 ppm.
Note:
A 9-level bar graph is used to indicate “Green” to “Gray” air quality level in the surrounding environment:

Troubleshooting

When no sensor readings are displayed in the app, check if the green LED on the gateway is permanently lit. If not, please check if:

• The gateway is properly connected to the power plug, the router and is turned on.
• Restart the station by removing the batteries for a minute and reinserting, to restart the device.
• Your phone is connected to the internet.
• The signal is weakened by thick walls and ceilings. Put the device in operation near the gateway and then locate a suitable location.
