About the Aranet4 device

The Aranet4 sensor is a battery-powered CO ² meter with additional measurements of temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. * The device is suitable for monitoring the CO level at home, in school, office or any other indoor environment.
Measurement data is displayed on a power-efficiente-ink screen allowing for long battery life. Additionally, the device can provide visual and sound notifications in case of the CO² concentration becomes unhealthy. The high concentration level of 1400 ppm (parts per million) – level typically associated with complaints of drowsiness and poor air quality.

Data transmission interval: 1, 2, 5 or 10 minutes.
Default measurement interval is set to 5 minutes.

Aranet4 uses the nondispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor to measure the concentration of CO ² The CO ² gas in the chamber absorbs infrared light and this absorption is measured by the sensor. The less light passes through – the higher the CO ² concentration. The CO ² gas absorbs only a speci fi c wavelength of the light therefore an optical fi lter is used.

By using the Aranet4 app on your smart device it is possible to wirelessly access real-time data and up to one week of historical measurement data. The app also allows you to con fi gure the Aranet4 device. The Aranet4 app supports the connection of several Aranet4 sensors to monitor their parameters remotely from a single smart device.

Additionally up to 100 Aranet4 PRO devices can be connected to the Aranet PRO base station.
Refer to the chapter Using Aranet4 device with the Aranet PRO base station.

• Atmospheric pressure data measurements are available only on the Aranet4 app.
  More information in chapter How to pair the Aranet4 to my smart device.

The Aranet4 sensor screen explained

1. Temperature of the ain Celsius or Fahrenheit. Refer to the switch positions othe Aranet4 in chapter switch positions explained.Relative humidity of the air (RH%).

2.  Relative humidity of the air (RH%).

3. CO² concentration level in ppm (parts per million).

4.  Alarm status. The speaker symbol is visible when alarm function is activated. The alarm settings can be adjusted using the Aranet4 app.
   

5. CO² threshold level indication.
   represents normal CO ² level (below 1000 ppm)
   represents average CO ² level (1000 to 1400 ppm)
   represents high CO ² level (above 1400 ppm)

6. CO ² calibration mode indication. Symbol “A” is displayed when calibration is set to automatic. No letter is displayed when calibration is set to manual mode.

7. The PRO version of the product (can be wirelessly connected to Aranet PRO ba  se station & Aranet Cloud )

8. Battery level.

9.  Adjustable CO ² thresholds that can be set using the Aranet4 app.

CO 2 calibration

The Aranet4 device is calibrated at the factory. However, the user can perform CO ² calibration manually when needed. During the manual calibration, the Aranet4 device must e exposed to fresh air (about 420 ppm of CO ²) and the environment should be stable (not changing). Maintain a distance of at least 1 meter from the device during the calibration process.

To start the manual CO² calibration, change the position of the switch (see next chapter Switch positions explained) from MANUAL to AUTO and then back to MANUAL to maintain a maximum of 1 second between each movement). The calibration progress will be displayed on the screen of the device. In case of a calibration failure message, make sure that the environmental requirements are met and repeat the process from the beginning.

Manual calibration can be done using the Aranet4 app as well.
In the case of automatic calibration mode, the Aranet4 device needs to be exposed to fresh air at around 420 ppm (for instance, outdoors or room with good air exchange) at least 8 hours each month.

Switch positions explained

The Aranet4 device has four small con fi guration switches that allow the user to adjust the preferences of the device.

To access the con fi guration switches, open the cover of the battery compartment on the back of the device. While batteries remain inserted, adjust the switch position (up or down) using the pin tool that is supplied with the Aranet4 device (or any other suitable thin tool).

Switches can be adjusted while batteries are removed as well, but note that if you remove the batteries, the measurement history will be erased from Aranet4 memory. The hanged preference setting will be enabled once the batteries are inserted back in.

How to pair Aranet4 to my smart device using the Aranet4 app

Connect your smartphone with the Aranet4 device via Bluetooth by using iOS or Android (access to device’s location should be allowed due to general requirement for Bluetooth apps to work correctly on Android OS) app to:

Your mobile phone must have either Android 6.0 or newer (for Android) or iOS 11.00 or newer (for iPhone) in order for you to be able to download the app.

Using Aranet4 PRO device with the Aranet PRO base station

The Aranet PRO base station serves as a device for collecting, storing and maintaining data from all types of Aranet sensors, including Aranet4 PRO. Up to 100 sensors can be connected to a single Aranet PRO base station which has a capacity to store the measurement history up to 10 years.

To connect the Aranet4 PRO to the Aranet PRO base station, initiate the sensor pairing mode on the Aranet PRO base station and start the pairing on the Aranet4 device by hanging the switch position from disable (0) to enable (radio symbol). Alternatively, while switch is in the enable position (radio symbol on screen is visible), remove and reinsert the batteries. Please note, that by removing the batteries, the measurement history will be erased from the Aranet4 memory.
