I've got my AQE up and running today, it paired and I registered it at airqualityegg.com (serial number in lower case - thanks for that tip Alan)

No readings visible at airqualityegg.com but I can see it on COSM https://cosm.com/feeds/87678 (thanks Mark for the URL tip).

I received my programmer from Open Energy Monitor (http://shop.openenergymonitor.com/programmer-usb-to-uart/) and I've been monitoring the serial output using the Arduino software (115200 baud).

The base station serial output shows temperature values (14 degrees C, but COSM shows it 2 degrees higher at 16 degrees!! Why?) but no humidity, CO, NO2. COSM also only shows temperature values. Any ideas why?

I haven't figured out how to use the Arduino environment yet...
  • I downloaded but zip file https://github.com/jmsaavedra/Air-Quality-Egg/archive/master.zip and extracted into a temp folder
  • Copied the libraries into Documents\arduino\libraries
  • Opened tempfolder\Air-Quality-Egg-master\AirQualityEggNanode\AirQualityEggNanode.ino in the Arduino IDE
  • It doesn't compile - line 53 setupNanode() undefined
  • setupNanode is defined elsewhere but it's not found, have I opened the wrong file or set up the IDE wrongly

What am I doing wrong?
Also, what board am I compiling for? I'm just set to the default Arduino Uno at the moment.

Hi Gavin,  I think you have opened the wrong file.  Have a look at Damon's post where he listed the latest software versions.
Compiling for the Uno is correct as the Nanode is a derivative of the Arduino Uno.

At least your house isn't hotter than the sun!
