Air Monitoring HAT (Incomplete Wiki)

Air Monitoring HAT is a powerful and hi-tech PMSA003 sensor that provides the information of suspended particulate matter (PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10) in the air per unit volume via digital output with an operating voltage of 3.3 V. It communicates via UART (serial) with the standby current ≤200 Microampere (μA) of the sensor.

Installation

Python

Required Hardware
  • Raspberry Pi x 1
  • Air Monitoring HAT x 1
Enable I2C and Serial Interface
  • Open a terminal and run the following commands to enable I2C:
sudo raspi-config

Choose Interfacing Options -> I2C ->yes

  • Again run below command to enable Serial
sudo raspi-config

Choose Interfacing Options -> Serial -> No -> Yes

  • You can also enable Serial and I2C using Graphical method, Open Menu by clicking on Raspberry Pi icon >> Preferences >> Raspberry Pi Configurations >> Interfaces , and select below option.

  • Now reboot your pi by running the below command :
sudo reboot
Board Test
  • Clone Github repository of Air monitoring HAT by running below command and enter its directory.
git clone https://github.com/sbcshop/Air-Monitoring-HAT.git
cd Air-Monitoring-HAT
  • Now run GUI of Air monitoring HAT by running the below command on terminal.
python3 Air_Monitoring_GUI.py
  • Select COM port from above GUI ("/dev/ttyS0" in case of default connection), and click on the start button to start Real-Time data from the sensor.
  • You can also use these two examples and modify them easily :
    • display_on_oled_example.py :- To print the sensor data on Oled Display.
    • read_example.py : To print the sensor data on Python shell or Terminal.
