Satisfied

Works very well. Seems to agree fairly closely with another standalone sensor. I am looking forward to playing with it more.

A couple of quibbles:
1. I wanted to use it on a Mac; however, the GasLab software apparently does not run native on MacOS, requiring the hassle of setting up a virtual machine. Not a big problem for me, I copied and ran the Python program found in the app note AN127.
2. in order to determine the serial device used, there is a simple old trick: list the /dev directory before and after plugging the sensor in, save the listing to files, and diff the files. On Mac you will then find 2 serial devices, /dev/tty.usbserial-XXXXXX and /dev/cu.usbserial-XXXXXX. I am using the "cu" device but I understand either will work.
2. this Python program is a good start but my sensor always responds to the 3rd poll request with " M ?\r\n". This crashes the program because it can't convert that to a float. I revised the program to use readline() and throw the returned data away unless it starts with " Z ".

Works well. Simple to get data

I got the CozIR with the USB dongle. It works well - I used it on Ubuntu and a Raspberry Pi for IAQ measurement. As a NOT CO2 measurement professional, I found it really amazing how sensitive it is to having a person near it (shouldn't be a surprise, I suppose). Also, I struggle a bit with calibration. Kudos to Co2meter.com for actually covering calibration in the manual, but I still struggle with outdoor calibration. Is my local area really 410 PPM? It reads more towards 500 with no cal. But I digress, because the sensor is very sensitive, pretty low noise, and the manual does discuss different cases of calibration, which to be honest, is more than I expected.

I took the Python sample code in AN127 and tweaked it a bit to make it easier to use as a library, including a bit of port discovery. https://gist.github.com/ErikBrewster/01b1e4669b7c9d2989f84f5a8419d904

Great for Calibration

Used it to calibrate cheaper sensors for a home air quality hobby project. Very useful.

Good Product - Quick to arrive and quick to set up

Very satisfied with the purchase. The sensor came in a couple of days, and it was easy to write a little code on a raspberry pi to read and save the data. The device seems to be very accurate and responsive. I also really appreciate the extensive hardware documentation. It also feels good to support an American hardware company, since the market seems to be dominated by Chinese or Indian sellers.

👍

Great but thought it read temp/rh as well, could make that a little more clear by offering the version that does as well

"Easy to install, easy to set up, and easy calibration - just what I was looking for."
