Pull battery tab to power on sensor.
Sensors ship with single use Energizer&#xAE; Ultimate Lithium &#x2122; L91 batteries for 1+ year battery life (depending on sensor settings). Sensor will also function with alkaline batteries with reduced battery life.
Step 3
Access the GrowFlux Control Panel at <a href="https://panel.growflux.com%20" target="_self">https://panel.growflux.com</a> or download the GrowFlux app for iOS or Android.
Tap the <img src="https://growflux.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360044451652/GFX_App_Invite_New_Device.jpg" alt="GFX_App_Invite_New_Device.jpg" width="154" height="23"> in the menu bar to send an invitation to the sensor. Select the sensor you would like to add to your account. It may take up to 30 seconds for each sensor to respond to the invitation and appear in the invite list.
Step 4
Place sensor within cultivation area among the plant canopy. Be aware that CO2 rich air sinks, so multiple sensors may be required for vertical cultivation, multi tier cultivation, and low airflow situations.
Sensors ship with a 1&#x201D; x 2&#x201D; Dual Lock&#x2122; adhesive fastener by 3M&#x2122; to facilitate mounting on most surfaces. Ensure mounting surfaces are free of dirt and oil before installing adhesive fastener.

Data Flag

Press the data flag button to manually send a datapoint and insert a flag in the timeline.
Airflow around sensor affects response time. Exposure to very high CO2 concentrations > 3,000 PPM may increase response time.

Press the data flag button to manually send a datapoint and insert a flag in the timeline.
Airflow around sensor affects response time. Exposure to very high CO2 concentrations &gt; 3,000 PPM may increase response time.
Breathing from nearby people and animals will significantly affect readings. Use &quot;Data Flag&quot; to annotate distrubances when employees are working near sensors. These flags can later be commented on to maintain integrity of data sets.
Calibration
<img src="https://growflux.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360044452952/GFX_Calibration__CO2_.jpg" alt="GFX_Calibration__CO2_.jpg">
Place sensor outdoors for 15 minutes and press calibration button for 5 seconds to initiate outdoor calibration; once initiated, calibration takes approximately 6 minutes to complete.
Do not breathe near sensor before or during calibration. Sensor may require calibration after being subject to drops and impact.
Calibration is recommended once per year but not required after shipping sensor.
LED Indicator
Solid red LED - upon battery install: Sensor is not bonded to an Access Point
Blinking blue LED - upon battery install: Sensor is currently bonded to an Access Point and is attempting to connect
Green LED - Successful connection or successful data flag 
Yellow LED - Sensor could not connect to an Access point 
White LED - Sensor received invitation and is bonding to Access Point
Violet LED - Sensor has entered calibration cycle. Light will turn off when complete - do not breathe near sensor

Coverage suggestions assume air mixing at point of supplementation (fans, air handlers, etc). Placing sensors near people, animals, or point sources of CO2 enrichment will cause higher than ambient readings.
High aspect ratio cultivation spaces, such as long greenhouses, may require higher sensor density.
Carbon dioxide is heavier than air and sinks; additional sensors are required for multi tier cultivation and vertical farming applications.
Sensor Quantity

GrowFlux generally states up to 300 sensors can be used with one Access Point, however depending on the sample interval, more or less sensors may be associated with an Access Point.
Adding devices such as GrowFlux Mesh compatible lights and dimmers will affect the maximum number of devices per Access Point.
An unlimited number of Access Points may be added to an account to support facilities of any size.

Life Safety
The GrowFlux CO2 Sensor is not intended for life safety applications! The GrowFlux CO2 Sensor is not suitable to comply with local safety regulations or to monitor personal exposure.
Exposure to carbon dioxide rich environments can cause death. Purchaser is responsible for implementing safety equipment, including but not limited to carbon dioxide alarms, shut off valves, personal monitors, and/or monitoring and safety equipment required per local regulations. The purchaser shall indemnify GrowFlux from all claims arising from any product use not covered by the parameters of this product data sheet or not approved by GrowFlux.
Vibration
High vibration and continuous vibration may affect accuracy of sensor. Do not mount on vibrating equipment.
Shock and impact
Drops and impact may cause minor mis-alignment within sensitive optical detectors. Sensor may require outdoor calibration after being subject to drops and impact. Outdoor calibration is recommended but not required after shipping sensor.
Ingress protection &amp; water
Sensor is designed for use in wet environments, including humid environments and light splashing. The stainless steel screen on sensor covers a hydrophobic fabric to protect sensing elements from light splashing. The sensor shall not be subject to water sprays of any pressure level. Do not submerge sensor in liquid. Water ingress due to excessive liquid exposure may void warranty. Clean sensor only with a damp cloth.
Chemical exposure
Exposing sensor to chemicals, such as organic solvents, alcohol, fuel, bleach, ammonia, alkaline agents, silanes, ozone, and the like will damage sensing elements and hydrophobic properties of the protective fabric.
Sunlight &amp; light exposure
As with all humidity sensors, high intensity light may interfere with the accuracy of humidity measurements. The GrowFlux CO2 sensor is designed to shield sensing elements from high intensity light, however GrowFlux recommends placing sensor in shade for optimal humidity sensor accuracy.
Sensors placed in direct sunlight or under high intensity artificial light, including LED light, will exhibit heat gain and affect temperature readings. GrowFlux advises placing the sensor away from direct exposure to sunlight and high intensity lights if accurate temperature readings are necessary.
