Support Portal, at http://www.kaiterra.com/support Externals and air flow Air is drawn into the Sensedge from both the modules on the lower side, as well as the air intake on the upper side. It is vital that neither side of the device is covered, or the airflow blocked.
Mini screw driver: Used to remove and attach the Sensedge wall mount from the Sensedge body. The mini screw driver is not for use with the wall screws, and should not be used to mount the device on a wall.
Sensedge can have a measurable impact on temperature. Changes in airflow or currents in an indoor space can all have a measurable impact on the readings of the Sensedge, and correct usage is vital for accurate and reliable readings.
Powering up the device Before turning the Sensedge on for the first time, connect it to a power source using the Micro-USB cable and adapter supplied. Upon connection to power, a battery level will be displayed on the screen.
By default the Kaiterra Overall Index is used, but this may be modified in the settings menu, to utilise a variety of air quality standards and indices.
For details, see the guide for the app being used. Sensors Modular sensors currently inserted into the two bays of the Sensedge will be displayed on this page. The model number of the module is displayed, along- side the current readings of the sensor, and the module’s health.
Time By default, the Sensedge is configured to automatically set the date and time when connected to the Internet. For seamless capture and storage of air qual- ity data, it is important to ensure the date, time, and timezone are set correctly on the device.

The current firmware version of the Sensedge can be seen in the device details page, as well as several settings regarding firmware updates. The Sensedge supports over-the-air (OTA) updates, so that the firmware running on the device may be updated. Firmware updaters make both new features as well as security upgrades available.
Mounting the Sensedge The Sensedge may be used as a portable device, or mounted on a wall. Mounting the Sensedge is done by first mounting the backplate to the wall, using three screws. Once mounted, the main device may be inserted, by first inserting the upper side, and then the lower side.
The default calibration is appropriate for most applications, as it simulates the wide variety of ambient aerosols found in urban locations. When connected to the Kaiterra cloud, by default, the Sensedge’s calibration factor will automatically be adjusted according to the geographic location of the device, using cloud based calibration.
