FW 3.7.0 Official Release - AirGradient ONE & Open Air

Hey folks,

I would like to inform you that we are starting to roll out the new firmware version 3.7.0 for the AirGradient ONE (I-9PSL-DE) and the Open Air (O-1PST).

This update includes changes introduced between versions 3.6.2 and 3.7.0. Here are some highlights that you will get from this 3.7.0 update:

  • Added support for the Sensirion SPS30 PM sensor (for both ONE and Open Air)
  • Added GO IAQS Score Mode for AirGradient ONE’s LED bar & OLED display
  • Improved Wi-Fi portal start-up speed
  • Enabled secure OTA firmware update over HTTPS
  • Added CoAP communication for cellular models
  • Fixed PM2.5 correction algorithm issues
  • Added multi-A-record DNS failover for Wi-Fi HTTPS connections

There are also a lot of improvements in the background, you can check them out here: Releases · Open-Air-Foundation/arduino · GitHub .

Please note that it may take time to get the new firmware. Some users may receive the update this weekend, while other users may receive it a bit later.


Also, it’s worth mentioning that we recently set up the Open Air Foundation in Switzerland to strengthen our non-profit activities. Our firmware repositories have now been transferred to the foundation’s GitHub, which will host all our open-source projects.


As always, if you find any issues or have feedback on the new firmware, please feel free to leave your comment here. Looking forward to hearing from you all!

Cheers!
Tai

Two of my indoor units received an update today to 3.7.0 and I have noticed the following:

With LED mode set to GO IAQS, both units will fail to connect to Home Assistant with the following message “Failed setup, will retry: Field “led_bar_mode” of type LedBarMode in Config has invalid value “iaqs”.” After changing back to PM2.5 LED mode, the units will re-connect to Home Assistant just fine.

Furthermore - GO IAQS is not selectable within the mobile app, it seems it’s only accessible through the web dashboard.

Anyway - keep up the good work!.

Could you help to share why the change to support Sensirion SPS30 PM sensor?

We’ve been testing the Sensirion SPS30 more extensively and have become more familiar with it, especially since it is also used in the AirGradient Go.

Adding support in the ONE and Open Air firmware gives us more flexibility and lets us support it as an option alongside the Plantower sensors.

Hi @underwater - this may be a bug. I will tag @Tai_AirGradient who can raise this with @Samuel_AirGradient and also log this for implementation for the mobile app.

I appreciate the emails that are sent to me when one of my air gradient units goes offline. What usually happens is that whatever transient issue was causing the problem resolves itself without my intervention. So I tend to ignore these emails.

Unfortunately, when it’s a real issue that doesn’t resolve itself, I don’t take action for several days, because most of the time I don’t have to do anything.

What I would like is for a second email to be sent when the unit comes back online, that way I would notice much sooner that the unit is still offline and that I actually need to intervene.

Thank you, everyone, for reporting issues and giving us your feedback.

@underwater, this is an excellent finding! This one needs to be addressed on the HA integration side. Our team is working on it. The issue should be fixed in a future HA release.

@complexworld, thank you for your feedback on the notification! Let me log this to our feature request list.
