I recently purchased and set up the O-1PST Kit, but the temperature readings seem to be way off. It always stays between 25–28°C, even though it should be much lower (around 20°C). Is there any way to calibrate or fix this?
Could you please apply the Standard Open Air Calibration and let me know if that improves the accuracy? You can do so from the ‘Advanced Settings’ menu:
Once there, please navigate to the temperature/RH tab:
I have same issue temperature off +~10C

Also with the outdoor unit, or indoor?
If Outdoor, did you do what Ethan suggested?
If Indoor, did you assemble it yourself? There is a chance you put the temp sensor in the wrong location that can cause high readings.

Hi @mye,
If the device is systematically 10 degrees higher than a device you trust, you can apply a custom offset on the dashboard. You can do this in the same place where you can apply the Standard Open Air calibration (shown in screenshots above).
If it is an indoor monitor, the issue is likely what @MallocArray mentioned.

what’s the solution for outdoor temperature to hight for 4C? replacing PMS5003T Sensor?
do we know if low signal - 80 rsi causes temperature to be wrong due, to proc heatup? was this tested?
support, does not respond…
Hi @TeMpL - if your ticket is #27672 - I believe I’ve responded to you yesterday. If you have not received the response, let me know, I can resend it. Thanks.

Hi @TeMpL - I suggest you create a new support ticket using your correct email address here: https://www.airgradient.com/support/
Our responses don’t appear to be reaching you.
ok I will try to raise a support ticket.
hahahhahha … temperature is at night +4K off… and answer is:
To improve temperature accuracy, we recommend mounting the unit in a shaded, well-ventilated location, away from surfaces that can radiate heat.
reference calibrated termometer from hanna… read on same place -4K lower temperature.
i wil try and mount computer fan under it… cool it better… for test
with fan temperature is -2k (calibrated)… (so to low) and cca +6 raw…
i think this unit is not mature nought to be used…
