Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the CO₂ sensing range of MacSync-LCO2 sensors?
The MacSync-LCO2 series includes models with ranges from 0–2,000 ppm, 0–5,000 ppm, up to 40,000 ppm, depending on the selected variant (LCO21 / LCO22 / LCO23).
How accurate is the CO₂ measurement?
The sensor offers high accuracy: up to ±(40 ppm + 5%) depending on the model, with factory calibration and drift compensation.
Does the sensor measure other parameters?
Yes. In addition to CO₂, the MacSync-LCO2 sensor also provides temperature and humidity readings, making it ideal for indoor air quality monitoring.
What communication protocols are supported?
The sensor communicates over LoRaWAN® Class A & C, ensuring ultra-low power and long-range data transmission.
Can I configure the sensor locally?
Yes. You can configure the sensor using the Macnman Maya App via BLE, or remotely using LoRaWAN® downlinks.
What are the ideal applications for this sensor?
Common applications include smart buildings, greenhouses, offices, HVAC control, and indoor air quality management in schools and public areas.
Is the sensor battery-powered?
Yes. The device is optimized for low power consumption and supports long-term, battery-powered deployment.
What is the typical response time?
The sensor has a response time of around 60 seconds, suitable for real-time ambient CO₂ level monitoring.
Is it compatible with any LoRaWAN® network?
Yes. MacSync-LCO2 is compatible with all major LoRaWAN® servers, including TTN, ChirpStack, Loriot, and others.
