CaDi CI-100 Overview
The CaDi CI-100 CO2 monitor is a non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) based
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Sensor designed for monitoring CO2 concentration
and health. The monitor features a CO2 sensor that is stable and
maintenance free with a measurement range from 0-5000ppm. The CO2
monitor comes with integrated WiFi to enable remote monitoring via a
smartphone app.
Why monitor CO2:
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless, odorless gas formed by humans and
animals as they exhale carbon dioxide as well as a by-product from fires
and other combustion sources.
air is being circulated to occupants and that other pollutants may also
be building up indoors and so controlling CO2 levels will help control
indoor air quality in general.
Simple steps such as ensuring vents are kept open and windows are
opened whenever CO2 levels build up can maintain good levels of indoor
air quality.
The following table provide guidance
on the optimum level of CO2 are and
what is considered fair and poor
levels of CO2.
Good Ventilation
Typical of normal C02 levels in
occupied spaces
OK
Fair
Poor
0-999 ppm
1000-1999 ppm
2000-5000 ppm
Inadequate Ventilation
Can cause feelings of drowsiness
and or headaches
Poor Ventilation
Stale, stagnant air which can cause
drowsiness, nausea and poor
concentration

Know your CaDi sensor
A. Status LED –LED will flash when setting up and or when the device
is disconnected from Wi-Fi. A steady Green LED is on when connected.
It changes colour from Green to Orange to Red depending on CO2 level,
Green being Ok.
B. Power Port – Connects the included power adapter with your CaDi
sensor.
C. Reset Button – Resetting CaDi will allow you to connect to a new Wi-Fi
network (useful if you change the sensor’s location or change your
Wi-Fi password). Using the reset pin supplied and with the CaDi sensor
powered on; Press this button for 8 seconds and then release. If the
sensor has reset correctly the Status LED’s will slowly blink green.
D. Air Vents – These are important vents that allow air flow through your
sensor – be careful not to block these and leave plenty of space (at
least 10 cm) between other surfaces for optimum performance. Please
refer to ‘Cleaning your CaDi sensor’ (page 7) for more information.
