DEVICE SETUP OPTIONS
2. Device Operations
Option 1: Using Mobile App
Press the configuration button for about 3 seconds until the indicator
light flashes red and green alternately and then release the button to
enter the setup mode.
Under the power-on state, press the Configuration button once, the green
light starts flashing at this time to connect to the network and send data.
If the red light is on, the data sending failure; if the red light is not on, the
data sending success. (After power on, the green light will flash continu-
ously for 15 minutes)
Double-click the Configuration button to turn voice prompts off or on. At
the same time, update the data collected by the device.
Under the power-on state, press and hold the configuration button for
about 15s until the red indicator lights up, then release the button to
restore the factory state.
Breathing lamp can light up 4 colors: green, yellow, orange and red. Each
color indicates a corresponding value range of the data collected by AQS1.
The working status of the breathing lamp (always on, off, breathing,
blinking) can be set through the platform.

Download the App from www.ubibot.com/setup, or search for 'Ubibot' on the AppStore or Google Play.
Download the tool from www.ubibot.com/setup.
This Tool is a desktop app for device setup. It is also helpful in checking setup failure reasons, MAC address,
and offline charts. You can also use it to export offline data stored in the device internal memory.
We recommend you try to use the PC Tools in case the App setup fails, because the failure may be due to
mobile phone incompatibility. The PC Tools is much easier to operate and suitable for both Mac and Windows.

SETUP USING THE APP FOR MOBILE NETWORK *
Before you set up the device on mobile data, please check the APN information of the SIM card used for the
UbiBot device.
An APN (Access Point Name) provides the details your device needs to connect to mobile data through your
network operator. APN details differ by network and you will need to get these from your network operator.
With the device off, insert the SIM card as indicated in the picture. Launch the app and log in. Tap the "+" to start

collect data every will be uploaded via RS485 after each data collection. The default is off.
For more details, please contact your local distributor or online document.
SETUP USING PC TOOLS
STEP 1. Launch the App and log in. With the device switched on, use the Type-C USB cable provided to
connect your device to the computer. The PC Tools will automatically scan and recognize the

FAQ
1. Device network configuration failure reasons
① Please check whether the WiFi account password is correct;
② Please check whether the router is working properly and the network connection is normal;
③ Please make sure the device has entered the WiFi configuration mode;
④ Please check whether the WiFi band is 2.4GHz and the channel is between 1~13;
⑤ Please check the WiFi channel width is set to 20MHz or auto mode;
⑥ WiFi security type: LD1 supports OPEN, WEP and WPA/WPA2-personal;
⑦ Poor signal strength, please check the WiFi or cell phone data traffic signal strength.
2. Reasons for failure to send device data
3. Can the device be used in a network-free environment?
① Check whether the external power supply of the device is properly connected;
② Check whether the router is working properly;
③ If using the mobile data traffic provided by the SIM card* inside the device, you need to check whether the
SIM card* is activated; if the SIM card* is activated, check whether the power supply of the device is normal;
also check whether the amount of the mobile data traffic provided by the device SIM card* is sufficient for the
data transfer.
The device can still work without a network, if you need to check the historical data, you can refer to the
following methods:
① After monitoring in no network working environment, you can take it back to the previously configured WiFi
environment or insert the SIM card and press the configuration button once to upload the data automatically;
② In the case of no network, connect to the computer through the USB cable, and export the data through the
PC tool.

representatives respond within 24 hours and often in less than an hour. You can also contact the local distribu-
tors in your contry for localized service. Please go to our website to view their contacts.
4. Deviation in temperature values after first configuration of equipment?
① The device has been configured for too long and the CPU working temperature is high;
② The device sends data too frequently, resulting in a temperature higher than 0.2~0.3℃;
③ Turn on the TVOC sensor or PM, CO2 and other sensors to collect too often will produce a certain tempera-
ture rise.
5. Only part of the data is displayed on the platform after the equipment
has been successfully connected to the network?
Different sensors require different acquisition times. You need to click the Configuration button to upload
manually, or wait for automatic uploading before all data is displayed.
For more frequently asked questions, please visit www.ubibot.com and go to the "Community and Documen-
tation" page.
6. The difference between CO2 and eCO2.
Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is a chemical compound made up of molecules that each have one
carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. It is found in the gas state at room temperature,
and as the source of available carbon in the carbon cycle.
Equivalent CO2 (eCO2), also known as Global Warming Potential weighted greenhouse gas emissions (GWP), is
a unit, that allows emissions of greenhouse gases of different strengths to be added together. eCO2 is estimat-
ed concentration of carbon dioxide calculated from known TVOC concentration.
