Installation
- Keep at least 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) away from areas with significant vents, or pollution sources. This includes air vents, doors, windows, cooking areas etc.
- Install the device in a location that allows free air flow.
- For effective vaping or smoking detection, install the device on the ceiling at a height of 2.4–2.7 meters (7.9–8.9 feet) from the floor.
- For effective air quality and environmental monitoring, install the device at a height of 0.9–1.8 meters (3.0–5.9 feet) from the floor.
For detailed installation instructions, refer to the installation guide.

Set up rules for events
To learn more, check out our guide Get started with rules for events.
Record video when there is an alarm
The following example explains how to set up a camera to record video to an SD card when the air quality sensor detects vaping.
In the camera’s webpage, go to Settings > System > Storage to check that the SD card is mounted.
Go to Settings > System > Events and add a rule. Enter the following information:
Name: Type a name for the rule.
Condition: Air quality monitor > Vaping or smoking detected.
Action: Recordings > Record video.
Storage: SD card . Make sure the SD card is mounted.
Camera: Select a camera view area.
Stream profile: Select a stream profile or Create a stream profile.
Prebuffer and Postbuffer: Set the desired values.
Click Save.
Activate strobe siren over MQTT when there is an alarm
This example explains how to connect a camera to the strobe siren over MQTT, and activate a profile in the strobe siren whenever the air quality sensor, connected with the camera, detects temperature is out of the preset range.
Check that a PoE class 4 power supply is used, when the device is connected to a strobe siren.
Before you start :
Create a profile in the strobe siren.
Set up an MQTT broker and get the broker’s IP address, username and password.
Set up AXIS Air quality monitor in the camera.
Set up the MQTT client in the camera :
In the camera’s webpage, go to System > MQTT > MQTT client > Broker and enter the following information:
Host: Broker IP address
Client ID: For example Camera 1
Protocol: The protocol the broker is set to
Port: The port number used by the broker
The broker Username and Password
Click Save and Connect.
Create a rule in the camera for MQTT publishing :
Go to System > Events > Rules and add a rule.
Enter the following information:
Name: Temperature out of range
Condition: Air quality monitor > Air quality outside acceptable range
Sensor: Temperature
Action: MQTT > Send MQTT publish message
Topic: Temperature out of range
Payload: On
QoS: 0, 1 or 2
Click Save.
Set up the temperature range
In the camera’s webpage, go to Air quality monitor > Settings . Enter the MIN and MAX data to set the temperature range.
Set up the MQTT client in the strobe siren :
In the strobe siren’s webpage, go to System > MQTT > MQTT client > Broker and enter the following information:
Host: Broker IP address
Client ID: Siren 1
Protocol: The protocol the broker is set to
Port: The port number used by the broker
Username and Password
Click Save and Connect.
Go to MQTT subscriptions and add a subscription.
Enter the following information:
Subscription filter: Temperature out of range
Subscription type: Stateful
QoS: 0, 1 or 2
Click Save.
Create a rule in the strobe siren for MQTT subscriptions :
Go to System > Events > Rules and add a rule.
Enter the following information:
Name: Temperature out of range
Condition: MQTT > Stateful
Subscription filter: Temperature out of range
Payload: On
Action: Light and siren > Run light and siren profile while the rule is active
Profile: Select the profile you want to be active.
Click Save.
Flash status LED on air quality sensor when there is an alarm
This example explains how to flash status LED on air quality sensor when CO2 is too high.
Create a rule
In the camera’s webpage, go to Events >Rules > Add a rule to create a rule.
Enter the following information:
Name: Type a name for the rule.
Conditions: Air quality monitor >Air quality outside acceptable range
Sensors: CO2
Actions: Flash I/O interface status LED
Color: Red
Duration
Click Save.
- Set up the alarm range for CO2
In the camera's webpage, go to Air quality monitor > Settings > CO2.
Enter the MIN and MAX data to set the CO2 range.
Calibration for the first run of the device
- The AQI (Air Quality Index) requires 12 hours to be functional the first time the device runs. The AQI will show Calculating until it has enough data.
- Full CO2 accuracy takes 2 days the first time the device runs.
- Full VOC accuracy takes one hour the first time the device runs.
- Full NOₓ accuracy takes 6 hours the first time the device runs.
