To pair IEQ sensors with a site

When editing a site, you have the ability to pair one or more IEQ sensors with a site. This allows you to monitor a variety of parameters relating to indoor environmental quality. For more information about managing and monitoring IEQ sensor data, see To manage sensors and To perform sensor monitoring.

To pair a sensor with a site, the Daikin AirSense app is required. It can be downloaded from the App Store1 or Google Play.2

When pairing a sensor, make sure you have access to both the app and Daikin Cloud Service at the same time.

1

Open the Daikin AirSense app and log in using the credentials received from your Daikin representative.

2

Press and hold the power button on your sensor for 4 seconds.

  • Result: The sensor shows a blue light, followed by a green light, then begins to blink with a blue light every second. The sensor is now in configuration mode and ready to be paired.

3

Scan the QR code on your sensor using the app.

4

Allow the app to join the sensor's WiFi network.

5

Choose your data collection method.

  • Result: The sensor is now paired with the app.

Depending on your location, the data collection method can be either NB-IoT or WiFi. NB-IoT is not supported in all countries.

6

Assign a site to the sensor.

7

Name your sensor. Note that the name entered here is the sensor name that will be shown in Daikin Cloud Service.

8

In the navigation pane of Daikin Cloud Service, select Sites under Administration.

  • Result: The currently available sites are displayed.

9

Locate your site and note down or remember the number in the ID column (a).

10

Return to the Daikin AirSense app and enter the site ID number (a) from the previous step as the Plant ID (in this case, the site ID is "1").

11

Create or choose a group for your sensor.

12

Select Daikin Cloud Service as the data visualization platform.

13

In Daikin Cloud Service, click the pencil (b) next to the site you want to pair a sensor with.

14

Scroll down to the IEQ sensors section (c).

15

Click Add sensor to site (d).

  • Result: A drop-down menu (e) appears.

16

Select the sensor using the drop-down menu (e).

17

Click the Save button (f).

  • Result: The sensor is listed under IEQ sensors. It may take a couple of seconds before it appears in the list.

To unpair an IEQ sensor from a site

1

In the IEQ sensors section (b), click the red cross (g) next to the sensor to unpair it.

  • Result: The sensor is no longer paired with the site.

To re-pair an already paired IEQ sensor (revert to configuration mode)

1

Press and hold the power button on the sensor for 6 seconds in order to turn the sensor OFF completely.

2

Press and hold the power button on the sensor until you hear 3 beeps.

  • Result: The sensor shows a blue light, followed by a green light, then begins to blink with a blue light every second. The sensor is now in configuration mode and ready to be paired again.
