Installing the VB-SEN-001
There are two options to install the VB-SEN-001 onto the ViewBoard.
Install Option 1
- Unscrew the two (2) screws located on the corner of the ViewBoard.
- Attach the mounting bracket to the ViewBoard with the two (2) screws that were removed in Step 1.
- Using the two (2) included thumb screws, attach the VB-SEN-001 to the mounting bracket.
- Connect the USB Type B end of the USB cable to the USB Type B port of the VB-SEN-001. Then connect the other end, the USB Type A, to the USB Type A port of the ViewBoard.
Install Option 2
- Using the two (2) included thumb screws, attach the VB-SEN-001 to the ViewBoard via the two (2) screw holes located at the bottom.
- Connect the USB Type B end of the USB cable to the USB Type B port of the VB-SEN-001.
- Connect the USB Type A end of the USB cable to the USB Type A port of the ViewBoard.
Staus Bar
When the VB-SEN-001 is connected to a ViewBoard, a Status Bar will be present on the launcher screen. Tapping the Status Bar will open an Environmental Monitoring pop-up.
Environmental Monitoring
The temperature, humidity, PM2.5, and CO2 levels will all be monitored.
A line graph will show the logged data. At any time an individual metric can be selected. Additionally, the logged data can be exported in a .csv format.
NFC Lock
Use NFC cards to quickly lock/unlock the ViewBoard screen. To add an NFC card:
- Go to: Settings > Preferences > NFC Lock
- Tap Add NFC Card.
- Tap the NFC card to the NFC sensor on the VB-SEN-001 to add the NFC Number. Then input a name for it.
- Now the ViewBoard can be locked/unlocked with the NFC card.
Body Detection
Use the VB-SEN-001’s PIR sensor’s body detection to wake or put the ViewBoard in sleep mode. To setup Body Detection:
- Go to: Settings > Preferences > Startup & Shutdown
- Toggle Body Detection On. Then set a time to enter sleep mode when no body is detected.

NOTE:
- In indoor air quality testing applications, it is common to use Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to calculate the equivalent carbon dioxide (eCO2). This method is based on the assumption that the sources and emissions of CO2 and VOCs in indoor environments come from people.
However, not all VOCs are produced by humans, such as some building materials, new paints, or a liquid with a scent which can cause an increase in VOC levels. Since eCO2 is derived from VOC equivalence, the eCO2 value may increase accordingly, but in fact, the concentration of CO2 may not have changed.
When the gas concentration around exceeds the range of measurement, the eCO2 value will display as 0 and remain unchanged. As the concentration falls within the measurement range, it will gradually recover.
Compliance Information
This section addresses all connected requirements and statements regarding regulations. Confirmed corresponding applications shall refer to nameplate labels and relevant markings on the unit.
FCC Compliance Statement
This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
