How it is wired
Sensors report to a gateway, which forwards to Thingsform over MQTT. What sets the platform apart is the lower line: the command goes back to the equipment.

What the platform does with these readings
The dashboard is only the visible part: each metric can carry a threshold, drift detection and a command in return.
AQI
12–156- Threshold outside the 12–156 range
- Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
- Command sent back to the device over MQTT or Modbus
PM2.5
4–85 µg/m³- Threshold outside the 4–85 µg/m³ range
- Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
- Correlation with the site's other readings
PM10
8–120 µg/m³- Threshold outside the 8–120 µg/m³ range
- Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
- Correlation with the site's other readings
VOC
50–450 ppb- Threshold outside the 50–450 ppb range
- Slow drift, spotted before the threshold is crossed
- Correlation with the site's other readings
Start with the Air quality monitoring dashboard
It ships configured. Connect your sensors over MQTT, HTTP or Modbus, and your values take the place of these.
