Introduction to Sensedge

The Sensedge is a building-grade air quality monitor, designed to measure 

a range of pollutants and air quality parameters. The Sensedge supports 

multiple methods of data communication and has a wide range of features for 

data collection, analysis and export. Up to 50 million air quality readings can 

be stored on the device, and can be viewed using the embedded touchscreen, 

or exported for further analysis.

This user manual will provide a basic guide to the first use, installation, and 

basic troubleshooting of the Sensedge.

Further information, tutorials and trouble-shooting can be found on the Kait-

erra Support Portal, at http://www.kaiterra.com/support

Externals and air flow

Air is drawn into the Sensedge from both the modules on the lower side, as 

well as the air intake on the upper side. It is vital that neither side of the device 

is covered, or the airflow blocked. Any changes in airflow may affect the read-

ings and accuracy of the Sensedge.

Connection ports

The Sensedge has four ports for connectivity:

Micro-USB: Used to supply power to the Sensedge. Only use the cable and 

charger/adapter supplied with the device.

USB (type A): 

For use with external accessories that require a standard USB 

connection. For a list of compatible accessories, visit the Kaiterra website.

Micro-SD Card slot: 

The Sensedge supports SD cards for data export. Only 

use [type] micro-SD cards (under 64GB).

Ethernet: 

Used for data transfer via Ethernet. The Sensedge does not support 

PoE - the micro-USB port must be used for power.
