Pressure compensation
---------------------
Ambient pressure compensation compensation can be changed from :ref:`lambdas <config-lambda>`
A static ambient pressure value can be set with `ambient_pressure_compensation` or `altitude_compensation`. It can also be changed dynamically with :ref:`lambdas <config-lambda>` using `set_ambient_pressure_compensation(<mBar>)`, or by pointing `ambient_pressure_compensation_source` to a local pressure sensor.
Example with a local sensor
***************************
``set_ambient_pressure_compensation( <pressure in bar)``
Example
*******
Note: that the pressure from bme280 is in hPa and must be converted to bar.
Note: remember your pressure sensor needs to output in mBar
.. code-block:: yaml
sensor:
- platform: scd4x
id: scd41
i2c_id: bus_a
co2:
name: co2
id: co2
- platform: bme280
pressure:
name: "BME280-Pressure"
id: bme280_pressure
oversampling: 1x
on_value:
name: "Ambient Pressure"
id: bme_pressure
- platform: scd4x
measurement_mode: low_power_periodic
ambient_pressure_compensation_source: bme_pressure
temperature_offset: 0
co2:
name: "CO2 level"
Example with a remote sensor
****************************
This example creates a service `set_ambient_pressure` that can be called from Home Assistant:
.. code-block:: yaml
api:
services:
- service: set_ambient_pressure
variables:
pressure_mbar: int
then:
- lambda: "id(scd41)->set_ambient_pressure_compensation(x / 1000.0);"
- lambda: "id(my_scd41)->set_ambient_pressure_compensation(pressure_mbar);"
sensor:
- platform: scd4x
id: my_scd41
measurement_mode: low_power_periodic
temperature_offset: 0
co2:
name: "CO2 level"
