Bugfix
- Use the internal Pull-up resistor to get a more consistent recording for the button press
Bugfix v1.2
- The battery monitor is fixed
- Lowered the error on the screen to have a better reading of the display
Version 1.1
This version adds the feature to calibrate the sensor also on 100% oxygen.
Oxygen sensors don't have a fully linear scale especially if they are near the end of there lifespan.
The meter calibrates at boot time to air resulting in a mV measurement for 20,9% oxygen or 0,209 ppO2
Once that is done and you measure 100% oxygen and you start a forced calibration ( by long pressing the button )
The meter is also calibrated on the 100% oxygen, thus saving 2 setpoints:
- 1 setpoint has a mV reading for a ppO2 of 0,209 Bar resulting in 20,9% air
- 2e setpoint has a mV reading for a ppO2 of 1,00 Bar resulting in 100% oxygen
Blue line is with the calibration done on 1 setpoint (air) and thus if the sensor is fully linear we would expect this line,
However when we calibrate on 100% oxygen the red line is used for the calculations.
As you can see the drift is the biggest towards the 100% point, thus this is mainly important whey you want to sample high oxygens percentages.
The 100% oxygen setpoint is stored in EEPROM to survive a reboot.
When calibrating to 100% oxygen it is advised to do this often over time to avoid introducing a bigger error then the linear drift does.
Important: by pressing the button for a long time ( > 5second) then 100% oxygen calibration is erased and a recalibration starts at air
