ReadSensor()​

Convenience method to get the current concentration. For frequent reads, use StartSampling() and StopSampling() in conjunction with the SampleBuffer.

View Source​
Declaration
protected override Task<Concentration> ReadSensor()
Returns​

System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Meadow.Units.Concentration>: The concentration averages of the given sample count### StartUpdating(TimeSpan?) Starts updating the sensor on the updateInterval frequency specified

Declaration
public override void StartUpdating(TimeSpan? updateInterval = null)
Parameters​
TypeName
System.Nullable<System.TimeSpan>updateInterval

StopUpdating()​

Stops sampling the concentration

View Source​
Declaration
public override void StopUpdating()

VoltageToConcentration(Voltage)​

Converts voltage to Concentration

View Source​
Declaration
protected Concentration VoltageToConcentration(Voltage voltage)
Returns​

Meadow.Units.Concentration: Concentration
