# Vindriktning Particle Sensor (IKEA)
This is an experiment to read the serial data from the "PM1006" LED Particle Sensor that is inside a Vindriktning from IKEA using node.js
## Setup
### Hardware
First we need to connect a UART-to-USB. You should be able to find a simple board searching for the "FT232RL" chip.
- Connect the GND pin to the GND pin of the FT232RL.
- Connect the REST pin of the Vindriktning to the Rx pin of the FT232RL.
- Optionally you could also connect Vcc (5V) to power the Vindriktning by the FT232RL board directly.
Alternative Solutions might be:
- DIY "Feinstaubsensor Nova Fitness"
### Software
First make sure to adjust `SERIAL_PORT` in [index.js](index.js). On windows this might be something like "COM3" instead.
```
npm install
npm start
```
Output:
```
serialport connection to "/dev/ttyUSB0" opened

PM1.0: 1480 µg/m³, PM2.5: 14 µg/m³, PM10: 1 µg/m³
