co2mon

A driver for the Holtek CO₂ USB monitors, tested using a TFA-Dostmann AIRCO2TROL MINI sensor.

Permissions

On Linux, you need to be able to access the USB HID device. For that, you can save the following udev rule to /etc/udev/rules.d/60-co2mon.rules:

ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04d9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="a052", MODE:="0666"

Then reload the rules and trigger them:

udevadm control --reload
udevadm trigger

Note that the udev rule above makes the device accessible to every local user.

Quick start

cargo run --example watch

Releases

Release notes are available in CHANGELOG.md.

Protocol

The USB HID protocol is not documented, but was reverse-engineered before.

The implementation was inspired by this one.
