The pm2.5 isn't update after setup

[pjmpessers]

Just recieved the awair element and connected to the awair app. It receives the data just fine on there app. Got a api-key and connected without a problem to homey. Every 5 minutes it receives the new values exept pm2.5. It receives a value after setup, but then it stops. I tried everything that was possible.

Also would it be possible to change the value of refreshing the values sooner.

Thanks.

Update: it seems that it is updating. Unless the value of the pm2.5 is to high. A reading of 200 or more isn't recieved

faster refresh is not possible for us, you will be blocked for 24 hours.

            },

can you open the awair app and click on pm2.5 ,for me it is from 0 to 80.

Thank you for the quick response, Edwin.

Awair element should be the same as the awair 2nd edition. Only a plastic housing.

Thank you for explaining that the time limitation lays at the server of awair and that the don't let us contact the server shorter than once every 5 minutes.

I have someone in the household that smokes and on the awair app it came over 600. That value won't be pushed to homey.

My intention is to speed up my mechanical ventilation once that it notice my pm2.5 goes up by cooking in the kitchen.

[biemond]

cool , I will change it to 800
