====== Unipi sensors ======
Unipi sensors are divided by the technology used and their application (indoor or outdoor use).

===== 1-Wire =====
If you need only temperature or humidity sensors, 1-Wire devices are an ideal choice. You can choose from indoor, outdoor, sump, water-proof or other specialized sensors. [[https://www.unipi.technology/1-wire-c3|Our product listing]] includes temperature sensors designed for measurements in boiler rooms, HVAC installations etc. We also offer indoor **temperature** and **temperature/humidity** sensors, each having two variants differing in their design.
These sensors are described in detail in [[en:hw:05-sensors:1-wire|this article focused on Unipi 1-Wire devices]]. More info about the 1-Wire bus and **sensor connection** is available [[en:automation:02-glossary:1wire-hidden|in this 1-Wire article]].
===== Analog sensors =====
If you require very precise temperature readings, you can achieve so with analog sensors. This type of sensors is available in outdoor, sump, water-proof or otherwise specialised variants. [[https://www.unipi.technology/resistance-sensors-c49|On our e-shop]], you can find mainly temperature sensors designed for measurements in boiler rooms, air conditioning systems etc.
For more detailed description of these sensors, visit the article about [[en:hw:05-sensors:analog|analog sensors available on our e-shop]]. For more info about the 1-Wire bus and **sensor connection**, please visit [[en:automation:02-glossary:1wire-hidden|this article about 1-Wire]].
===== IAQ - Interior Air Quality =====
If you are interested in a **complex solution**, we recommend using our brand-new on-wall IAQ sensors designed for general **air quality monitoring** in rooms the sensor is installed in.
A list of quantities measured using the sensors:
* air temperature
* air humidity
* VOC (volatile organic compound) concentration - air quality index
* barometric pressure
* ambient light
* CO2 concentration*
The device is available **in four variants**. All variants feature sensors of temperature, humidity, pressure, ambient light and VOC. The first variant is equipped only with those basic sensors, the second adds **CO2 sensor**. The other two variants share the same functionality but are also provided with the **LoRaWAN** communication interface.
Each variant features at least two communication interfaces, the first being **RS485** and the second represented by well-known **Wi-Fi**. RS485 interface utilizes the **Modbus RTU** protocol, while the Wi-Fi support multiple protocols including **Modbus TCP, MQTT, and HTTP/REST** and a web interface, serving also for management and configuration of the device.
