Welcome to the bcmeter.org Wiki
The bcMeter wiki is the technical documentation hub for the bcMeter platform — an open-source optical absorption photometer for measuring Black Carbon (BC) aerosols in real-time.
Whether you are setting up a new device, configuring measurements, or building your own unit, this wiki covers everything you need.
Getting Started
- Introduction — What is bcMeter, how it works, capabilities
- Setup — Hardware requirements, first boot, WiFi configuration
- Interface — Web dashboard overview, status indicators, chart controls
Using bcMeter
- Configuration — All settings: network, measurement, device, email
- Maintenance — Filter changes, calibration, data management
- Troubleshooting — Common issues and solutions
- Best practices — Environment, sampling, signal quality
Technical Reference
- Developer mode — Hidden developer settings, hardware tuning
- API reference — REST API endpoints for automation and integration
- CSV data format — Column definitions and data structure
- Serial commands — USB debug interface
Building a bcMeter (V1 Legacy)
The following pages document the bcMeter V1 hardware. The current V2 platform has a different hardware design.
- Working principle — Optical measurement principle
- Bill of material — Component list and costs (V1)
- Device assembly — Hardware build instructions (V1)
Software
The bcMeter software is open source: github.com/dahljo/bcmeter
The codebase includes the web interface, REST API, measurement engine, and all device management functionality.
