Hello, i did build the Dust sensor accordingly to the offical instruction. Since one Day it delivers Data (visible on the Grafana-Page), but it is not visible in the Map. It is not configured as indoor sensor. I tried the different filters on the Map. I configured an adress for the sensor to show on the Map. Can somebody please help me? Sensor-Id: 587034 ---

Please send here picture of the configuration of both: - sensor - devices.sensor.community Most of the time the configuration of the sensors is not the same. And are the checkboxes checked for API: - send to SC - send to madavi ---

Here are the Screenshot.

Maybe is it a problem, that this Sensor is registered as eps32? But it’s also an esp32. Or is it a problem that i did not use https? ---

Which firmware have you flashed ? the ESP32 one or the ESP8866 one ? Please reflash with the ESP32 firmware and remove the “Auto Update”. ---

I used the “latest\_de.bin” from the Airrohr Flasher v0.3.3. Where can i choose the esp32 Version? Or selects it automatically? ![Bildschirmfoto vom 2025-01-13 11-57-31](https://forum.sensor.community/uploads/default/original/2X/d/dfa5e1904191a5ca8933cbed95e38d54dc3b6298.png) ---

So it should be the explanation. @ricky-z the firware flasher still does not support esp32, does’nt it ? It should be this: > **[GitHub - opendata-stuttgart/sensors-software at beta-esp32-v2](https://github.com/opendata-stuttgart/sensors-software/tree/beta-esp32-v2)** > > beta-esp32-v2 But you will need Platformio to flash it. AS I always say: " if you don’t know exactly what you are doing, you should stick to the standard process." 🙂 Are you sure your board is an esp32 ? ---

> [@pjg](#): > > AS I always say: " if you don’t know exactly what you are doing, you should stick to the standard process." 🙂 Yes thats right 😏 > [@pjg](#): > > Are you sure your board is an esp32 ? Sry, no… i just have read the inscription. It’s an Lolin NodeMcu v3 ESP8266 🤦‍♂️ So the firmeware should be right. Maybe i just try an other Board. But in the Settings (Screenshot 1) it says its an esp32? How can i change this? ---

Can you please delete this Sensor-ID? I want to re-register my Sensor. As you can see on the Screenshot 1, i chosed the wrong Chip-type (esp32). Sensor-ID: 587034 Sorry for the inconvenience! ![grafik](https://forum.sensor.community/uploads/default/original/2X/f/f585609cd897493be419c63f7b77721ae62d9443.png) ---

So it is a ESP8266 🙂 The sensor as to be set up again from the beginning. @ricki-z must do it. Don’t do anything for now. @ricki-z Please reregister the sensor as an esp8266. ---

Hello @Tommy-01 , I’ve changed the chip type to an esp8266. The registration should be okay now. ---

Yes, great, i can see it on the map! 😃 Thanks a lot to you two for your help! I will position it in its final place in the next few days. I hope my data contributes to something useful. I think citizen science projects are a good thing. Thank you again! ---

Hi! I have the same problem, my sensor dont visible on the map. Could you help me to configure it properly? Thank you very much! ### Iotroniq IOT-AQS3xx/AQS4xx air quality sensor **ID: 2702617 (c4d8d5293d19) Firmware version: NRZ-2020-133 (iotroniq mod.

It looks like your SPS30 isn’t correctly registered. Please check the Hardware configuration section of the Settings page. One Sensor Type should be SPS30, the other BME280. ---

You were right, I set SPS30 and now works like a charm. Thank you very much for your prompt support! 😉
