###Setup
- Team members Assembling new devices? - Take a look at the BeagleBone Black Environment Setup page.
- Community members (anyone who has purchased a device) - Please take a look at the Station Registration page to find instructions on how to register your device(s). Also, read about the Modes of Operation below.
###Modes of Operation Each AirU station currently supports two modes of operation, lab and field mode. The mode of the station can be set by toggling the operation mode switch (shown below) between these two modes. These two modes are outlined in more detail below.
TODO: Get picture of operation mode switch and reference it here.
####Field Mode Field mode is the operation mode which uploads data to our AirU web service. In this mode, we assume you have properly followed the setup instructions with your station(s).
####Lab Mode Our first revision of AirU stations was originally designed to operate solely in Field mode. Lab mode was created because a need was identified to calibrate stations or analyze air quality in laboratory environments. Lab mode is intended to be used for applications where an internet connection is unnecessary or difficult to acquire.
In this mode of operation, air quality samples are written to a CSV file with a file name of the form "%m-%d-%Y.csv". These files are stored on the uSD card inserted into the station.
