@kreyren IKEA uses the PM1006 Sensor, which is a cheaper version of PM1006K.

On PM1006K we get more data fields: PM 1.0, PM 10.

These fields are not available on PM1006, hence they are unused.

@lupyuen So there are empty bytes here used as a separator where all 20 bytes following will have header -> spacer -> data -> spacer -> checksum?

or are those empty data something else?

@kreyren That's the UART Output from the IKEA Sensor, we don't need the UART Input. We will see the PM 2.5 data when we dump the UART Output as hex:
