  Please make sure arduino A0 pin represents the analog input configured on #define pin

  Note: high concentration MQ-131 sensor.

 This example code is in the public domain.

//Include the library
#include <MQUnifiedsensor.h>

//Definitions
#define placa "Arduino UNO"
#define Voltage_Resolution 5
#define pin A0 //Analog input 0 of your arduino
#define type "MQ-131" //MQ131
#define ADC_Bit_Resolution 10 // For arduino UNO/MEGA/NANO
#define RatioMQ131CleanAir 15 //RS / R0 = 15 ppm
//#define calibration_button 13 //Pin to calibrate your sensor

//Declare Sensor
MQUnifiedsensor MQ131(placa, Voltage_Resolution, ADC_Bit_Resolution, pin, type);

void setup() {
  //Init the serial port communication - to debug the library
  Serial.begin(9600); //Init serial port

  //Set math model to calculate the PPM concentration and the value of constants
  MQ131.setRegressionMethod(1); //_PPM =  a*ratio^b
  MQ131.setA(23.943); MQ131.setB(-1.11); // Configure the equation to to calculate O3 concentration

  // Explanation: 
   // In this routine the sensor will measure the resistance of the sensor supposedly before being pre-heated
  // and on clean air (Calibration conditions), setting up R0 value.
  // We recomend executing this routine only on setup in laboratory conditions.
  // This routine does not need to be executed on each restart, you can load your R0 value from eeprom.
