Hello,

Firstly, I would like to thank you for working on GMC devices.

I am logging data from a GMC-320S via serial console and I fetch CPM without problem. Data is logged to MQTT and this works like a charm.

Now I would like to calculate ACPM and uSv/h before submitting to GMC World Map. How to calculate ACPM (how many CPM values need to be taken into account) and how to convert CPM to uSv/h?

Kind regards,
serial_reset

Finally I took one day history for ACPM calculation which seams enough. Thanks.

As I am running Home Assistant I receive a CPM every minute. So I only need to calculte the ACPM sum divided by the number of minutes recorded (which is my number of records).

All time that it is on. ACPM is calculated every second.
acpm = total_count/(elapsed_second_total/60.0);

Thank you for the answer. How many records are taken into account by the GMC-320 device?

You can decide how many records do you want for ACPM.

Okay, I reply to myself, this is calculated to be 154 CPM for 1 uSv/hr for GMC-320/GMC-320S, right? How many records need to be taken into account for ACPM?
