-# AM2320 sensor monitoring with netdata
-
-Displays a graph of the temperature and humidity from a AM2320 sensor.
-
-## Requirements
- - Adafruit Circuit Python AM2320 library
- - Adafruit AM2320 I2C sensor
- - Python 3 (Adafruit libraries are not Python 2.x compatible)
-
-
-It produces the following charts:
-1. **Temperature**
-2. **Humidity**
-
-## Configuration
-
-Edit the `python.d/am2320.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
-directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
-
-```bash
-cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
-sudo ./edit-config python.d/am2320.conf
-```
-
-Raspberry Pi Instructions:
-
-Hardware install:
-Connect the am2320 to the Raspberry Pi I2C pins
-
-Raspberry Pi 3B/4 Pins:
-
-- Board 3.3V (pin 1) to sensor VIN (pin 1)
-- Board SDA (pin 3) to sensor SDA (pin 2)
-- Board GND (pin 6) to sensor GND (pin 3)
-- Board SCL (pin 5) to sensor SCL (pin 4)
-
-You may also need to add two I2C pullup resistors if your board does not already have them. The Raspberry Pi does have internal pullup resistors but it doesn't hurt to add them anyway. You can use 2.2K - 10K but we will just use 10K. The resistors go from VDD to SCL and SDA each.
-
-Software install:
-- `sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-am2320`
-- edit `/etc/netdata/netdata.conf`
-- find `[plugin:python.d]`
-- add `command options = -ppython3`
-- save the file.
-- restart the netdata service.
-- check the dashboard.
-
-### Troubleshooting
-
-To troubleshoot issues with the `am2320` module, run the `python.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The
-output will give you the output of the data collection job or error messages on why the collector isn't working.
-
-First, navigate to your plugins directory, usually they are located under `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's
-not the case on your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the setting `plugins directory`. Once you're in the
-plugin's directory, switch to the `netdata` user.
-
-```bash
-cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
-sudo su -s /bin/bash netdata
-```
-
-Now you can manually run the `am2320` module in debug mode:
-
-```bash
-./python.d.plugin am2320 debug trace
-```

+# AM2320
+

+<img src="https://netdata.cloud/img/microchip.svg" width="150"/>

+Module: am2320

+
+## Overview
+
+This collector monitors AM2320 sensor metrics about temperature and humidity.
+
+It retrieves temperature and humidity values by contacting an AM2320 sensor over i2c.
+
+This collector is supported on all platforms.
+
+This collector only supports collecting metrics from a single instance of this integration.
+
+
+### Default Behavior
+
+#### Auto-Detection
+
+Assuming prerequisites are met, the collector will try to connect to the sensor via i2c
+
+#### Limits
+
+The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
+
+#### Performance Impact
+
+The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
+
+
+## Metrics
+
+Metrics grouped by *scope*.
+
+The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
+
+
+
+### Per AM2320 instance
+
+These metrics refer to the entire monitored application.
+
+This scope has no labels.
+
+Metrics:
+
+| Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
+|:------|:----------|:----|
+| am2320.temperature | temperature | celsius |
+| am2320.humidity | humidity | percentage |
+
+
+
+## Alerts
+
+There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.
+
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+#### Sensor connection to a Raspberry Pi
+
+Connect the am2320 to the Raspberry Pi I2C pins
+
+Raspberry Pi 3B/4 Pins:
+
+- Board 3.3V (pin 1) to sensor VIN (pin 1)
+- Board SDA (pin 3) to sensor SDA (pin 2)
+- Board GND (pin 6) to sensor GND (pin 3)
+- Board SCL (pin 5) to sensor SCL (pin 4)
+
+You may also need to add two I2C pullup resistors if your board does not already have them. The Raspberry Pi does have internal pullup resistors but it doesn't hurt to add them anyway. You can use 2.2K - 10K but we will just use 10K. The resistors go from VDD to SCL and SDA each.
+
+
+#### Software requirements
+
+Install the Adafruit Circuit Python AM2320 library:
+
+`sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-am2320`
+
+
+
+### Configuration
+
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `python.d/am2320.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config python.d/am2320.conf
+```
+#### Options
+
+There are 2 sections:
+
+* Global variables
+* One or more JOBS that can define multiple different instances to monitor.
+
+The following options can be defined globally: priority, penalty, autodetection_retry, update_every, but can also be defined per JOB to override the global values.
+
+Additionally, the following collapsed table contains all the options that can be configured inside a JOB definition.
+
+Every configuration JOB starts with a `job_name` value which will appear in the dashboard, unless a `name` parameter is specified.
+
+
+<details><summary>Config options</summary>
+
+| Name | Description | Default | Required |
+|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:|
+| update_every | Sets the default data collection frequency. | 5 | False |
+| priority | Controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard. | 60000 | False |
+| autodetection_retry | Sets the job re-check interval in seconds. | 0 | False |
+| penalty | Indicates whether to apply penalty to update_every in case of failures. | yes | False |
+| name | Job name. This value will overwrite the `job_name` value. JOBS with the same name are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and pick the one that works. | | False |
+
+</details>
+
+#### Examples
+
+##### Local sensor
+
+A basic JOB configuration
+
+```yaml
+local_sensor:
+ name: 'Local AM2320'
+
+```
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+To troubleshoot issues with the `am2320` collector, run the `python.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The output
+should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
+
+- Navigate to the `plugins.d` directory, usually at `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's not the case on
+ your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the `plugins` setting under `[directories]`.
+
+ ```bash
+ cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
+ ```
+
+- Switch to the `netdata` user.
+
+ ```bash
+ sudo -u netdata -s
+ ```
+
+- Run the `python.d.plugin` to debug the collector:
+
+ ```bash
+ ./python.d.plugin am2320 debug trace
+ ```
+
+
