Hey - I've found 3 issues

Please address the comments from this code review:
## Individual Comments
### Comment 1
<location path="lib/providers/dust_sensor_state_provider.dart" line_range="119-120" />
<code_context>
+ _isReading = true;
+ _startedAt = DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch / 1000;
+ notifyListeners();
+ await sampleOnce();
+ _readTimer = Timer.periodic(updatePeriod, (_) => sampleOnce());
+ }
+
</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**issue (bug_risk):** `start()` schedules a periodic timer after `sampleOnce()` returns even when the initial read failed or `stop()` was called while that read was in flight. The timer then continues invoking `sampleOnce()` while `_isReading` is false, so a stopped or failed instrument keeps polling the sensor.
**Triggers:** When the initial voltage read fails, or when Stop is pressed before the first read completes.
**Suggested fix:** Only create the timer if `_isReading` is still true and the initial sample completed successfully; alternatively cancel any timer as part of the failure path after scheduling.
```suggestion
await sampleOnce();
if (_isReading) {
_readTimer = Timer.periodic(updatePeriod, (_) => sampleOnce());
}
```
</issue_to_address>
### Comment 2
<location path="lib/providers/dust_sensor_state_provider.dart" line_range="141" />
<code_context>
+
+ @visibleForTesting
+ Future<void> sampleOnce() async {
+ if (_isBusy || !isConnected) return;
+ _isBusy = true;
+ try {
+ final voltage = await _source.readVoltage();
</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**issue (broader_impact):** When the PSLab disconnects after sampling has started, `sampleOnce()` returns without setting `DustSensorError.notConnected` or stopping the provider. The UI remains in the `Reading CH1` state indefinitely while the timer repeatedly retries and silently discards every sample.
**Triggers:** When the PSLab connection drops during an active measurement.
**Suggested fix:** Set `_error` to `DustSensorError.notConnected`, stop the timer, and notify listeners when the connection check fails during an active read.
```suggestion
if (_isBusy) return;
if (!isConnected) {
_error = DustSensorError.notConnected;
stop();
return;
}
```
</issue_to_address>
### Comment 3
<location path="lib/view/dust_sensor_screen.dart" line_range="30" />
<code_context>
+ void initState() {
+ super.initState();
+ _provider = widget.provider ?? DustSensorStateProvider();
+ WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((_) => _provider.initialize());
+ }
+
</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**issue (bug_risk):** The post-frame callback invokes `_provider.initialize()` without checking whether the screen is still mounted. If the route is removed before the callback runs, `dispose()` disposes the provider first and the callback then performs initialization and notification on the disposed provider.
**Triggers:** When the user navigates away before the first post-frame callback executes.
**Suggested fix:** Guard the callback with `if (!mounted) return;` before calling `_provider.initialize()`.
```suggestion
WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((_) {
if (!mounted) return;
_provider.initialize();
});
```

Review comments at @lib/providers/dust_sensor_state_provider.dart:
- Around line 119-122: Add a _disposed flag to the provider and guard start()
and sampleOnce() against work resuming after disposal: check the flag after
awaited reads and before starting the periodic timer or notifying listeners. In
dispose(), set the flag, clear _isReading, cancel _readTimer, and then call the
superclass implementation.
- Line 27: Update readVoltage so it measures the DSM-501A active-low PWM over a
defined time window, preferably returning the low-pulse ratio, rather than
taking one phase-dependent voltage read. Ensure sampleOnce stores this
window-based measurement in the chart and voltage statistics.
- Around line 110-119: Update start() in the DustSensorStateProvider to preserve
the elapsed-time origin when restarting: offset _startedAt by the last recorded
value in _times when history exists, while keeping the current-time origin when
_times is empty. Leave the existing sample and notification flow unchanged.

Nice job, I saw that in the old project it use CH1 to communicate, did you test with a sensor? Our problem is that we have an other sensor that use UART protocol to communicate |
|
@ctrlVnt Thanks for checking. I have not tested this with a physical dust sensor yet; the current implementation follows the legacy Java app’s acquisition path, which calls This PR is therefore currently scoped to the legacy CH1 workflow. A UART dust sensor would need a different implementation (UART configuration, packet framing/checksum, model-specific PM2.5/PM10 conversion, and hardware testing). There is older experimental Flutter code in the repository history for an SDS011-style 10-byte UART frame, but I do not want to assume that is the sensor you mean. Could you please share the exact UART sensor model and, if available, its protocol/datasheet? Once confirmed, I can adapt the implementation and update the title, guide, and tests so the PR accurately represents the supported hardware. |

@thisisanubhav you can check this: #3245 |
@ctrlVnt , I'll go through this and get back by EOD, Thanks! |

I have ordered a DSM-501A for testing with the real hardware. |

Summary
Protocol implementation
PR #3245 was used as the sensor-model and protocol reference following maintainer guidance. This implementation targets the SDS011 UART protocol and corrects the transport assumptions that blocked that draft:
SEND_BYTEcommand without a length prefixRelevant concepts and prior investigation are credited to #3245. No code was copied verbatim from that PR.
Hardware and wiring
Physical validation with an SDS011 and PSLab UART2 is still required before merge.
Screenshot
The screenshot uses an injected deterministic data source to demonstrate the UI. It is not presented as a physical sensor reading.
Testing
flutter analyzeflutter testsuiteReview requested from @marcnause, @ctrlVnt, and @rahul31124.
Closes #2988
Summary by Sourcery
Add end-to-end SDS011 dust sensor support to the PSLab app, from UART2 transport and protocol parsing through live measurement visualization and user guidance.
