This method take no arguments and returns no values.

States are displayed in HomeKit as "Unknown", "Excellent", "Good", "Fair", // "Inferior" and "Poor". // Note that HomeKit only displays the values of a subset of Characteristics within the tile itself. In the case of an Air Quality Sensor, // only the quality state of the Air Quality is displayed. To see the values of other Characteristics, such as Ozone Density and Nitrogen Dioxide Density, you need to click // on the tile, AND open the settings screen (it would be nicer if HomeKit displayed these values on the control screen instead of making you open the settings screen). // On the setting screen you should see the values of all three of the Characteristics we instantiated: Air Quality, Nitrogen Dioxide Density, and Ozone Density. // Both the Air Quality and Ozone Density should change every 10 seconds. The Nitrogen Dioxide Density should remain steady at the initial value of 700.0, since we // never use setVal() to update this Characteristic. // If you run HomeSpan at a VERBOSITY level of 2 (as specified in the library's Settings.h file), you can see that under the hood HomeSpan is sending Event Notification // messages to all registered controllers every 5 seconds for the Temp Sensor, and every 5 and 10 seconds for the Air Quality Sensor. If you look carefully you'll see that // the Event Notification message for the Air Quality Sensor only include two values - one for the Air Quality state and one for the Ozone Density. HomeSpan is NOT // sending a value for the Nitrogen Dioxide Density Characteristic since it has not been changed with a setVal() function. // FINAL NOTE: The number of decimals HomeKit displays for temperature in the HomeKit app is independent of the step size of the value itself. This seems to be // hardcoded by HomeKit: for Fahrenheit a Temperature Sensor tile shows no decimals and ROUNDS to the nearest whole degree (e.g. 72, 73, 74 degrees); for Celsius // the tile allows for half-degree resolution and ROUNDS accordingly (e.g. 22.7 is displayed as 22.5 and 22.8 is displayed as 23.0).
