Installation Guide

d. A strong WiFi signal (at least two bars) from the router where you want to install the

FILTERSCAN WiFi monitor.

2. See Figure 12 to locate the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor WPS button.

3. Depress and hold the WPS button until the WiFi Status Indicator blinks green then fast red. This

usually takes about 5 seconds, but may take up to 30 seconds. Release the button as soon as the

fast RED is seen and wait until the WiFi Status Indicator blinks amber.

4. Using your iPhone or iPad, go to the Settings app and connect to the FILTERSCAN network. It may

take a few minutes for the FILTERSCAN network to appear.

5. Once the iPhone or iPad is connected to the FILTERSCAN network, open a web browser.

6. Enter the IP address 192.168.1.1 in the URL box

7. Wait for the page to update and show the available networks. This may take several minutes. You are

looking for the SSID of your router. If the expected network is not listed, press the Refresh button

(you may need to do this several times). If it still does not appear, check that the router is on, has an

Internet connection, and the SSID does not contain a $ character.

8. Enter your router’s password (see acceptable Special Character chart above) and press the Join

Network button. If the pairing was successful, the amber light on the FILTERSCAN unit will flash

quickly for a few seconds and then go out. If it is still flashing slowly, then it did not pair with the

router. Check to insure that the password does not contain any of the special characters above.

9. If the pairing fails, check that you are using the correct password: On your iPhone, open up Settings

and Select WiFi. Connect the phone to the router. Then press the “information” icon to the right of the

router’s SSID (and “i” inside a circle). On the new page select “Forget this Network”. This will sever

your connection and send you back to the WiFi page. Now select the router SSID. You will be asked

to type in the password. If it is correct, you will connect. Now go back to repeat the above instructions

starting at Step 4. If this fails, call the CleanAlert helpline: 888-414-3569, extension “2”.
