17. Your FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor is now connected to your wireless router, and

has initiated a connection process where the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor and

your wireless router communicate with each other and establish a connection with no further action

needed.

Connect to the AirFilterSentry Notification System Server

1. Upon successful sign up, configuration, installation, power up, and Internet connection, the

FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor will be connected to the cleanalertwifi.com server

through your wireless router and should require no further attention. The Monitor will start sending

status messages to the server on a periodic basis.

2. To test the Internet connection:

a. Although the wireless transmission range should cover your building, it is greatest with minimum

obstructions between the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor and the wireless

router. Any obstructions, such as walls, floors, and ceilings can reduce the range of transmission,

and relocation of the wireless router may be required. Test location to ensure proper operation.

b. Depress the SEND button of the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor once, and

immediately release, to send status to the cleanalertwifi.com server database.

c. Then, login to your AFS account at

www.cleanalertwifi.com to view your monitor’s status.

NOTE: Your FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor status display at the AirFilterSentry

Notification Service is capable of displaying more than 100% clogged. This is possible

since the “100% clogged” point is the recommended point when it is most efficient to service

(replace or clean) the air filter. If you ignore the clog notification and continue to operate

your HVAC system, the air filter will become dirtier. To provide the most efficient air filtration

and HVAC system operation, you should service the air filter as soon as possible after being

notified of a clogged condition.
