Low Battery When the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor detects a low
battery condition, an alert condition is triggered. The STATUS LED will
blink yellow approximately once per minute to indicate a low battery in the
Monitor. Replacing the Monitor batteries (see APPENDIX) will reset the
alert condition. In addition, a text and or email will be sent to a designated
person if you have signed up for the AirFilterSentry Notification Service.

Replacement Monitor housing (see Figure 9). Remove the batteries.
Installation: Insert four (4) Energizer
®
ULTIMATE LITHIUM batteries in
the battery holder of the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor,
observing polarity, and replace the front cover.
Malfunction When the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor detects an
internal malfunction or an operator error, an alert condition is triggered.
The red STATUS LED will illuminate continuously for approximately 20
seconds. In addition, a text and or email will be sent to a designated
person if you have signed up the monitor in the AirFilterSentry
Notification Service. There are two conditions that can cause a
“malfunction”:
1. In the unlikely event an internal malfunction should occur, remove
power from the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor by
removing the batteries, unplugging the optional AC Adapter, or in the
case of 15-24V AC/DC-powered models (“-C”) contacting your HVAC
system electrician to have the power to the Monitor turned off. Wait for a
minute and restore power. If your FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air
Filter Monitor unit is operating with both AC Adapter and batteries
installed, both will need to be removed in order to reset the malfunction.
If this does not reset the malfunction alert, call 888-414-FLOW (3569) for
instructions.
2. If you recently replaced the air filter and “Reset” the FILTERSCAN
WiFi Business Air Filter Monitor, and the monitor detects that the
Calibration / Reset process has not completed properly, a malfunction
alert will occur. To clear the alert, remove power from the
FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor by removing the
batteries, unplugging the optional AC Adapter, or in the case of 15-24V
AC/DC-powered models (“-C”) contacting your HVAC system electrician
to have the power to the Monitor turned off. Wait for a minute and
restore power. If your FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor
unit is operating with both AC Adapter and batteries installed, both will
need to be removed in order to reset the malfunction. Then, insure you
have turned the HVAC system blower OFF, the first step before
replacing your air filter. Depress Reset to restart the calibration process.
Reference the instructions on the monitor cover.
Calibrating When Whenever a new air filter is installed, the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air
Installing a New Air Filter Filter Monitor must be calibrated. Calibration establishes the clogged air
filter detection threshold based upon the condition recorded for a new air
filter. When a new air filter is installed, its condition is recorded and saved
in nonvolatile memory. Reference the instructions on the monitor cover.
1. Turn the HVAC system OFF at the thermostat. Ensure the HVAC
system blower is turned OFF and that no conditions exist during this
