An email will be sent to the current owner of the monitor notifying
them of the request. They, must either accept or decline the request,
within the email.
If accepted, the monitor’s data is moved to the new owner’s
(requester’s) AFS account. Personalized information is changed in
that monitor's record (Device Name, Location, text message format,
etc.). New generic information is inserted to prevent the new owner
from seeing the prior owner’s information.
If declined, no changes are made to monitor ownership.
The new owner to receive the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter
Monitor will receive an email notification of the current owner’s action.
If the transfer was accepted, the requesting (new) owner will see the
monitor in their monitor list when they go into the Edit Monitor page.
If the transfer was declined, the monitor will remain in the current
owner’s account.
Wireless Router What should I do if I am unable to connect my monitor to my wireless
router?
1. If you are pairing your monitor with your router using WPS, make
sure that WPS is enabled on the router by trying to connect
another wireless device to the router using WPS (some routers
have this function disabled), or contact your router supplier.
2. If you are using manual pairing, make sure that you have the
correct password.
3. Make sure you monitor is within range of your wireless router. If
not, you may have to relocate your router.
4. Determine your routers wireless security network type.
Supported network types are:
 WEP128
 WPA-PSK (TKIP)
 WPA2-PSK (AES)
 WPA-PSK mixed mode (some access points, not all are
supported)
To do this, you will need to consult your routers manual. If your
routers wireless security has been set to any other method, you
will need to change it to one of the above, preferably WPA-PSK
(TKIP) or WPA2-PSK (AES).
5. Make sure network SSID Name and password conform to the
Special Character Permissions in Network Name (SSID) &
Password chart in the Connecting to a Wireless Router
Without a WPS Button section.
How far can the FILTERSCAN WiFi Home Air Filter Monitor be
mounted from the wireless router?
The range of the WiFi signal is similar to the range of your wireless
devices (laptop, smartphone, etc.). However, obstacles such as walls
between the Router and Monitor could decrease the effective range of
the device.
