1. Depress the WPS button on your router for two to ten seconds until its WiFi LED begins to blink. See
your router user’s manual if you do not know what that button looks like. Timing varies with router
manufacturers.
2. Reference Figure 12 to locate the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor WPS button.
3. Within several seconds (time depends on your specific wireless router), using a nonmetallic
instrument such as a pencil eraser, toothpick, or other non-metallic object, depress the WPS button
just once until you feel a click and immediately release. A series of red, green, and amber WiFi
Status Indicator flashes will occur, and finally go out. If a series of red WiFi Status LED flashes occur
at the end of the flashes, refer to Table 1 WiFi Status Indications for further steps.
4. Your FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor is now connected to your wireless router, and has
initiated a connection process where the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor and your
wireless router communicate with each other and establish a connection with no further action
needed.
