Connect to a Wireless Router with a WPS Button
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. (NOTE: During a software update, amber
flashes will occur for about two minutes before going out. DO NOT TAKE ANY ACTION DURING
THIS TIME!) If a series of RED WiFi Status LED flashes occur at the end of the flashes, this means
the monitor was unable to connect with the AirFilterSentry Notification server. The number of flashes
indicates the reason for the failure to connect. Refer to Table 1 WiFi Trouble-shooting Guide
below 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.
NOTE: If you will be using a corporate network to connect the monitor to the Internet, contact your
network administrator prior to enabling the web server of CleanAlert. Company policy may
prohibit the use of web servers for security reasons. CleanAlert is not responsible for the
use of, nor makes any claims as to the security of the web server interface over your
network. The use of the web server is the responsibility of the end user.
5. Go to “Connect to the AirFilterSentry Notification System Server” on page 17.
