NOTE: A new or cleaned air filter should always be installed whenever the
CALIBRATE operation is performed.
Low Battery When the FILTERSCAN WiFi 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.
Battery Access : Remove the front cover from the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter
Replacement Monitor housing. Remove the batteries.
Installation: Insert four (4) Energizer
®
ULTIMATE LITHIUM batteries in
the battery holder of the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor,
observing polarity, and replace the front cover.
Malfunction When the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor detects an internal
malfunction, an alert condition is triggered. The red STATUS LED will
illuminate continuously until the malfunction is corrected. In addition, a text
and or email will be sent* to a designated person if you have signed up for
the AirFilterSentry Notification Service. In the unlikely event this should
occur, remove power from the FILTERSCAN WiFi 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 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.
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.
Install a clean, new air filter into your heating and cooling system.
1. Turn the HVAC system OFF at the thermostat. Ensure the HVAC
system blower is turned OFF and that no conditions exist during this
part of the calibration that would cause air to be moving within the
HVAC ducts, such as opening and closing of doors or windows.
2. Depress the RESET button, holding for two seconds until the STATUS
LED turns Green and a beep is heard.
a. After approximately ten seconds, the STATUS LED will blink
yellow for approximately 20 seconds while the FILTERSCAN WiFi
Air Filter Monitor records the HVAC system’s FAN OFF
condition. When the blinking amber stops, this indicates proper
operation.
i. However, if the STATUS LED blinks red, which means the
unit detects air flowing in the air duct, check to see that the
system blower fan is fully OFF and that no condition described
in #2 above exists. If no such condition exists, start again at
#1. If the error condition persists, call 888-414-FLOW (3569)
for instructions.
