on the system’s pressure when one or two registers are changed and
therefore the less effect on when the clog alert will occur. Regular
changes to system registers could make the performance
unpredictable.
What if my FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor stops sending
status data? What if the Status report at my AirFilterSentry Notification
Service account does not display a recent update Date?
There could be many causes for data to not reach the AFS server.
1. First, depress the SEND button on the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air
Filter Monitor front panel. Wait for one minute then recheck the
AFS Status Display for a current update time and date.
2. Next, check the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor
power. Insure batteries or power to the Monitor is good (Status
LED blinks green approximately once per minute).
3. Turn power off to the FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor
power for one minute. Then turn power back on.
4. Turn power off to your wireless router for one minute. Then turn
power back on.
5. View your AirFilterSentry Notification Service subscription as
it may have expired.
If none of the above result in updated status data, please review
Table 1 WiFi Status indications above for various WiFi Status LED
conditions.
Where should I set the Service Filter knob?
At the recommended setting in the center of travel. This equates to
the doubling of the initial differential pressure to cause a clog alert.
If you want to waste energy, or think your filter is not dirty enough
when a clog alert occurs at the Recommended setting, you may turn
the Service Filter knob CCW toward “Less Often”. This increases the
differential pressure needed to cause a clog alert. Results? A more
dirty filter, more energy usage, and decreased IAQ.
If you want to save more energy at the expense of higher air filter
costs, or think your filter is too dirty when a clog alert occurs at the
Recommended setting, you may turn the Service Filter knob CW
toward “More Often. This decreases the differential pressure needed
to cause a clog alert. Results? A cleaner filter, higher air filter costs,
less energy usage, and increased IAQ.
Overall, the Service Filter knob should be to set it at the
Recommended setting for the best balance between wasted energy
and higher air filter costs.
Why am I not seeing the FILTERSCAN on the list of connected devices
on my router?
The FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor connects to your wireless
router for about two seconds approximately every seven hours. The
rest of the time, the FILTERSCANs WiFi transmitter is turned off to
conserve energy. So, you would have to be viewing your “connected
devices” exactly during the two-second time period to “see” the
FILTERSCAN on the list of connected devices. Nearly impossible.
