settings, and turning off from both the attic (to observe the fan itself) and the living space (to observe the

Powered AirLock’s doors).

As shown below, there are four buttons on your fan’s control interface:

When the Digital Touch Controller is connected to the fan, and the fan to power, a red LED will illuminate beneath

the Power Indicator shown above. If the Power Indicator is not illuminated, double-check the connections between

the fan and the controller, and between the fan and the power outlet.

Turn on the fan by touching FAN UP or TIMER UP. The Powered AirLock’s doors will open and there will be a 10

second delay before the fan begins to operate. The fan will start at minimum speed. Green LEDs will illuminate to

indicate the speed setting. If the fan was turned on by TIMER UP, the timer will be set to one hour and blue LEDs

will illuminate to indicate the timer setting.

Press or hold FAN UP to increase the speed incrementally until reaching the desired or maximum speed. Press or

hold TIMER UP to increase the time on the timer in one hour increments until the desired time, or the maximum time

of 12 hours, is achieved.

If the fan is already operating at minimum speed, touch FAN DOWN/OFF to turn off the fan; any time remaing

on the timer will be canceled. If the fan is at any higher speed, press or hold FAN DOWN/OFF to incrementally

decrease the speed until reaching the desired speed or turning the fan off.

Press or hold TIMER DOWN/CANCEL to reduce the time on the timer in one hour increments until the desired

time is achieved or the timer is canceled. If the timer is canceled, the fan will remain on at its current speed. If the

timer expires, the fan will turn off.

Whenever the fan is turned off, the Powered AirLock’s doors will close tightly within about 60 seconds.
