TAKING INTO OPERATION

First, read the entire Technical Manual.
ONLY APPROPRIATELY QUALIFIED ELECTRICIANS MAY CARRY OUT WORK WITH ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. YOU MUST BE ABLE TO TURN OFF THE POWER SUPPLY WITHOUT TOUCHING THE UNIT. Connect the air purifier to the electrical outlet. Ensure that there is nothing obstructing the air outlets / inlets (see figure below how to operate).

MAIN SCREEN
In the upper half of the display there is an air quality indicator. This indicator will show ”fill” or ”empty” depending on the air quality in real time. The higher the air quality, the fuller the indicator. At the same time, the colour of the indicator will change according to the quality.

The higher the quality the colour will change to a light turquoise and the lower the quality the colour will change to a dark purple. These colours correspond to the colours used on the dashboard web page. The change of colour is produced by jumps of 5% in quality, i.e. from 0% to 100% we have 20 defined colours.

Inside the indicator there is a text that indicates the quality rangewe are in:

  • Poor: < 20%
  • Fair: < 40%
  • Average: < 60%
  • Good: < 80%
  • Excellent: > 80%

The text ”Indoor Air Quality” is used as a title and does not change at any time.
The lower half is further divided into 3 sections. From top to bottom:

  1. Environmental values: These are measures of environmental qualities over which the device has no influence. (Humidity / Temperature / CO2 ) The unit is capable of displaying these measurements due to its multiple sensors.
  2. Fan speed selector: It is an action button, if we press it the application takes us to the fan speed/operation mode selection screen.
  3. Button panel: This button panel has 3 buttons, from left to right:
    • Schedule: when pressed, the application takes us to the schedule display/renewal screen.
    • Shutdown: when pressed, the application takes us to the shutdown/reset screen.
    • Settings: when pressed, the application takes you to the device settings screen.

FAN SPEED/MODE SELECTION
This screen is used to select the speed/mode in which our fan operates. It can be called from the main screen to set the current speed/mode or from the calendar edition to  select the programmed speed/mode.

The screen shows the following action buttons:

  • Automatic: By pressing this button we indicate the system to manage the fan speed by itself, that is, depending on the air quality.
  • From 6 to 1: We indicate to the system that the speed management will be manual and the level at which we want the fan to be set. Speed 6 is highly recomended for short quick air cleaning situations.
  • Off: We indicate to the application to pay the fan.

TIMETABLE
Add timetable
When we click on the timetable button and we have not yet defineda timetable, the application displays the following screen:

This screen shows a text warning us that the team has not yet defined a timetable and offers us an action button to add a new one. By pressing this button, the application will take us to the timetable editing screen.

EDITING TIMETABLE/SCHEDULE
In this screen we can configure all the aspects related to the timetable, from top to bottom:

  • Start time and end time. These selectors allow us to choose the time at which the programmed operation of the equipment starts and ends. To select a time, simply press the selector and drag your finger up or down until the desired time is displayed.
  • Repeat. This is an action button that takes us to the screen for selecting the days on which our programmed operation will take place.
  • Fan speed. This is an action button that will take us to the speed/ operation mode selection screen.
  • Save schedule. When we have finished configuring the 3 options of our timetable, we can click on this button to save them. If any of the options are not configured, the button will be disabled, this is to avoid saving a timetable without the necessary configurations for its operation.

VIEW/EDIT/DELETE TIMETABLE
When we click on the timetable button and we have already defined a timetable, the application will show us the information about it and the possibility of editing it through the following screen.
The first section shows the parameters of the timetable configured in text mode: start/end times, days of the week when the timetable is active and speed/mode.

Next, the ”Edit timetable” button is displayed, which takes us to the Edit timetable screen so that we can modify the parameters of the timetable we have already set.
Finally, the ”Delete timetable” button is displayed, which takes us to the timetable deletion confirmation screen.

CONFIRMATION OF DELETION
This screen shows 2 action buttons: cancel or confirm the deletion operation.

ADJUSTMENTS
This screen is a menu in which we can choose which parameter /value we want to consult or modify. By pressing the corresponding button the application will take us to the chosen screen.

The possible options are:

  • IAQ panel
  • Sensor warnings
  • Wireless network
  • Language
  • Time zone
  • Information

IAQ PANEL
This page shows a URL and an analogous QR corresponding to the web of the equipment’s information panel. This panel is unique for each unit and will show information about the unit and the environment where it is located.

SENSOR WARNINGS
This screen shows a series of buttons corresponding to each of the sensors of the equipment. The sensors are:

  • Particulate Matter
  • VOC sensor
  • CO2 sensor
  • Fan status sensor

These buttons are inactive by default. In the event that the application detects a problem with any of them, it will show it by colouring the corresponding icon in red and will enable the button to be pressed. If pressed, the application will take us to the specific instructions screen for each sensor.

SENSOR WARNINGS (INSTRUCTIONS)
This screen shows a QR code corresponding to an URL of a Camfil website which will provide specific instructions to the user. It also offers the possibility to reset the warning. By resetting the warning we are forcing the system to remove the sensor from the alarm state. This is to verify that the warning is caused by a persistent problem and not a temporary problem. In case the problem is real and persistent the sensor alarm state will occur again.

WIRELESS NETWORK
This screen will show a list of available wireless networks.
When booting for the first time, the system does not have any wifi configuration. During the boot it searches for all available networks, this first search is kept for 10 minutes after the boot. After this time the equipment will perform a new search every time we enter this screen.
The result of this network search will be displayed on this screen sorted by signal strength. Each network will be expressed by means of a button with different functionalities.

To configure a network (enter the key), click on the icon located to the right of each button (network). When you click on it, the application will take you to the password entry screen and when you return from this screen, a loading icon will appear on the corresponding button indicating that it is trying to connect with the data entered.

If it connects, the icon to the left of the button will change to a green background indicating that we are connected to that network. Otherwise, the equipment will continue trying to reconnect until we indicate it to connect to another network or we modify the connection data.
The device is capable of storing up to 5 known networks.
Whenever it detects a known network it will try to connect to it in order of signal strength, i.e. it will try to connect first to the network with the strongest signal strength.

To select a network to connect to, simply click on the corresponding button and the equipment will try to connect to it with the password it has configured. If no password is configured, it will behave as if we had clicked on the arrow icon on the corresponding button, i.e. it will send us to the password entry screen.
