20/40/60 Minute Ventilation and Filtration Timer

  • Ventilation and filtration control fromany location.
  • Works with any RedLINK® 2.0 thermostat.
  • Does not require a ventilator to boost filtration.

Install Battery

  1. Remove the cover.
  2. Insert the CR2450 coin cell battery (included) into the slot at the bottom of the remote. See polarity marking on the remote.
  3. The LED will briefly flash green.
    When battery power is low, the LED will flash red.

Mounting

Mounting the remote is optional.

  1. Remove the front cover from the remote.
  2. Use provided screws and wall anchors to fasten the remote to the wall.
    • lternatively, use double sided tape to fasten the remote to the wall.
  3. Replace the cover on the remote.

Connect

  1. Prepare the thermostat for RedLINK connection (see the thermostat or EIM instructions).
  2. Press and release the CONNECT button on the remote. After a short delay, the LED will glow green for 15 seconds.

LED Operation

During normal operation the LED will be off when the remote is idle. If the LED remains off when a button is pressed then the battery has failed

After a button press the LED will function as follows:

  • Green when a button is pressed.
  • Quickly flashing red when the battery needs to be replaced.
  • Slowly flashing amber when the remote is disconnected from the system.
  • The LED will be off when the remote is idle.

During wireless connection to the system the LED will function as follows:

  • Solid green for 15 seconds: connected to the system.
  • Solid red: the remote did not connect to the system.

Disconnect from RedLINK System

Press and hold the CONNECT button on the remote until the LED glows amber (about 10 seconds) to disconnect from the RedLINK system.

If you replace a thermostat or Equipment Interface Module, disconnect the remote from the old device. Then follow the steps on page 1 to re-connect the remote to the wireless network.

Setting up Ventilation and Filtration Boost at the Thermostat

Ventilation and Filtration Boost
Wire ventilator and choose the type of ventilation in Installer Set Up of the thermostat. Filtration will be boosted with ventilation if the system is set up to run the fan with ventilation

Filtration Boost without a Ventilator
Choose passive ventilation (fan only) for the ventilation type in Installer Set Up of the thermostat. When the remote button is pressed the equipment fan will circulate air through the filter.

Operation

The Wireless Vent and Filter Boost Remote provides onetouch control of the ventilation and filtration systems.

The remote has three buttons: 20, 40, and 60 minutes. The ventilation and filtration can be temporarily boosted for 20,
40, or 60 minutes, depending on the button pressed.

Pressing one of these buttons temporarily boosts the ventilation and filtration for either the time on the button or the current run time at the thermostat, whichever is greater.Vent boost can be cancelled from the thermostat.
