Fan(s) Turned ON Through Bin-Sense But Are Not Running

Fan ON/OFF commands are processed when a Master unit calls in which is approximately every 68 minutes.

  • Fan(s) connected to Master units may take up to 2 call-ins (approximately 2.5 hours) to turn on/off
  • Fan(s) connected to bins with Remote units may take up to 3 call ins (approximatley 3.5 hours) to turn on/off

If fan(s) are not turning on at all, physical troubleshooting will be required to identify the cause.
