Setup fanSync DC for the first time
Fanimation oers several fantastic ceiling fans that utilize DC motors. DC motors use less electricity and all of our DC fans
can reverse without needing any additional hardware. DC ceiling fans aren’t nearly as easy to retrofit with new receivers, so
we created fanSync DC which doesn’t require a new receiver to give you the ability to control your fan with a smartphone!
Setting up fanSync DC is similar to connecting a remote to your fan, with only a few extra steps which are detailed below:
1. Locate the fanSync icon on your iDevice and tap it.
fanSync application will launch and load the fans list. Your fanSync DC adapter must be plugged
into the wall in order to appear in this list.
TIP: For the best results, the fanSync DC adapter should be plugged into an outlet that is within the distance you would
normally use a remote for your fan.
2. If this is the first time setting up fanSync DC, it will appear in the list with the label tap to
setup. Tap the button to set-up the device.
fanSync will navigate to the edit fan screen.
3. In the fan name field, enter the name you wish to give to your fan. ie. bedroom, kitchen,
kids room, etc.
When you are finished typing, you can hide the keyboard. Tapping another selection will also
cause the keyboard to hide automatically. Next you will need to answer a series of yes or no
questions. No is the default answer.
4. If your fan has a light, tap yes.
The yes option will become highlighted with blue to indicate your selection; the next question
will become enabled as well. If you tapped no you can skip to step number 7.
5. If your ceiling fan’s light is currently using dimmable bulbs, tap yes.
The yes option will become highlighted blue to indicate your selection.
WARNING: If your bulb is not dimmable and you enable this feature, dimming your bulb could cause it to malfunction.
6. Tap Save.
Your settings will be saved and fanSync will navigate you back to the fans list screen.
7. Now that you have configured fanSync DC, you must pair it with your fan. To do this,
you must turn o power to the fan. Do this by flipping the wall switch or if you have wall
controls, move the on/o slider to the o position.
8. When you are sure power is o to the fan, turn the power back on.
Your fan will go into learning mode for 30 seconds once it is powered back on.
