Abstract

A fume hood monitor includes a fume hood monitor controller that is configured to display one or more of the fume hood parameters on a display of the fume hood monitor and to communicate with the mobile device. The mobile device includes a mobile device controller that is configured to pair the mobile device with the fume hood monitor. Once paired, the mobile device controller is configured to receive two or more of the fume hood parameters from the fume hood monitor controller, display two or more of the received fume hood parameters on a display of a user interface of the mobile device, and receive a user interaction via the user input device of the mobile device. The user interaction may allow a user to manipulate information that is displayed on the display of the mobile device regarding the fume hood.
