Niko 550-00003 Manual page 23

Internet connection specifications
The connected controller is connected to the resident's home network via the WAN port. An IP address will be assigned
to the connected controller by the network router. The controller communicates via this connection with the Niko Home
Control programming software (to make additions or changes to the installation). A wireless device such as a smartphone
or tablet can communicate with the installation and control it as long as the installation has an active internet connection
and was registered at mynikohomecontrol.niko.eu.
This port is a DHCP client and will therefore not assign IP addresses to other IP devices.
The router settings needed to establish this connection, correspond with the standard settings of new WiFi router:
• for DNS access outgoing port 53 must be opened
• for data traffic outgoing ports 80, 443 and 22 must be opened
• for (S)NTP outgoing port 123 must be opened.
Register the installation
Have the MAC address and serial number (SN) of the connected controller ready (this data is printed on the controller and
can also be found on the included label). Surf to https://mynikohomecontrol.niko.eu and register your installation using this
MAC address and serial number. Enter the data of the customer or ask him to fill it out.
The installation can now be operated with a smartphone and/or tablet and is now also available for upgrades and
interventions from Niko customer service.
