DO NOT INSTALL the thermostat until you have the LAN network connection
information, including the Router's IP address, User Name and Password.
STEP 1: GET YOUR ETHERNET NETWORK INFORMATION
Confirm your LAN network router information. If you don't already know the DHCP range of your DHCP server on your
router, you'll need to log into your router and retrieve that information (which means you'll need the router login
information also!). Enter the IP address of your router in the address bar of your browser and log in. The DHCP range will be
listed in the DHCP settings area.
STEP 2: DOWNLOAD THE NetX™ DEVICE EXPLORER TOOL
The NetX™ Device Explorer tool can be downloaded here for both PC and Mac

STEP 3: INSTALL THE ETHERNET THERMOSTAT BACKPLATE
A. Turn off the power to the HVAC unit and then follow the directions included with
the thermostat for detailed instructions. Make sure the wires are connected to
the correct terminals. In addition to the thermostat wires, there are three (3)
wires from the Ethernet backplate. Connect the RED wire to the R terminal
(along with the Red wire in the thermostat cable), the BLACK wire to the 24(c)
terminal (along with the common wire in the thermostat cable), and the WHITE
wire to the X1 terminal. These wires are shipped in the proper locations and are
noted here for completeness.
B. After installing the thermostat cable, study the thermostat installation pages and
set the DIP switches on the back of the thermostat to the desired settings. Some
DIP switch settings are required for proper HVAC equipment operation and
others are features that may be engaged, as desired.
After setting the DIP switches, set the thermostat aside. Do NOT install the
thermostat on the backplate.
C. Turn on the power for the HVAC equipment. When power is applied, the Green
LED will be off (indicating the thermostat backplate is not connected to your
LAN), and the Red LED will be on steady (indicating the thermostat backplate is
not connected to the thermostat).
DO NOT INSTALL THE THERMOSTAT ON THE ETHERNET BACKPLATE YET!

- Page 3 ONNECT OMMUNICATIONS For added convenience, go to the Basic Configuration page of the NetX™ thermostat and change the thermostat name to something easier to remember than the default name. If you have multiple thermostats on your network, change the name of each of the thermostats to something meaningful.
- Page 4 To update the location to the ‘Site Name’ you entered, simply expand each thermostat (click the ‘+’ to the left of the thermostat name), then navigate to the Basic Configuration page under the thermostat. NetX™ CloudConnect™ will then record the site name. Follow this same process for each of your thermostats, and then log out and log in again. When you log in again, the Site Name will be seen for the location.
