You have purchased the most advanced and technically sophisticated thermostat available today. The NT10e and NT20e are powered by Proliphix Network Power and are identical in features with one exception; the NT20e supports two remote thermal sensors and the NT10e does not support external thermal sensors.
4. Press the “Submit” button. Remote Management The Basic Series of Proliphix Network Thermostats can be managed with a web browser on a local area network (LAN) or remotely though the Internet after proper authentication at the Proliphix web site (www.proliphix.com).
1. Remove the thermostat cover from the base which attached to the wall. (See NT10e and NT20e Installation Guide) 2. Attach top of cover to top of base as a hinge. (See NT10e and NT20e Installation Guide) 3. Depress middle button of thermostat while closing the cover into the base.
Page 8 of 54 Thermostat Device Interface The Proliphix thermostat features a convenient method of manually modifying certain parameters directly at the thermostat. The thermostat’s front panel includes up and down arrows and several buttons located at the bottom of the LCD to select the desired configuration settings. The following sections detail the operation of the thermostat from the thermostat’s buttons and LCD screens.
The content displayed on the LCD screens is organized into both Primary and Secondary Screens. There are two Primary Screens on the NT10e and three Primary Screens on the NT20e thermostats. Both Primary and Secondary Screens are defined below and in the following sections.
