Thermostat Management Interface (TMI)

Once the physical installation of the thermostat is complete you will perform most of the configuration operations
from the Proliphix Thermostat Management Interface (TMI) on your PC browser. The Proliphix TMI provides a
sophisticated network management capability to control your Proliphix thermostats.
This section covers the browser-based configuration through the TMI. Please review this entire section to
become familiar with the complete operation of the thermostat and all of its innovative features before beginning.

HTML Interface

Now that you have retrieved the IP Address and HTTP port number (from the Network Interconnect chapter),
you can access the initial HTML page of the thermostat by typing in both of these at the URL address line of
your browser. As an example;
http://192.168.111.100:8081
Where 192.168.111.100 is a unique IP address initially assigned via DHCP and 8081 is the default (Proliphix
assigned) Web HTTP port number. After these two fields are entered into the browser and the first TMI page is
displayed, it is recommended that these parameters be fixed "statically" so that this address can be bookmarked
in your browser. It is recommended that the static IP address chosen should be unique and assigned from
outside the DHCP server pool of addresses. See the Network Settings Page for more information on static IP
address assignment.
Most of the HTML pages conform to a standard format which is maintained for both local or remote thermostat
access. A yellow banner at the top of each page identifies the model number, the page title, and the host name
of the thermostat. Below this there are four columns.
The leftmost column is delineated from the remainder columns by a red divider. Browser buttons are included in
this column and allow for direct access to all other HTML pages on the thermostat.
The three remainder columns together comprise a table format which is subdivided by separate features on the
page. Each feature table is organized by rows of functions. Each row is divided from left to right as, field name,
function status (in light blue) and function control (text boxes and drop-down selections).
