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).
Note: If a VPN is used to access your thermostats remotely, they will appear to reside on your "local"
network. You will therefore not need to control them through the Proliphix Remote Management Service via
the Proliphix web site. However, email notification due to alarm conditions will NOT be available with VPN
use.
A more complete explanation for remotely managing a Network Thermostat is available in both the Proliphix
Remote Management Setup Guide and the Proliphix Remote Management User Guide. A short hand
procedure to establish the identity of the thermostat for Remote Management capability is described below.
Using the TMI locally, take the following actions;
1. Access the General Settings Page through the TMI.
2. Enter a meaningful Zone Name.
3. Press Submit.
4. Access the Network Settings Page through the TMI.
5. Set the IP Address Method to Static.
6. Select a unique IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway address and HTTP port number.
7. Press Submit.
8. Access the Remote Access Page through the TMI.
9. Enter a meaningful Site Name (could be the name or location of the property).
10. Press Submit.
You must consult the Proliphix Remote Management Setup Guide to complete the configuration of your
thermostat for Remote Management. After completing the remote Management Setup, the thermostat will
attempt to communicate with the Proliphix Web Site and identify itself as an authorized thermostat.
Reset Actuation
The Proliphix Network Thermostats are sophisticated network enabled electronic devices. The technology
used in the NT10e or NT20e can automatically retrieve an Internet address from the network router, serve
easy-to-use HTML pages to any web browser, provide secure management capability from anywhere in the
Internet as well as perform advanced thermostat functions. This capability is provided by highly integrated
processor technology.
Although it is highly unlikely that the Proliphix Network Thermostats will be unable to perform correctly
against unsolicited and unwanted network activity, at some time a reset may be necessary to bring the
Network Thermostat back into proper operation. If this is necessary, there are two types of resets which can
be performed on the thermostat. Either type should only be initiated after instruction from a qualified
Proliphix customer support representative. See Customer Assistance section at the end of this guide.
