NTI E-MICRO-TRH ENVIROMUX Series Micro Environment Monitoring System
INTRODUCTION
The ENVIROMUX® Micro Server Environment Monitoring System (ENVIROMUX) monitors (from a remote location) critical environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, liquid water presence, power, intrusion, and smoke. When a sensor goes out of range of a configurable threshold, the system will notify you via email, web page, network management (SNMP), and/or SMS messages (via external USB 3G modem). The E-MICRO-TRHP features a built-in temperature/humidity sensor, two RJ45 sensor ports for external temperature sensors, two dry contact inputs for the connection of contact-closure sensors and built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE). (Without the PoE, the model is E -MICRO-TRH.)
Installation
- Mount the ENVIROMUX as desired. Mount the ENVIROMUX to the wall or within in a rack. Use hardware appropriate for your mounting method of choice.
- Connect each of the sensors (purchased separately) to the ENVIROMUX. Mount the sensors where they are needed.
- Connect Temperature sensors to the RJ45 ports on the ENVIROMUX.
- Connect contact sensors (i.e. E-GBS-P glass break sensor, E-SDS-PA smoke detection sensor, E-LD water detection sensor and others) to the terminal blocks labeled
- “DIGITAL IN”. Connect each two-wire contact sensor using 16-26 AWG wire.
- Connect the ENVIROMUX to the Ethernet for maximum remote system management using the “Ethernet” port and CAT5/5e/6 patch cable.
- Connect the AC adapter (required for the E-MICRO-TRH model only).
Setup
- Use the Device Discovery Tool (https://www.networktechinc.com/download/d-environment-monitor-micro.html) to locate the ENVIROMUX on the network. Update the IP address, Mask, and Gateway as needed to connect to the local network. Click on Submit to update the ENVIROMUX.
- Type the updated IP address into the browser address bar.
- Log in to the web interface as the administrator- username = root password= nti (letters are case sensitive)
- Configure Network and SMTP server settings (Administration->Network ).
- Set the date and time.
- Configure SNMP settings.
- Add users (Administration->Users->Add New User) and specify email address, contact methods, etc. as needed.
- Temperature and Humidity sensors will be automatically detected. External contact sensors and sensors connected to “DIGITAL IN” must be added manually through the web interface before configuring them.
- Configure sensors and alerts as desired for thresholds, alert notification methods, etc.
Note:
- By default, the E-MICRO has been assigned a static IP address of 192.168.1.24, so you may be able to proceed to step 2, entering this number.
- If you want to immediately change the IP address, mask and gateway settings, use the Device Discovery Tool as described above (and on page 12 of the manual).
- The computer using the Device Discovery Tool and the ENVIROMUX must be connected to the same subnet in order for the Device Discovery Tool to work.
