Configure your Smartphone or any other device to connect to the Wi-Fi
network generated by the router that has been connected to the Internet
Module NEXHO-NT. This step is vital in this process. Do not forget to
connect yourself to the Wi-Fi network generated by the router when you are
doing the initial installation. If you don’t do this, the application wont connect
to the Internet Module.
Log on the NEXHO application. Make sure that any other device connected
to the Wi-Fi network generated by your router does not have the NEXHO
application open. If this is the case please close the NEXHO application on
this second device.
Start the synchronization with the Internet Module. Your terminal screen
will remain on waiting mode (if when turning on the application the Initial
Installation message does not appear, please
reset the application following the steps described in section “HOW TO
RESET THE NEXHO APPLICATION IN MY TERMINAL?” in this manual.
Using a small screw driver or any other alternative tool, push the “push
button switch” in the back of the Internet Module NEXHO-NT. After doing
so, a message will show in your device screen indicating the status of the
synchronization of your mobile device with the Internet Module NEXHO-NT.
When the synchronization progress bar finishes, the module NEXHO-NT will
be ready to start with the configuration of your installation with the NEXHO
product range.
It is possible that in some of the mobile devices, when starting up the
NEXHO application, it is not necessary to push the installation “push button
switch” (mainly some devices working with Android). If you observe that
when pressing the switch the application does not connect itself, wait for a
few seconds. More than likely synchronization will take place automatically.

7
Activate the PUSH notifications mode on your device. You
will then be able to receive messages that will inform you
about new actualizations of the application, apart from
allowing you to use the security alerts that the NEXHO
system has to offer. In order to activate PUSH notifications
select the configuration menu from the initial screen of
NEXHOs application in your mobile device or TABLET. In
some versions of this application this menu will appear in
as an icon with the shape of a tool at the top left part of
the screen. If this icon does not appear, press the “Menu”
button of your terminal. In the submenu select
“Configuration”. If you haven´t deactivated the password
request, this will be by default “nexho”. Push notifications

The NEXHO system needs an start up installation in order
to link the application in the device with the Internet Module
NEXHO-NT. Moreover, the NEXHO application protects,
with a password all the menus related with security and
configuration
Nevertheless it is important to protect the wifi access to
your router with a password if you haven’t done it
previously. This way you will double protect the system
against external connections to your local network within
your NEXHO system or any other devices and PCS in your
house. Please check your routers instructions manual to
obtain more information about wifi password
confi
g
urations.

connect yourself to the Wi-Fi network generated by the router when you are
doing the initial installation. If you don’t do this, the application wont connect
to the Internet Module.
Log on your NEXHO application. Make sure that any other device connected
to the Wi-Fi network generated by your router does not have open the
NEXHO application. If this is the case please close the NEXHO application
on this second device, including the device where the first installation was
made.
Start the synchronization at the Internet Module. Your terminal screen will
stay on waiting mode. Using a small screw driver or any other alternative
tool, push the “push button switch” in the back of the Internet Module
NEXHO-NT. After doing so, a message will show in your device screen
indicating the status of the synchronization of your mobile device with the
Internet Module NEXHO-NT. When the synchronizations progress bar
finishes, the module NEXHO-NT will be ready to start with the configuration
of your installation with the NEXHO product range.
It is possible that in some of the mobile devices, when starting up the
NEXHO application, it is not necessary to press the installation “push
button switch” (mainly some devices working with Android). If you observe
that when pressing the switch the application does not connect itself, wait
for a few seconds. More than likely synchronization will take place
automatically.
As you will be able to see, the new installation does not have the names of
the zones or scenes originally configured in the first device. Even though you
can edit them manually (please check the corresponding sections of this
manual), NEXHO application will allow you to send the original names used
during the first installation to future installations.
In order to complete this process please take the following steps:
• Open both applications (the original device where the first
installation took place and the new device). Make sure both devices
are connected to the same WI-FI network generated by your
installations router (the Internet Module NEXHO-NT must be
connected to this router).

“Password” menu where you can change/deactivate the
password.


12
In order to access to some of the menus within NEXHOs application it is
necessary to introduce a password. The password for configuration will be
by default, “nexho”.
If you want to deactivate the password request of this application, enter the
configuration of the opening screen of NEXHOs application. In some
versions of this application this menu will appear as an icon with the shape
of a tool at the top left part of the screen. If this icon does not appear,
press the “Menu” button of your terminal. In the submenu select
“Configuration”. If you haven’t deactivated the password request button, this
will be by default “nexho”.
Now press the password button from the menu and deactivate the options
you want from the password request menu.
Once you have configured all the system from the local network generated
by the router, you will then be able to configure your system in order to
control it from outside your house from the internet.
The first thing we will need is to have internet access from this router. You
will also need to have internet access from the device where you have
downloaded the NEXHO application when connecting to your system.

13
Moreover you will need to configure your router so the NEXHO application is
allowed to receive data from outside your local network. To make this
possible you will need to configure a “Port forwarding” in your installation
router.
From a computer connected with a cable to the router, access your routers
configuration menu. This is possible by inserting the routers direction in
your browsers navigation menu (Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Firefox, Safari,
etc..) Routers use as their usual addresses http://192.168.1.1. or
http://192.168.2.1. Nevertheless, this address is often indicated in a label
placed under the router. If you cannot access the router please check your
routers instructions manual to access its configuration.
A user name and password is usually requested to access this menu.
Please check under your router or in your routers instruction manual to find
them.
Once you have accessed the configuration menu in your router, look for a
menu named “PORT FORWARDING” or “FORWARDING” or “VIRTUAL
SERVERS” or “NAT”, or “APPLICATIONS AND GAMES”, or “GAMIN”. This
will depend on the make and model of your router.
Once in that menu please configure the following data:
• Name: Use name you want. You can use the word “nexho” if you
want to remember this configuration.
• Ports: You may be asked for just one port or for “start” and
“finish” ports. In both cases please introduce the port “6653”.
• Protocol. Usually you will be able to choose between “TCP” and
“UDP” or “Both”. Please mark “UDP” or “Both”.
• IP Destination: It is usually the same as the routers address
excepting the last number which must be changed to 246. For
example, if your router has as an address 192.168.1.1 in the IP
Destination you must introduce 192.168.1.246
• Mark the cell “Activate” if its visible and save the changes to
finish your router configuration.
Hereafter you can see some of the examples of the configuration we have
carried out on some commercial routers.

15
The configuration of the router is now finished.

16
If you´ve had problems in this section, check your routers instructions
manual or look for information in the internet about the make and model you
own, in order to complete this process.
Once you have configured your router you still have to do one final
configuration in your NEXHO APPLICATION (the one installed in your
device). In some versions of this application this menu will appear as an
icon in the shape of a tool at the top left part of the screen. If this icon does
not appear, press the “Menu” button of your terminal. In the submenu
select “Configuration”. If you haven’t deactivated the password request
button, this will be by default “nexho”. Now press the “Communications”
button and activate the option “Send data to an external server”
Please keep in mind that it can take a few minutes to finalize this
configuration while all the installation data is being configured in the
external server
In order to reset the Internet Module NEXHO-NT, take the following steps:
Disconnect the network cable RJ45 that connects your installation routers
to Internet module
Press the switch button at the back of the Internet Module NEXHO-NT
