INSTALLATION
Mounting
Mount the ENVIROMUX in any dry location convenient for connection of the sensors, Ethernet cable, modem and power
supply(s). The operating environment must be within -4°F to 185°F (-20°C to 85°C) with a relative humidity of 0to 99% (non-
condensing). When mounting the unit vertically, for best results mount the case with the integrated temperature sensor
positioned towards the floor.
Figure 1- Mount with sensor towards the floor
Connect Sensors
ENVIROMUX-MICRO-T(RHP) units are compatible with: ENVIROMUX-T-E7, ENVIROMUX-TRHM-E7 temperature and
temperature/humidity sensors as well as other types of sensors. For a complete list, visit our website at
http://www.networktechinc.com/environment-monitor-micro.html
Connect the desired sensors (sold separately) to the available ports on the ENVIROMUX. Plug the RJ45 connectors to either of
the two RJ45 ports marked "SENSORS". Mount the sensors according to their individual operating characteristics. Power-cycle
the ENVIROMUX after sensors have been plugged-in.
Note: The maximum CAT5 cable length for attachment of temperature and humidity sensors in the
ENVIROMUX-MICRO-T(RHP) is 507 feet using minimum 24AWG cable.
Note: Mounting the temperature sensor in the path of a fan or on a heated surface may affect the accuracy of the
sensor’s readings.

Figure 2- Connect Sensors
Up to two dry-contact sensors can also be connected. Sensors with 16-26 AWG connection wires that operate on 5V at 10mA
maximum current may be used. A contact resistance of 10kΩor less will be interpreted by the ENVIROMUX as a closed contact.
The maximum cable length for attachment of contact sensors is 1000 feet.
To install the dry-contact sensor(s) to “DIGITAL IN” terminals:
A. Attach the positive lead to a terminal corresponding to a "+" marking on the ENVIROMUX and the ground lead
to the next terminal to the right that will correspond to a marking on the ENVIROMUX. Tighten the set
screw above each contact. Terminal sets are numbered 1-2.
Note: The terminal block is
removable for easy sensor
wire attachment if needed.
B. Mount the sensors as desired.
Figure 3- Terminal block for dry-contact sensors
Optionally, connect the two-wire cable from a liquid detection sensor (Figure 4) to a set of “DIGITAL IN” contacts.
The twisted orange sensing cable should be placed flat on the surface (usually the floor) where liquid detection is desired. If tape
is required to hold the sensor in place, be sure to only apply tape to the ends, exposing as much of the sensor as possible. At
least 5/8" of the sensor must be exposed for it to function.

Figure 4- Secure liquid detection sensor with tape
NOTE:
When installing the ENVIROMUX-LD-LC, it is very important to assure the sensing cable does not cross over itself or
cross conductive surfaces to avoid false triggers.
To test the ENVIROMUX-LD(-LC);
1. Configure the sensor (page 17). (Normal Status set to “Open”)
2. Submerge at least ½ inch of the exposed twisted orange wire (not the wrapped end) for up to 30 seconds. Do NOT use
distilled water as water must be conductive.
3. Monitor the sensor (page 14) to see the sensor “Value” change from “Open” (dry) to “Closed” (wet).
4. Dry the exposed area of sensor and the sensor “Value” should change back to “Open” within 30 seconds.

Connect the Power
Note: Sensors should be connected before supplying power to the ENVIROMUX.
1. Connect the AC adapter to one of the connections marked "5.5VDC 1.5A” (either 1 or 2) on the ENVIROMUX and plug it
into an outlet.
Figure 7- Connect the AC adapter and power-up
If you have purchased the ENVIROMUX-TRHP and have connected it to a POE router, an external power supply will not be
needed as long as the router supports the IEEE 802.3af or 802.3at standards. (The Cisco Discovery Protocol is not supported.)
2. Use the NTI Discovery Tool (page 12) to configure network settings.
Cable Restraint
To provide a secure power connection to the ENVIROMUX, a cable restraint
has been provided. To secure the power cable, remove the screw that holds
the restraint to the ENVIROMUX, make a loop in the power cable and insert it
into the restraint. (The loop will prevent the cable from slipping through the
restraint.) Re-secure the restraint to the ENVIROMUX with the screw.
Figure 8- Use cable restraint
Loop the power

Connect a Modem
A USB GSM modem may be connected (ENVIROMUX-3GU) to use to send SMS alert messages to a contact’s cell phone. The
ENVIROMUX-3GU modem can be connected to the ENVIROMUX at the “USB OTG” port. . The same port can be used for
connecting a USB Flash Drive for data logging (page Error! Bookmark not defined.).
The phone number to be called for each user is configured under “User Settings-Contact Settings” (page 29).
Note: A Mini SIM card (not included) must be installed in the modem for the modem to send messages. Make sure the
SIM card is for GSM communication (not CDMA) and that it is not locked (some SIM cards are "locked" to search for a
specific IMEI number of the phone to operate).
Figure 9- Connect a Modem
Cell phone Mini SIM card for GSM modem
A SIM card or Subscriber Identity Module is a portable memory chip used in some models of cellular telephones. It can be thought
of as a mini hard disk that automatically activates the phone (or in this case the GSM modem) into which it is inserted.
SIM cards are available in two standard sizes. The first is the size of a credit card (85.60 mm × 53.98 mm x 0.76 mm). The newer,
more popular miniature-version has a width of 25 mm, a height of 15 mm, and a thickness of 0.76 mm.
Some cellular service providers use Mini SIM cards. Verify with your service provider that their Mini SIM card will work with GSM
/ 3G GSM modems before making a purchase.
Note: The ENVIROMUX-3GU will send SMS messages only. No access to the ENVIROMUX is possible through the
modem.

OVERVIEW
Administration
The ENVIROMUX can be managed and configured in any one of the following ways:
•Using Telnet protocol via the Ethernet Port.
•Using the web interface (HTTP/HTTPS protocol) via the Ethernet Port.
The following administrative controls are available in the ENVIROMUX, thru the menu.
•View or modify the administrator & user parameters (passwords, sensor alert subscriptions, admin access, etc.)
•View or modify the network parameters (e.g. IP Address, Gateways, DNS, etc.)
•View and clear system event logs
•Firmware upgrades for the ENVIROMUX (over Ethernet)
•View or modify sensor, and IP device configurations
General Functions
Sensor Alerts
A high and low threshold limit can be set for each temperature or humidity sensor. When a sensor takes a reading that is outside
a threshold, an alert notification is generated. The user can specify the frequency of alert notifications to match his or her
schedule. Also, there will be some hysteresis involved with alert notifications. This means if a sensor’s readings are moving in
and out of the threshold boundaries within a configurable period of time, additional alert notifications will not be sent. After an alert
is activated, it remains persistent even if the condition of the sensor returns back to normal, until the user acknowledges or
dismisses that alert. The user has the option to set the unit to auto-clear the alert if the sensor’s status returns to normal, and the
user can be notified if the condition goes back to normal. Alert notifications will be provided through four main methods: visible
notification via one of the user interfaces (alert on webpage, alert in text menu), emails, SMS messages and/or SNMP traps.
IP Monitoring & Alerts
Individual IP addresses can be monitored. The ENVIROMUX will ping each address, and if a response is received, the IP
address status is considered to be “OK”’. If no response, the user will have the option to configure the ENVIROMUX for an alert
will be logged and sent. The user can configure the timeout for a response and the number of retries before signaling an alert.
The ENVIROMUX can also be configured to monitor the IP addresses of the network switches and routers to which these devices
are connected, so as to determine if the problem is due to a lack of response from the device or a network failure. Alert
notifications will be provided through four main methods: visible notification via one of the user interfaces (alert on webpage, alert
in text menu), emails, SMS messages and/or SNMP traps.
Event Log
The ENVIROMUX maintains an event log. The event log includes power-ON, system, and alert notifications, as well as user alert
handling. The maximum number of log entries is 200, and these entries are sorted in chronological order. The log can be viewed
at any time through the web interface. Log entries can be removed individually or all at once.
Data Log
The ENVIROMUX maintains a data log. The data log includes readings taken from sensors, IP devices, and connected
accessories being monitored. The log will record data for up to 30 days, at 1 minute intervals erasing the oldest data to make
room for new. The log can be viewed at any time through the web interface, and can be saved as a text file in either Epoch time
format or standard date/time format. Log entries can be cleared with the press of a button. The text file can be sent to any user
automatically via syslog and/or email.

NTI Micro Environment Monitoring System
11
Email
The ENVIROMUX can access an SMTP server to send outgoing email. Outgoing email would contain pre-formatted alert
notifications. Email addresses can be configured through the web interface. Each user (up to 8) can have their own email
address. For assistance in setting up Email, see page 45.
The email messages sent by the ENVIROMUX have a fixed format. A sample message is shown below:
Subject: Message from E-MICRO P02 [Alert #1]
SENSOR: Test Switch 1
MESSAGE: Sensor value crossed over critical thresholds
VALUE: Closed
UNIT INFO: 192.168.1.24,00:0b:82:15:02:c3
SNMP
The ENVIROMUX can send alerts as SNMP traps when a sensor or IP device enters/leaves alert mode and for all log events.
Using an SNMP MIB browser, a user can monitor all sensor statuses and system IP settings.
The destination for SNMP traps can be configured for each user.
Note: The SNMP MIB file (micro-v1-xx.mib), for use with an SNMP MIB browser or SNMP trap receiver, can be found on
the manual CD. Click on the link to open the file, and then save the file to your hard drive to use with the SNMP MIB
browser or SNMP trap receiver.
GSM Modem
An external GSM modem can be connected to allow the system to send alert notifications via SMS messages. When a sensor
crosses a threshold or IP device become inactive, an alert notification can be formatted to SMS message and the modem can
transmit the message to all users that subscribe to the applicable sensor group.
Security
User Settings
In order to configure and operate the ENVIROMUX, each user must login with a unique username and password. The
Administrator can configure each user’s settings as User or Administrator. An Administrator has access to all configurations and
controls. A user can monitor sensors and IP devices. A user can edit his/her own account. Users cannot configure the alert
settings.
Secure Connections
The ENVIROMUX supports secure connections using HTTPS.
Authentications
The ENVIROMUX supports local authentication with up to 16 character usernames and passwords.
Encryption
The ENVIROMUX supports 256-bit AES encryption.

DEVICE DISCOVERY TOOL
In order to easily locate NTI Devices on a network, the NTI Device Discovery Tool may be used. A link to the Discovery Tool is
provided on the web page that appears when you insert the instruction manual CD provided into your CD ROM drive. Either click
on the link or browse the CD to locate the NTIDiscover.jar file. The Discover Tool can be run from the CD or it can be saved
to a location on your PC. Either way, to open it just double-click on the file NTIdiscover.jar . This will open the NTI Device
Discovery Tool.
Note: The Device Discovery Tool requires the Java Runtime Environment (version 6 or later) to operate. A copy of Java
version 6 is provided on the CD and a link to the web page from which it can be downloaded and installed is also on the
CD.
Note: The computer using the Device Discovery Tool and the NTI Device must be connected to the same subnet in order
for the Device Discovery Tool to work. If no devices are found, the message “No Devices Found” will be displayed.
Tip: If your Windows program asks which program to open the NTIDiscover.jar file with, select the Java program.
Figure 10- Device Discovery Tool
Click on the “Detect NTI Devices” button to start the discovery process. After a short time, the tool will display all NTI devices on
your network, along with their network settings.
How to Use the Device Discovery Tool
To Change a Device’s Settings, within the row of the device whose settings you wish to change, type in a new setting (one field
at a time) and click on the Submit button on that row. Update the IP Address, Mask, and Gateway as needed, one at a time. If
the tool discovers more than one device, the settings for all devices can be changed in the same fashion. (The “Submit All” button
is not supported by this product.)
To Refresh the list of devices, click on the Refresh button.
To Blink the LEDs of the unit, click on the Blink LED button (This feature is not supported on all products.) The Blink LED
button will change to a “Blinking….” button. The LEDs of the unit will blink until the Blinking… button is clicked on, or the NTI

OPERATION VIA WEB INTERFACE
A user may monitor and configure the settings of the ENVIROMUX and any sensor connected to it using the Web Interface via
any web browser (see page 2 for supported web browsers). To access the Web Interface, connect the ENVIROMUX to the
Ethernet (page 7). Use the Device Discovery Tool (page 12) to setup the network settings. Then, to access the web interface
controls, the user must log in.
Note: In order to view all of the graphics in the Web Interface, the browser’s JavaScript and Java must be enabled.
By default, the ENVIROMUX is configured to dynamically assign network settings received from a DHCP server on the network it
is connected to. (This can be changed to a static IP address to manually enter these settings in the Network Settings on page 25.)
The ENVIROMUX will search for a DHCP server to automatically assign its IP address each time the unit is powered up. If the
ENVIROMUX does not find a DHCP server, the address entered into the static IP address field (page 25 -default address shown
below) will be used. If a DHCP server on the network has assigned the IP address, use the Device Discovery Tool to identify the
IP address to enter when logging in to the ENVIROMUX.
Note: The computer using the Device Discovery Tool and the NTI Device must be connected to the same subnet in order
for the Device Discovery Tool to work. If no devices are found, the message “No Devices Found” will be displayed.
