Setup in Minutes!
Our Ethernet Temperature Thermometers are easy to setup and configure. And with a variety of protocols supported, you’re spoilt for choice. First chose your IP address:
Next configure your Email settings. For most people, that’s it!
OR if you want, you can set your notification email address, to that of an email-to-SMS service (such as the Australian site: UTbox.net), so that you can receive an SMS whenever temperatures rise.
If you chose to use UTbox.net for your SMS alerting needs, you can use our UTBOX REFERRAL CODE: Q2G6-84CP-VAFD for a $5 discount on signing up to Utbox.net
All of our Ethernet Thermometers INCLUDE a regulated power supply as standard, along with Ethernet cable, temperature probe, and full instructions. Ready to use!
Easy Configuration
Each Ethernet Thermometer (“TME”) is set up with a default IP address (192.168.1.254). You can change this setting instantly, using the supplied Windows configuration application. OR you can configure all the settings, via Telnet (or Terminal on an Apple Macintosh or Linux computer), on port 9999.
e.g. TELNET 192.168.1.254 9999
You also control and set the temperature range, web, email and other protocol settings via the same method.
If you want to check your thermometer, you simply call up a web browser window, and enter the IP address of your thermometer. e.g: http://192.168.1.254/
Advanced options
For those who like to “get their hands dirty”, you can also incorporate the Ethernet Thermometer’s temperature information into your existing monitoring web page, using the HTTP Get protocol.
If you have existing network and system monitoring products, that use the SNMP (UDP) trap methodology, then this product is for you. You simply set traps for when certain temperature events occur.
Or, if you’d prefer, you can configure settings in the SOAP section (XML over networks).
Prefer a straight decimal view?
You can have the Decimal view:
Or, the Mini-Web view, for use with WAP devices.
Just with a click of your mouse.

What SMTP server should I use with my Ethernet Thermometer?
For sending email alerts, you need to specify an SMTP (Mail) server. If you have an internal mail server on your network, simply use your server’s IP address.
If you use an external Internet Service Provider (or use an External Mail server), simply use the IP address of your Internet Service Provider’s SMTP server (Mail server).
E.g. if your ISP is Bigpond, or iiNet, you can use the IP address of the Bigpond (144.140.80.10) or iiNet (203.0.178.192) SMTP server respectively. The same applies for other ISP’s too.
How do I graph, chart, or plot a history of the temperature from my Ethernet Thermometer?

How do I get my TME to send more than 1 alert, when the temperature has exceeded my limits?
When configuring your TME (Ethernet Thermometer), you have several options that you can set yourself.
One is the ‘sending period’. This is how often alerts are sent out, once a trigger-point has been reached. You can set values from 2 to 3600 seconds.
So, to send an alert every minute once a temperature range has been exceeded, you would enter “60 seconds”. For an alert every hour, enter “360 seconds”. For every 10 hours, enter “3600 seconds” (or any value in between 2-3600 seconds, of your choice).
You can also set the ‘hysteresis’ value (degrees C). This determines how much variation (buffer / flexibility) outside your set range, the thermometer has. You can set your hysteresis to ‘0’ if you like. But if you find that you are getting too many alerts (one each time your TME goes just outside of range), you can use the ‘hysteresis’ value to soften the temperature range curve, so that fewer alerts are sent out.
Which model thermometer should I use?
“Ethernet (Powered? PoE?) USB? RS232? Please help me decide!”
As a general guide, our Ethernet Thermometers (two models: with regulated Power-supply, or our new Power-over-Ethernet model), are our most comprehensive thermometers, complete with a full host of alerting options (including Email, Email-to-SMS (see above), HTTP, XML, SNMP traps, HTTP Get, etc.). Designed for Mission-Critical applications, such as in Server Rooms or Server Cabinets.
If you have a PoE network, a Power-over-Ethernet Thermometer will match your needs. Otherwise, use our standard Ethernet Thermometer with regulated Power-supply as a more affordable alternative.
If all you want is a straight “ASCII” output (without any alerting abilities), then our RS232 or USB thermometers may suit your needs.
