INTERNET COMMUNICATION FEATURES
The MPC Platinum RINet (with Internet connection) has many features and benefits.
• Boiler and Sensor status, values, and settings. Provides “Live” status and editing capability of Platinum control settings and values
from virtually anywhere using a computer with Internet access.
• Space Temperatures. Gives accurate feed back of heating levels in different parts of the building.
• Alarms. Multiple alarms can be set for specific conditions either based on control operation or sensor status. Each alarm can be
configured to send a message through a variety of means (web control status, e-mail, and cellular text messages).
• Vari-Boost Enhancements. With Space Lockout activated, Boost can end sooner if the Space Average reached the Day Target. In
addition, Boost can extend up to an hour if the Space Average did not reach the target during the Boost period.
• Fast Cool Down. With Space Lockout set to Enable, the Fast Cool Down turns the outputs off to cool the building down faster
when switching from Day to Night (Setback) until the Night Target is reached.
• Water Meter Inputs. The MPC Platinum is designed to connect to a variety of sensors including a water meter sensor. Thus
providing water consumption monitoring. This can be used to detect boiler feed or building water leaks.
• Oil Tank Levels. Platinum controls can be connected to Oil Tank Level Monitor to send an alarm when low levels are reached or
measure daily oil consumption.
• Boiler and Cycle Time-lines. Multiple history graphs showing boiler operation based on the input as well as the control logic.
• History. Displays a graphical history of the sensor readings based on predetermined intervals.
• Data Export. Send spreadsheet reports of history of the sensor readings and control settings to an e-mail based on predetermined
intervals.
ALERT
When connecting an Internet control, make sure of the following:
●
Control must have a full time Internet access,
●
The firewall must forward specific inbound port traffic to the control IP address.
●
The Firewall must allow outgoing traffic on port 4133 and incoming traffic on ports 8082 - 8114,
●
A Heat-Timer router is required when multiple controls are connected to a single internet connection
