Connect to ISY (remote)
Prerequisites
-
Configure remote ISY access (option 1)
- Take note of the IP Address (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn), and the Port number (if you changed it from default 443) where you can access your ISY
-
Important: test your ability to connect to your ISY remotely using a Web browser (such as Google Chrome or Safari) on your mobile device. If you can’t connect from the mobile device using a Web browser, Agave won’t be able to connect either.
In the mobile Web browser, type the address for your ISY:
https://your-ip-address:port
for example, https://123.456.789.012:4321
If navigating to the above address (specific to your ISY) does not display the default ISY Web interface, either remote access is not properly configured, or the IP/port used are not correct. You must fix the problem before proceeding to connect with Agave.
Set up connection in Agave
- Go to Agave menu > Settings > ISY Logon Settings > Login Settings
- Enter the ISY Username and ISY Password
-
Enter the connection details for remote access
ISY Address : IP address (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn) or host name (foo.bar.com) without protocol and port
(port): The connection port, if not the displayed default (80/insecure, 443/secure)
Use SSL: Check if SSL (secure) connection should be used, uncheck if SSL should not be used (insecure)By convention, many Agave users enter their remote IP settings in the Secondary URL field; however, if you don’t use any local/home network access, it is also fine to enter it as the Primary URL.
- Click the Save button
- If the connection to the ISY was a success, a success message will appear.
If the connection was not successful, a “login update failure” message will appear and you should try re-entering your username/password and connection information. If that does not succeed, you should verify your connection to the Internet and to your ISY using a web browser on the same mobile device).
