Remote Control and Port Forwarding
The ELV8e can be controlled remotely by setting up port forwarding in the remote site’s
internet router. The IT department can open an external port to point to the internal IP
address and port of the ELV8e. You can then connect to the ELV8e through the internet
from another location, using the external IP address of the site and the external port
assigned to you. Port 80 must be forwarded for access to the configuration web page,
and port 10001 must be forwarded to control relay channels.
Note: Port 80 and 10001 are the default ports used by the ELV8e. If you can’t
communicate on these ports, the installer may have changed them.
For domestic applications, most decent internet routers will allow port forwarding, but
you may need to set up a dyndns (or similar) account to keep track of your external IP
address. This manual does not go into specific details as each router is different. You
should ‘google’ your router model to find information to set this up. If you need some
