Remote Services Setup
NOTE: If used for Remote Services, Tuxedo Touch should not be configured as a secondary controller.
To use Remote Service, do the following:
1. Verify the Tuxedo is connected to the Internet via its Ethernet connector.
2. Enable AlarmNet Direct, enroll the communication device and Tuxedo keypad, and enable Total Connect usage. The screen
displays “using Tuxedo Automation Module” (Yes /No); select Yes. You will need the Tuxedo keypad’s MAC ID and CRC
number, which can be found on a label on the back of the Tuxedo keypad or on its carton.
NOTE: Only the Primary keypad (if there is more than one in the same installation) can be enrolled into Total Connect.
3. Open a Total Connect account for the user if an account does not already exist.
4. After a Total Connect account has been set up, the Tuxedo Keypad must be reset (powered down and powered up).
5. Enable automation devices to be controlled by Total Connect. See “Enabling Devices for Total Connect“. After devices have been
enabled for Total Connect, follow the Total Connect prompts to synchronize the data with Tuxedo. Syncing is required before
the enabled devices will display in Total Connect.
