Introduction
Getting Started
The Nortec Remote User Interface enables users to operate their humidifier remotely using a
computer or tablet. This enables users to monitor the operation of the humidifier, as well as
make certain configuration changes without needing to be physically present at the unit. It is
ideal for facility managers with multiple humidifiers, users who prefer remote access, and
service technicians. All humidifiers equipped with the touch screen “Integrated Controller”
include this functionality as a standard feature.
System Requirements
The Remote User Interface operates over a Local Area Network (LAN) or through a direct
connection between a computer and the humidifier. To take advantage of the Remote User
Interface you will need the following:
1. Nortec Humidifier with Integrated controller (such as the NH-EL)
2. A wired (“ethernet”) connection between the humidifier and the local area network or
computer.
3. A computer or tablet device with a web browser installed. Browsers such as Internet
Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox are examples of acceptable web browsers.
NOTE: While the Remote User Interface requires a web browser to display data, a
connection to the internet is NOT required.
4. A wired or wireless connection between computer and the Local Area Network (LAN).
Tip: Nortec Humidifiers equipped with the touch screen Integrated Controller are also capable of
connecting to Nortec OnLine. Nortec OnLine allows you to monitor and connection to your
humidifiers over the internet through www.norteconline.com. It is ideal for facility managers
who operate multiple humidifiers or multiple locations, and provides many advanced features
such as email notifications when service is required. Find out more by visiting
