your local computer network. When connected to your computer network the nCompass control has
access to the following functionality:
• VNC access for remote connection, for local network users.
When your local computer network also has internet access, the nCompass control has access to the
following functionality:
• Email (and text) alerts to a specified email address (or phone).

EMAIL / TEXT ALARMS MAY NOT OPERATE DURING POWER FAILURE

The battery backup system on the freezer only powers the control during power failure. It does
not power any additional network systems which may be required for your internet to operate.
It is recommended to have your local network router, and modem, connected to a battery
backup, so the freezer’s internet connection will continue to operate during power failure.
