GENERAL WARNINGS FOR THE INSTALLER
1. Install the device in places that respect its degree of protection.
2. Avoid using multi-pole cables with conductors connected to inductive and power
conductors and signal conductors like sensors and digital inputs.
3. Avoid putting in the same channels, power cables with signal cables (sensors and
digital inputs).
4. Reduce the lengths of the connection cables as much as possible, preventing the
wiring from taking the spiral shape harmful for possible inductive effects on electronics.
5. All electric cables used in wiring must be properly proportionate to support the load
that must feed.
6. If it’s necessary to prolong the probes cable, the use of appropriate section
conductors, and in any case not less than 1mm², is necessary. The extension or
shortening of the probes could alter the factory calibration. Then proceed with the
verification and calibration by means of an external thermometer.
MECHANICAL FIXING
Place the Module on DIN guide and close the
lower hook to block it on it.
Make all electric connections
according to the attached patterns
for the corresponding model (see
the relative tables in attachments).
During the wiring it is recommended to keep
the power cables away from those of the
signal.

To connect the NEXUS instrument to the internet via Wi-Fi or ethernet, do the following:
1) Download the myPego app from the Google/Apple store and install it on a
smartphone/tablet.
2) Activate Bluetooth on the NEXUS instrument with the dedicated activation key. The
flashing icon activates.
3) Open the myPego app and access the
Bluetooth section.
4) Touch the "Scan” key and the "Confirm” key to make the connection. The Bluetooth icon
on the instrument turns on steady to signal the connection.
5) The homepage of the application opens, where it is possible to see the superheat and
consult the status of the inputs and outputs.
6) In the selection bar below, tap the “Cloud” icon
to access the network configuration menu.
7) Upon first sign in, the myPego app prompts
setting up of your Cloud connection. If relevant,
continue by pressing the “Ok” key otherwise
press “Cancel” and skip directly to step 14).

8) By clicking “Ok” in the previous point, the Login
page opens. If already registered, enter the
registration e-mail and password and click
Login. Otherwise click "Sign in" to make the first
registration.
9) If you are registering for the first
time, please enter a valid e-mail
address and password.
A verification email will be sent to
the address indicated: click on the
link in the email to confirm the
registration.
Once registration is confirmed, you
will be able to log in with the
account created (see point 8).
10) Once the user has been created (or logged in
with an existing user), the device must be
associated with an existing Cloud subscription;
or create a new subscription. Touch the second
link to associate the device with the registered
user's cloud subscription.
11) If the user does not have an active cloud
subscription, the subscription activation page
opens.
Select the type of plan you need based on the
number of instruments you want to monitor.
Continue with the activation of the plan through
the payment page.

12) Enter your payment details (only the methods
provided in the app are available).
The charge will take place only after the trial
period and it is possible to interrupt the renewal of
the subscription at any time.
13) Once the subscription plan has been created, it is
possible to associate the instrument with the
Cloud.
Then return to the "Cloud" page of the app
(Bluetooth side) and associate the device by
clicking on the second tab. Turn the NEXUS off
and on again.
The device is thus associated with the
subscription, but to allow data transmission it is
necessary to configure the Wi-Fi / Ethernet
connection to the internet.
14) Touch the last link at the bottom "DEVICE NOT
CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET" to configure
the connection.

DHCP is activated, it will be necessary to return
to this page after a few moments, to check the IP
received from the DHCP server.
- If Wi-Fi connection:
touch the WI-FI ON switch and configure the
SSID and password of the network to which the
NEXUS will connect. Enable DHCP if needed.
At the end of the setting, touch the "Send
settings" key.
16) At the end of the configuration, when the instrument is connected (via Wi-Fi or
ethernet) the icon is activated (after about one minute). You may need to power
cycle your NEXUS.

INSTRUMENT SHARING
The "Instrument Sharing" function allows you to share the NEXUS with other users (up to
3) even if they are not subscribers (it’s sufficient that each user has their own account).
Sharing users:
- receive alarms and notifications.
- can check the status of the NEXUS device.
- can send commands and modify parameters (if cCL=2).
To share, the instrument must be correctly registered in the Cloud.
Note: It’s not possible to log in with the same user from multiple different devices at the
same time.
1) Open the tool in the Cloud section of
the myPego app, go to the Cloud
page and select the last link ("Share
the device in the Cloud”).
2) Touch the (+) symbol to add a
shared user; in the window that
appears enter the email address of
the user with whom you want to
share the NEXUS. Touch the
"Share" button to share.
3) If sharing is successful, the shared
user is added to the list. You can
share your NEXUS with up to three
users.
Note: the owner can stop sharing at any
time by touching the icon next to the
shared user.

USER AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
WEB INTERFACE / HTTP ACCESS
The NEXUS instrument integrates a web server which allows the monitoring and
modification of the parameters through a normal web browser or direct http interface. To
access the instrument's website, you need to know its IP address using the procedure
described in the "Connections setup" chapter (via the myPego app => Bluetooth
connection => cloud card).
HTTP ACCESS
By sending properly formatted requests with the http protocol to the IP address of the
device, it is possible to access information in real time, change parameters, send
commands, etc. Access to this feature is password protected. Below is an example of
communication between a third-party system (which sends the request) and the NEXUS
(which sends the response).
Request:
http://IP1.IP2.IP3.IP4/ajax_data.cgi?pgd=’passcode’
Answer:
{"temp":"23.8","sttmp":"-0.5","bg_temp":"1","stby":"0","ligh":"0","def":"0","almst":"0","recst":"0"}
temp = current room temperature sttmp = temperature setpoint
bg_temp = reserved stby = stand-by status
ligh = cold room light status def = defrost status
almst = alarm present recst = active registrations
For further information, refer to the dedicated manual to be requested from Pego.
WEB SERVER
Type the local IP address of the connected instrument in the address bar of the web
browser: the access page appears. Access to the NEXUS homepage is subject to access
control using a username and password.
The NEXUS web pages can be accessed in two ways, based on the value of the cSL
parameter (1st level parameters):
- If cSL=1, normal user: by entering the string "admin" in the "Username" field and the
value set in the "PA" parameter in the "Password" field (1st level, e.g. if PA=6 enter the
password: "006") is accessed in read-only mode. The modification of the parameters, the
setpoint and the manual activation of the outputs (e.g. light, defrost, etc.) are therefore
inhibited.
- If cSL=2, Administrator user: inserting the string "admin" in the "Username" field and the
value set in the "PA" parameter in the "Password" field (3rd level, e.g. if PA=6 insert
password: "006") you have full access to the functions. It’s therefore possible to modify
the parameters and access all the functions.
