Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions

To control your Honeywell thermostat remotely through the internet, you must run through these Honeywell WiFi thermostat registration instructions. Furthermore, you do this at the  Honeywell Total Connect Comfort (TCC)   web site.  So here, we walk you through that on the RTH9580WF smart thermostat.

Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions: First Steps

1. Install your Honeywell WiFi Thermostat

Firstly, skip this step if your thermostat is up and running, and showing its home screen.  If it isn’t, then see our Honeywell Smart Thermostat Wiring Instructions RTH9580WF post. So this gives tips on mounting and wiring this new thermostat.

2. Connect your T-stat to your WiFi Network with Internet Access

Skip this step if you’ve already connected your thermostat to an internet-ready Wi-Fi network at its installed location.  If you haven’t, then see our Change WiFi Network on Honeywell Smart Thermostat RTH9580WF piece for instructions. That post details how to link your thermostat to your home or office wireless network.

3. Create an Account on the TCC Web Site

You’ll need a working account over there in order to register your thermostat and control it remotely.  Again, skip this step if you’ve already set up a TCC account.  If you have not, then visit the TCC web site here. Then on the login page, click the  Create an Account  button, and then follow the instructions.

4. Gather Thermostat Info

To add your thermostat to your TCC account, you need its MAC address and CRC code.  They print these in the documentation that accompanies new Honeywell thermostats.  However, you may also get them from the thermostat itself, as follows.  If you have this information already, then skip ahead to Step 5 below.

6. Tap the Yellow Message Box

Find this box on the left center of the screen.  This brings up a notification screen. This says that you need to register this thermostat online.

7. Tap the   Wi-Fi Setup Button to Continue with Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions

The   Wi-Fi Setup  screen displays.

Note that we connect the thermostat to our 937T681J4059H_2G wireless network. However nonetheless, it is as of yet,  unregistered.  You should have connected yours to the network you used in Prerequisite Step 2 above.

We “pink-painted over” our thermostat’s MAC address and CRC value in these pictures for security reasons.

8. Write Down CRC and MAC Address Shown

Now you need these values in the steps below to complete the registration.

9. Visit the   Honeywell Total Connect Comfort   Web Site

Then on your computer, phone, or tablet, point your web browser at https://www.mytotalconnectcomfort.com/ .

The system may then prompt you for which region you are in.  So click on that.  Then You’ll then see the TCC login screen.

10. Enter your TCC Account User Name and Password to Continue with Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions

11. Press the red    Login   Button

So this may be your first time signing into the TCC web site. Thus you never set up any locations before. If so, then you’ll see the following screen. Note that you must set up at least one location to register your thermostat in.  We detail how to do that in the steps following.

But if you already defined the location, then it will show on the  My Locations   screen.  Skip ahead to step 12 in that case, to continue the registration process.

11a. Tap the Black   Add Location   Button

The    Add Location  screen then displays, as shown next.

11b. Type in the Requested Info About the Location you Want to Define

So in this demo, we define a place named Graystone.  Now in your case, enter the place’s name,  address, region, city, and state. Furthermore, don’t forget to choose the place type you wish for this new location (home or building).

11c. Tap the Red   Submit   Button to Continue with Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions

The site then displays the   Register Device   page, as shown next.

12.  Tap the   Settings   Button  on the Already-Defined Location

You’ll then see the   Edit My Location   screen, as shown next.

13. Tap the Black   Add Device   Button

So find this near the lower left corner of the screen.

Then tapping this button brings up the   Register Device   screen.

14. Enter the MAC Address and CRC Value you Wrote Down in Step 4 Above

15. Tap the Red   Submit   Button to Continue with Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration Instructions

The system then briefly displays the   Device Registration In Progress   screen as shown next.

After several seconds, you then get the  Thermostat Registration Successful   screen, as follows.

16. Tap the Black   View Button

This takes you to your newly registered thermostat’s status screen, as seen in the following picture.
