To control your Honeywell thermostat remotely through the internet, you must run through this Honeywell WiFi Thermostat Registration routine. 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.
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 Directions RTH9580WF post. So this gives tips on mounting and wiring this new thermostat.
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 directions. That post details how to link your thermostat to your home or office wireless network.
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 directions.
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.
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.
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.
Now you need these values in the steps below to complete the registration.
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.
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.
The Add Location screen then displays, as shown next.
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).
The site then displays the Register Device page, as shown next.
You’ll then see the Edit My Location screen, as shown next.
So find this near the lower left corner of the screen.
Then tapping this button brings up the Register Device screen.
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.
This takes you to your newly registered thermostat’s status screen, as seen in the following picture.
At least, thermostat registration is complete. So you can now control it via the internet and the Honeywell TCC web site or app.
