configuration software

Use the password-protected software to enable,

configure, commission, archive data, monitor,

command, and perform system diagnosis from any

device through a web browser, without the need for

separate workstation software.

Linux® operating system

The NAE55 network engines at Release 10.0 and

later run on Linux, which is a robust, widelyaccepted, and readily-supported operating system.

Background file transfer

With this new feature, you can transfer firmware

upgrades, archive databases, HTTPS security

certificates, and security databases from the

System Configuration Tool (SCT) to the NAE55

while the engine remains operational, minimizing

system disruptions. Background file transfer is

only available for NAE55s at Release 10.1 or later,

and for the new family of SNE and SNC network

engines that were introduced at Release 10.1. For

information about the newest engines, refer to the

SNE/SNC Product Bulletin (LIT-12013296)

Ordering information

Contact the nearest Johnson Controls representative to order a network engine. The following tables list the

product code numbers and accessories for all available network engines based on model. If you receive an

NAE55 engine from the factory that is imaged with an older release, you can field-upgrade the engine to

Release 12.0 if the upgrade is supported. To order repair parts, add -702 or -703 in place of the last number

(for example, MS-NAE5521-703).
