Note - Please ensure that you update your thermostat to the latest firmware. Initially tested on firmware 5.10 and currently VH6.79.
Local API mode needs to be enabled via the thermostat's *Menu > WiFi > Local API Options > Local API - ON*
### Enabling Local API
Local API mode needs to be enabled on the thermostat itself. It cannot be enabled using the Venstar mobile apps or Skyport cloud service. Exact steps vary across different [series](https://venstar.com/thermostats/) of thermostats:
- [ColorTouch](https://venstar.com/thermostats/colortouch/)
- **Menu** > **WiFi** > **Local API Option** > **[Local API - ON](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kB_HcJ3kqCg&t=51s)**.
- [EXPLORER](https://venstar.com/thermostats/explorer/) / [EXPLORER IAQ](https://venstar.com/thermostats/explorer-iaq/)
- Press **SETUP**.
- Press **MODE** repeatedly until you see [LOCAL API](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRmWFwfQAhU&t=276s).
- Press **WARMER** to toggle "ON".
- Press **SETUP** to exit.
- [EXPLORER Mini](https://venstar.com/thermostats/explorermini/)
- Press and hold **MODE** + **FAN** together for 5 seconds.
- Press **MODE** repeatedly until you see "API".
- Press **WARMER** to toggle "ON".
- Press **MODE** + **FAN** together to exit.
If the local API is successfully enabled on the thermostat, you should see some basic API info when you navigate to its IP address in a web browser:
```json
{"api_ver":7,"type":"commercial","model":"VYG-4800","firmware":"2.22.19"}
```
