Using the T1000 Graphical User Interface (GUI)
The graphical user interface includes a configuration utility and a statistical utility, called
Dashboard, either of which you access through a workstation connected to an Ethernet port
on the T1000. If your computer does not have a supported Java plug-in installed, the utility
prompts you to download and install the plug-in the first time you log on. If automatic
installation fails, you can install the plug-in separately before you attempt to log on to the
configuration utility or Dashboard.
The system requirements for the workstation running the GUI are as follows:
• For Windows-based workstations, a Pentium® 166 MHz or faster processor with at
least 48 MB of RAM is recommended for applets running in a browser using a Java
plug-in product. You should have 40 MB free disk space before installing the
plug-in.
• For Linux-based workstations, a Pentium platform running Linux kernel v2.2.12 or
above, and glibc version 2.12-11 or later. A minimum of 32 MB RAM is required,
and 48 MB RAM is recommended. The workstation should support 16-bit color
mode, KDE and KWM window managers used in conjunction, with displays set to
local hosts.
• For Solaris-based workstations, Solaris 7 or 8 (or higher), and the Java 2 Runtime
Environment, Standard Edition, version 1.6 or later.
• Your workstation must have a supported web browser and version 1.6 or above of the
Java® applet plug-in installed to access the configuration utility and Dashboard.
The following browsers are supported.
• Windows 7 operating system: Internet Explorer 8 (or higher) or Google Chrome 4.1
(or higher).
• Windows XP operating systems: Internet Explorer 6 (or higher) or Google Chrome
4.1 (or higher).
