Local HMI
The access to the Local HMI is through a keyboard, monitor, and mouse connected to the
USB KVM card on the rear panel of the D400. For KVM setup information, see
“Local HMI
connection” on page 64.
The D400’s Local HMI is presented within an X Windows environment running on the Linux
operating system. It provides limited functionality from the standard HMI. You cannot
configure the D400 through the Local HMI.
To access the Local
HMI from a local
substation computer
1. If not already on, turn on the video display monitor.
If you just powered up the D400, wait for the start up messages to complete and the
D400 login prompt to appear.
2. At the D400 login prompt, enter your D400 administrator user name (default is root)
and your administrator password (default is geroot). Leave the IP address at 127.0.0.1.
