8.7.1 SabHMI remote user interface
Connecting the SabHMI interface to the Unisab III panel
If connecting directly from the Unisab III panel to the PC, use a crossed LAN cable. The PC
must be set to a specific IP address matching the address of the Unisab III on the first three
segments. Segment 4 must be different. The Subnet mask must be the exact same on the PC
as on the Unisab III.
If Unisab III and the PC are both connected to a LAN network, the PC can be set to obtain the
IP address automatically but the Subnet mask on the Unisab III panel must be set to the
same one used on the LAN network.
Start the Unisab III HMI simulator. Find the menu Setup/Session/Remote Connect. Adjust the
IP address to be the same as the one in the Unisab III panel you wish to connect to. Please
note that the IP address is divided into 4 sections (IP no. 1, 2, 3 and 4).
When the IP address is set, scroll down to the line Remote Connect and select Remote. Now
communication between the HMI simulator and the Unisab III panel is established and the last
line reads Connected to the specific address.
With SabHMI you can operate the connected Unisab III remotely as if you were operating Uni-
sab III itself. Operation is carried out the exact same way; you have the same display and
can press the keys with your mouse.
From Unisab III version 1.0.5.0, the SabHMI application can be started directly with an IP
number as parameter. Using the string: /REM:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx as a parameter in the windows
shortcut makes SabHMI connect remotely to the Unisab III with IP number xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.
The shortcut target line may look like this: "C:\Program Files\YORK\UnisabIII_1056
\Win32HMI.exe" /REM:10.63.129.34. In this example SabHMI will connect remotely to the
Unisab III with IP number 10.63.129.34.
From version 1.0.7.0 the name of file map where program and data files are installed is
changed from \YORK\ to \JCI\. The shortcut target line may now look like this: "C:\Program
Files\JCI\UnisabIII_1076 \Win32HMI.exe" /REM:10.63.129.34.
From version 1.0.8.0 the file map where the data (xml) files are installed is separated from
the program code file map. Data files are now installed in the folder: C:\Documents and Set-
tings\”username”\Local Settings\Application Data\UnisabIII_1082.
