USB/SD Port
The RMI5001 has an SD card slot and USB host port. These ports are
designed for keyboard/mouse connection or data storage only.
Note: If connecting a USB hard drive, power the drive with its own
power supply. DO NOT charge any device from the USB port.
Initial Configuration Setup and Maintenance
The HMI will need to be configured before initial use. Use the
EZwarePlus software to create a project that will be downloaded into the
HMI. The HMI has a Demonstration project pre-installed.
Use the Ethernet Crossover Configuration Cable (P/N 7431-0104) if
connecting the HMI directly to the development PC.
If using a switch or router between the PC and the HMI, use a straight-
through or crossover cable as required by the switch or router.
Accessing IP Address of the HMI
The HMI's Ethernet port is configured as a DHCP client (Dynamic IP)
by default from the factory. To download a project into the HMI, it is
necessary to know the IP address of the HMI. Follow the steps below to
change it:
1. Connect a High-Definition compliant video display to the HMI via
HDMI cable (or appropriate DVI/HDMI adapter cable). Select the
appropriate Digital Input mode on the display.
2. Connect a USB mouse to the HMI's USB host port.
3. Power the HMI and you will see the currently-loaded project on the
display.
4. Using the mouse, enter the System Settings menu by clicking the
arrow icon located at the lower-right corner of the screen.
5. Click the gear icon to open the Settings window.
6. Enter the HMI password (default password is 111111) to enter the
System Settings window.
7. Click the "Obtain IP address from Below" radio button and enter the
desired IP address and Subnet Mask (Dependent upon your specific
networking configuration).
8. Click "Apply" and then "OK" to save the changes.
9. Connect the HMI to the PC or network and now you can download to
and configure the HMI.
