2.1 Basic configuration of the HomeServer in the sample project

For commissioning the HomeServer a commissioning computer is needed on which the
EIB project has been programmed. The Expert software has to be installed on this com-
puter. The Expert program is used for programming the HomeServer with all functions
that are necessary. At least the programmed data has to be transferred by a direct con-
nection from computer to HomeServer. There is also the possibility for data transmission
via EIB.
The HomeServer is already equipped with a sample project on delivery. Due to this
sample project, the HomeServer has an IP address and a net mask. In addition, four users
have already been created. You can log into the HomeServer using their login data. The
user interface is designed for use at a monitor resolution of 1024 x 768. The project has
been designed for access via the local network. Access via the internet is not planned but
can be quickly setup if required.
Details regarding the users and passwords stored in the sample project, and which lists
can be requested, are contained in "Functions test via internet browser" on page 16".
