OMT IPv6 Connection

After the island has been physically installed and powered up, you can use this procedure to connect to the TeSys island with the OMT. The OMT can connect directly to the bus coupler using the IPv6 address.

To perform this procedure, the island must be on the network and able to communicate with the OMT using a wireless or wired connection on a standard Windows^® operating system.

Connecting to the TeSys island with the OMT via IPv6

Verify that the PC is connected to the same network as the bus coupler through a wireless or wired connection.
Access the Network window on the PC via the Navigation Pane in File Explorer (called Windows Explorer prior to Windows 8).
Under Other Devices, the TeSys island appears as "TeSysisland_xxxx." If the island does not appear, you may have to disable the firewall running on your PC.
Right-click "TeSysisland_xxxx" and select Properties.

Result: The island properties are displayed.
Click the device web page link. This is the IPv6 IP address of the bus coupler.

Result: The OMT launches in your default browser.
If you are taken to the page, "Your connection is not private", then perform the following steps:
1. Click the Advanced button.
2. Click the link Proceed to [xxxx::xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xx] (unsafe) to continue.
  
  Result: The OMT login screen is displayed on the screen.
Log in with the default username and password (admin, schneider18) and click Login.

Result: The Change Password window opens.
Set a secure password and record it before continuing.

Result: You are now logged in to the OMT and connected to the island.

NOTE: If you forget your password, a factory reset will be required to regain access to the OMT. For more information, refer section Performing a Factory Reset.
