Installing

Install the OP4512 simulator on a table or in a mounting rack with sufficient space on both sides to allow proper airflow cooling (about 15 cm or 6 in.).

Connect the Power and Ground

• Connect the power cord to the unit and to an appropriate power source (outlet).

• If installed in a rack, connect the ground screw to the rack, if installed in a rack. See how to connect the ground screw here.

Connect the Simulator to the Host PC

The OP4512 simulator communicates with the Windows host computer via TCP/IP.

The simulator can be connected in two different ways:

• Directly to your host computer (direct connection)

• Via your local area network (local area network configuration).

Please follow the instructions in this page to connect your host PC in either way:

• Direct connection

• Local area network configuration

Connect the Ethernet cable provided to the primary Ethernet port named eno1.
Its default IP address: 10.64.117.149.

The OPAL-RT simulators can be controlled remotely through the IPMI interface. This article of the OPAL-RT knowledge base explains how to do so.
Your IPMI credentials are in the HIL2GO bundle data card named “Meet your HL2GO bundle.” delivered with your system.
