Oops. I didn't understand this information, which now makes sense:
I think I have this straight now. OpenHab runs on the Pine, which should have sensors connected, if using OpenHab is to make any sense. But OpenHab itself doesn't generate output that you can view via the HDMI connector on the Pine64. So, to access the data from those sensors, or to adjust any settings, or for whatever reason you need to see something relating to the Pine64's sensors, you open a browser and access OpenHab from elsewhere on the network. That is, from another computer.
Thanks for your kind replies.
