Query about the need to input the details of BIMserver settings before I can use OpenStudio

When I open the OpenStudio Application Version 1.0.1 and try to import IFC file to OpenStudio, a message box appears asking me to provide the details of BIMserver settings, including BIMserver address, BIMserver post, Usesrname and Password.

I presume that OpenStudio is a free, open software, so I just wonder if these information is required before I can use OpenStudio. If so, please advise where I can find these information.

I would like to use OpenStudio to convert a SketchUp file to gbXML file for importing to DesignBuilder for environmental performance assessment. Your advice is sought please. Thanks.
