Introduction
All Maple Systems HMIs programmed with EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro), including every cMT X Series and cMT Series model, are compatible with a Mitsubishi A3A/A3N/A1SH/A2SH. Configure your Controller and HMI/cMT with the following parameters to establish reliable communication.
Supported Series: Mitsubishi A3A,A3N,A1SH,A2SH

Wiring Diagrams
NOTE: Due to hardware limitations, this PLC is not supported by HMI models without RTS/CTS.
Use the RS422 to RS232 PLC programming cable (shown as follows).
NOTE: The serial port pin assignments may vary between HMI models.
