Can I use PROFINET with Maple Systems Product?
Yes, we have several products that support PROFINET. HMI products, Network Switches, CODESYS enabled HMIs
Does Maple Systems CODESYS SoftPLC Platform support PROFINET?
Yes! Our CODESYS SoftPLC Platform does support Profinet IO Master functionality now! This enhancement allows our advanced and high-performance HMIs and cMT-CTRL01 to function as a Profinet IO controller, facilitating command transmission to various Profinet IO devices, such as remote IO, drives, and sensors. This upgrade significantly boosts system integration and scalability, delivering a comprehensive Profinet communication protocol solution.

Do your CODESYS-activated HMIs support WebVisu?
Our CODESYS-activated HMIs deliver fast, reliable local visualization for machine-level applications. For supervisory-level projects, Maple IPCs support CODESYS WebVisu, and when paired with our Web HMIs, you get an industrial-grade touchscreen that can display any WebVisu project—no extra licensing required.
How many devices can a Maple Systems CODESYS-activated HMI communicate with?
It depends on which protocol you’re using . Our CODESYS-activated HMIs use Modbus TCP/IP, EtherCat, CANopen, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET

Why don’t Array of Arrays Tags from CODESYS and Schneider Work?
Some users may implement Array of Arrays tags in CODESYS or Schneider PL programs to create a multi-dimensional array. These will not function properly when imported into EBPro and cause errors. To resolve this, users can instead use alternative syntax to declare multi-dimensional arrays.
