Yes, you can replace the default startup screen on an HMI with one of your own choosing. The graphic file must be in a bitmap format (*.bmp). For best results, size the graphic so that it is the same size as the HMI screen in pixels. You can download your custom startup screen along with…

Transport Layer Security (TLS), and its now-deprecated predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), are cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over a computer network.
Security is paramount in today’s technologically advanced times and so is connectivity. Many PLCs take advantage of Ethernet communication to transmit data to a monitoring device such as an HMI. Plant corporate networks also run via Ethernet. But how do you get data from the PLC to your corporate network without the bandwidth or security…
Absolutely. Maple Systems PLCs can communicate with an HMI + PLC (HMC) either with or without I/O modules attached to it. A potential application would be to have the PLC installed in a remote cabinet, while the HMC is mounted in a convenient location for the operator. With the HMC optional I/O modules, local control…

The process of analyzing large collections of data to generate insights or define patterns that will improve the understanding of the system the data came from.
Maple Systems HMI and cMT series products have the capability for additional data storage via storage media plugged into a USB Host port or SD card socket. Supported are USB Flash Drives, SD Cards, and USB Hubs depending on the model. Check product data sheets for more information.
Ethernet is a family of computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), and wide area networks (WAN). It was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as IEEE 802.3, and has since been refined to support higher bit rates and longer link distances. Over time, Ethernet has largely replaced competing…
If using RW memory for the recipes, the number of recipes is limited by the amount of memory that is available, which is 524,287 registers. For example, if each recipe is comprised of 100 16-bit words, you could have up to 5242 recipes. If using the Recipe Database, you can have up to 100 recipes…
Yes. Our HMIs can be paired with our PLC products via Modbus RTU or TCP. The Modbus Slave driver is configured in the PLC software, and the Modbus Master driver is configured in HMI software (EBPro). Tags can be exported and imported in both directions.
If you experience difficulty downloading to an HMI+PLC (HMC) from MAPware-7000 with a Windows® 10 operating system, you may need to re-install the MAPware-7000 USB Drivers. The MAPware-7000 USB drivers are located in the folder: C:MapleSystemsMAPware7000USB Drivers. Refer to Tech Note 7017, “Reinstall MAPware-7000 USB Drivers” for full instructions on how to delete and reinstall…
