What is JavaScript?
JavaScript is a computer programming language developed in 1995 by Brendan Eich. JavaScript is utilized in web developed along side industrial control systems such as EasyBuiler Pro for automation.
What is the String Table?
The string table in EasyBuilder Pro is a centralized database for managing multilingual text used in HMI projects. By pre-configuring texts and their corresponding numbers in the string table, text can be changed dynamically on the HMI. This feature simplifies creating multilingual interfaces by linking text objects directly to the string table. String tables are…
What is the Label Tag Library?
The Label Tag Library in EasyBuilder Pro enables the creation of a multi-language environment for HMI projects. Users can create a Label Tag Library and select suitable labels for use throughout the project. At runtime, the project dynamically displays the corresponding language based on predefined settings. This feature supports up to 24 languages simultaneously, making…
What is a Register-Address?
A register address in EasyBuilder Pro refers to a specific memory location used to store and manage data within a system. A register is a specific storage location, typically in memory or a device, used to hold data for processing. They often are categorized as internal or external registers. An address is a unique identifier…
What is XML?
XML stands for Extensible Markup Language and its a way to store information in a tree structure with tags and elements. XML Data is stored inside tags, and each tag can have attributes or nested tags that contain values. For example our OPC UA Client XML file structure has a main tag of UaClientConfig. UaClientConfig…
HTML5
HTML5 is the latest version of HTML (Hypertext Markup Language). It is used to build websites and web applications. HTML5 makes it easier to create interactive, and responsive web pages that work across different devices and browsers. HMIs and PLCs may interact with HTML5 web servers through network communication protocols such as HTTP/HTTPS. These devices…
What is a WORD?
In EasyBuilder Pro, a WORD refers to the size of the data type configured for the system. This is the standard size used to store data in registers and memory locations within the system. Our LW, PLW, RW, RW_A, EM0-15, RECIPE, RWI, PRW registers store WORDs into addresses. Naming rules for variables inside the Macro…
Why do I get a “HIGH CPU LOAD>95%” warning on my HMI or cMT device?
In the default project file templates for EasyBuilder Pro, there is an object that displays a visible warning that reads “HIGH CPU LOAD>95%” when the CPU utilization of the device exceeds a certain threshold. This warning is controlled by a System Register at LB-12360. It is triggered when the device’s CPU utilization surpasses 95% for…
Can the Maple Systems HMI and cMT series use OAuth2 to access Microsoft Office 365 or Exchange as an email server for sending emails?
In September of 2019, Microsoft announced plans to support OAuth2 authentication and deprecate Basic Authentication across several services/products. These changes took effect for Microsoft Exchange and Office 365 mail servers in September of 2024. As a result, it is currently no longer possible for the HMI and cMT series of devices to use these services…
What is a UDP Port?
A UDP port is a communication endpoint for transmitting data between devices on a network using the UDP protocol. On Maple Systems products, UDP ports enable fast, connectionless communication for applications like broadcast messaging or time-sensitive data transfers. Each port is identified by a unique number, ensuring multiple applications can operate without interference. Commonly used…
What is a TCP Port
A TCP port is a communication endpoint for transmitting data between devices on a network using the TCP protocol. On Maple Systems products, TCP ports facilitate connections between HMIs, PLCs, and other networked devices for data exchange and control. Each port is identified by a unique number, allowing multiple applications to run simultaneously on the…
What is a Client?
In a Server-Client topology, a client is a device or application that requests and utilizes services or resources provided by a server. The client initiates communication with the server, sending requests for data, processing, or specific functionalities. HMI as Client: In some configurations, such as OPC UA or MQTT, the HMI might act as the…
