Remote HMI = RMI. Maple Systems RMI model is “remote” in the fact that the monitoring/control element is physically separated from the display. The RMI model is an HMI with no display that converts any compatible TV or monitor into a Status Display Station in which the HMI data is displayed via an HDMI® cable.…
Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a graphical desktop sharing system that uses the Remote Frame Buffer protocol (RFB) to remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse events from one computer to another, relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction, over a network.
In Maple Systems cMT Series devices, LW/LB registers are shared local memory, while PLW/PLB registers are client-specific memory. Each client accessing a cMT device—locally or remotely—has its own independent PLW/PLB memory, meaning changes are only visible on that client. In contrast, LW/LB memory is shared across all clients, so changes appear on every connected display.
