Maple Systems HMI models with built-in Wi-Fi can connect to a phone’s broadcast Wi-Fi Hotspot feature by enabling the Hotspot feature on your phone and entering the Wi-Fi network information from your phone into the HMI’s Wi-Fi network tab.

Models without built-in Wi-Fi can also use your Android phone’s internet connection via USB tethering. You must enable USB tethering on your phone, and then enable the connection with system registers in the HMI.

See our “USB Tethering” Sample Project for more information
