Connection Parameters Needed for HMI/cMT Products to Communicate with a Koyo (Automation Direct) CLICK PLC using EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro)

Introduction

All Maple Systems HMIs programmed with EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro), including every cMT X Series and cMT Series model, are compatible with a Koyo (Automation Direct) CLICK PLC. Configure your Controller and HMI/cMT with the following parameters to establish reliable communication.

Supported Series: KOYO CLICK PLC series
