Configuration Wiring
To install application software and upload/download files on your OMI,
you may wish to connect your computer to the Open HMI. Connection
can be done via the serial port, USB port, or the Ethernet port.
USB
To transfer files via the USB client port on the OMI, you must purchase
a USB download cable (Maple P/N 7431-0015). You must also install a
USB device driver onto your computer that supports connection to the
OMI. The device driver is available online in the Drivers and Tools
section of the Support Center on the Maple Systems website. Please
follow the instructions located in the OMI5000 Operations Manual
(Maple P/N 1010-1012 also available on the website) to install the USB
driver onto your computer.
Ethernet
To connect your OMI to your computer via the10/100 Base-T Ethernet
port requires a standard Ethernet crossover cable (Maple P/N 7431-
0104). If you use a switch or router between the computer and the OMI,
use a straight-thru cable (Maple P/N 7431-0103).
Once a connection is made, you will need to install a data
synchronization program such as Microsoft's ActiveSync onto your
computer. ActiveSync provides the ability to manually transfer files to
the OMI5000 or to download application software. ActiveSync is
available from Microsoft's support website for mobile applications.
