Chapter 1 – Introduction
Welcome
Welcome to the Maple Systems’ HMI5000 Series Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs). Using graphic HMIs has never
been easier. This powerful family of graphic HMIs connects to programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to provide the
human-machine interface in industrial applications. The HMI5000 Series has several features not found in other
graphic HMIs. This manual explains the programming and operation of the HMI5000 Series HMIs and how to
implement the many available features using the EZware-5000 Configuration Software.
