APPENDIX E
Slide-in Legend Templates
Some of the OIT Family Operator Interface Terminals contain clear windows that allow
you to insert your own legends to customize the text, colors and graphics of certain keys.
In some models you can also add your own logo or model identification. These legends
can be inexpensively made and are environmentally sealed when installed.
The slide-in legends can be made on any non-glossy stock between 0.004 inches
[0.1 mm] and 0.008 inches [0.2 mm] thick by using either of the following methods:
• Photocopy a blank legend and hand illustrate. Refer to the “Blank Legends for
Photocopying” section.
• Use the dimensions to create a computer generated legend. Refer to the “Dimensions for
Computer Generated Legends” section.
• Use our Legend Generator Software to create a computer generated legend. Available for
our website at www.maple-systems.com/tech.htm
Refer to the Installation Manual shipped with your OIT for instructions on installing the
slide-in legends.
