EZwarePlus Programming Manual

Downloading your first project

First, connect a +24 VDC power supply to the HMI. Refer to the HMI5000P/L/HD Installation Guide for more

information.

In order to download your project, you must first connect the HMI to your computer. There are two methods of

downloading to the HMI, Ethernet or USB.

Configuration Wiring

Ethernet Crossover Configuration Cable: P/N 7431-0104

USB Configuration Cable: P/N 7431-0115

Ethernet

It is necessary to determine the IP Address of the HMI. By default, the HMI is configured to get a dynamic IP address

from a DHCP server. This setting can be changed. To determine or change the HMI’s IP address:

1. Connect the HMI to your computer using an Ethernet crossover cable (7431-0104).

2. Touch the arrow in the lower right corner of the HMI screen. A menu bar will appear. Touch the gear icon on

the menu bar.

3. Enter the System Settings password (default password is 111111).

4. On the Network tab of the System Settings dialog, the HMI’s IP address will be shown. If set for Obtain an IP

Address Automatically, the HMI’s current IP setup information is displayed but is not changeable. To change

the IP address, select IP Address Get From Below and enter the data.

5. Once the IP Address has been established, the project can be downloaded. Select Tools > Download from

the EZwarePlus menu (or click the Download icon).

6. Enter the HMI’s IP address (or optionally the HMI name). The default download password is 111111.

Note: The computer’s Ethernet port IP address should have the same Subnet Mask as the HMI’s IP address,

usually 255.255.255.0. Therefore, the first three octets of the IP address should be the same for both

devices.

7. Make sure that the Ethernet, Firmware, and Reboot HMI After Download boxes are checked.

8. Click the Download button. If the HMI is properly connected to the PC, the status box on the download

dialog will update with messages indicating the progress of the transfer. The HMI itself will also display

messages reflecting its status.

9. When the download is complete, the HMI will restart and will begin running your project. Click the Exit

button on the Download dialog.

USB (HMI5070P, 5121P, 5150P Only)

1. Make sure the USB driver has been installed on your computer. See the Help menu “How Do I…Install the

Maple Systems USB Driver” for more information.

2. Connect the HMI to your computer using the USB configuration cable (PN 7431-0115).

3. Select Tools > Download from the EZwarePlus menu (or click the Download icon).

4. Make sure that the USB, Firmware, and Reboot HMI After Download boxes are checked.
