Chapter 6 – Using EZwarePlus
Overview
The EZwarePlus software is composed of a number of separate applications that are accessible from the
EZPlus folder, including EZwarePlus, Utility Manager, and EasyConverter. EZwarePlus is the application
software used to create a project file. Utility Manager is a utility application that puts the HMI into different
operating modes. EasyConverter changes certain binary files created by the HMI into text files.
By the end of this chapter, you should be quite familiar with the operation of EZwarePlus and Utility Manager
and be able to maneuver around the EZwarePlus programming software easily.
 EZwarePlus includes extensive online help. From any dialog box within the software, click on the HELP
button, or press the computer's F1 key.
 Projects created in EasyBuilder-5000 can be opened in EZwarePlus. The System Parameters window
will open on the Model tab so you can reassign the project to an HMI5000P/L model. If the screen
size of the selected HMI5000P/L model is different from the original project, the Resize pop-up
windows/objects dialog will open with options for resizing objects in the project.
 Projects created in EasyBuilder-500 can be converted to EZwarePlus using the Translate HMI500
Project selection under the Tools menu.
The Utility Manager
The Utility Manager is a launching pad for a number of EZware applications.
