Introduction

Welcome

Welcome to the Maple Systems' OMI5000 Series of Open HMIs. This powerful family of Open HMIs can
be configured with Windows CE compatible HMI software, such as WebStudio, to connect to
programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and motion controllers to provide the human-machine interface in
industrial applications. This manual explains the operation of the OMI5000 Series. For information
concerning the installation of the OMI5000 series HMI, please consult the OMI5000 Series Installation
Guide that is included with each unit.
