Installation
It is necessary to follow all installation procedures described in this
chapter for electrical noise immunity and CE compliance.
Your Maple Systems HMI is designed to connect easily to your PLC.
External rear connectors provide quick connections for power,
communications and programming wiring.
Connect the HMI to Power
Use the separate 3-position terminal block supplied with the HMI to
provide power to the HMI.
The power cable for the HMI should be 18AWG, 2-conductor wire with
a shield drain wire and protective shield (foil/braid). You may buy cable
P/N 6030-0009 by the foot from Maple Systems to make your own
power cable.
Always run the DC ground wire directly back to the signal return of the
power supply. Do not use the chassis ground wire as your signal return.
Caution: To prevent possible damage to the HMI, we
recommend waiting ten seconds after removing power to the
HMI before applying power again.
