Alas, Your HMI520 Needs Upgrading

 
The HMI520’s (C/M/T/TE) were originally sold from 2001-2009. These popular 5.6” models proved to be a best seller for Maple Systems. Our current HMI series include different 7” touch screen models that fit in the same panel cut-out. Let us steer you through the upgrade process.
Before you start down any upgrade path, first determine whether you have a copy of the existing project, or, if not, whether you can extract the project from the existing HMI520. You may need to contact the OEM or System Integrator that originally created the project for assistance with this step. The cable needed to extract the program from the HMI is P/N 7431-0098A and is available by contacting our sales department. Please allow two days to build this custom cable.

Once you have the project, you will need to convert the it from EZware-500 to EBPro. We have a Tech Note to walk you through the process. If you are unable to obtain a copy of the project, you will need to re-create your project in EBPro.

All of our software is available for free. Download the latest version on our Support Center.

Select New Hardware

Now that you have converted your project into EBPro, it’s time to select a new HMI. Because any of our 7” models will fit into your existing cut-out, selecting a new HMI is easy. Refer to our HMI Overveiw page or our Compare Models table for more information of available HMI models.
