To connect your PLC to the OIT
1. Maple Systems produces PLC communications cables, which will connect the OIT to most of
the PLCs available. The cables can be manufactured to any length you may require. A listing
of all the PLC cables Maple Systems offers can be found on our website.
2. If you have decided to make your own cable, make sure that it is wired correctly for your
particular PLC. Maple Systems provides cable wiring diagrams to guide you through the
construction of your cable. These can also be found on our website.
3. Connect the PLC communications cable from the serial port on your PLC to the appropriate
serial port on your OIT.
• If you are us ing RS-232 com mu ni ca tions, then con nect the OIT end of the ca ble to the OIT
port la beled PLC[RS-232] .
• If you are using RS-485 communications, then connect the OIT end of the cable to the OIT
port labeled PLC[RS-485] . If you wish to use the Y-adapter programming cable, then
connect to the cable end that is marked PLC .
4. Apply power to the PLC. The Silver Series OIT is programmed at the factory with a sample
demo that shows some features of the OIT. The OIT should display a sample startup screen.
The OIT will now accept a new project from EZware-500.

three main applications:
· EasyBuilder – used to create the project downloaded to the OIT.
· EasyManager - used to place the OIT into different operating modes.
