Installation of HMIs
CE Compliance
The HMI5000HD has been tested to conform to European CE
requirements, which meet or exceed the noise emissions and immunity
requirements as set forth in the EN55022 (Emissions) and EN55024
(Immunity) standards. The products are designed to withstand electrical
noise in harsh industrial environments. They also conform to
requirements that limit electrical emissions. However, this does not
guarantee that the products will be totally immune from possible
malfunction in cases where severe electrical noise occurs. Therefore, we
strongly recommend that you follow the guidelines outlined in this guide
for proper wire routing and grounding to insure the proper operation of
your unit.
1010-1019 Rev 01 www.maplesystems.com
4 HMI5000HD Installation Guide
Environmental Considerations
The HMI5000HD is designed to be mounted inside an enclosure rated
for the installation.
The HMI5000HD operates in temperatures from -20° to 55°C (-4° to
131°F). It is intended for indoor installations and may not be suitable for
use in certain outdoor applications. Avoid installing the HMI5000HDin
environments with severe mechanical vibration or shocks. Do not install
the HMI in enclosures with rapid temperature variations or high
humidity. Either case will cause condensation of water inside the device
and eventual damage to the HMI.
Safety Precautions
Please observe the following precautions when installing the HMI.
Failure to comply with these restrictions could result in loss of life,
serious personal injury, or equipment damage.
Warning: Do not operate the HMI in areas subject to explosion due to
flammable gases, vapors, or dusts.
Warning: Do not connect the HMI to an AC power source. You will
cause permanent damage to the HMI.
Warning: Do not attempt to use a DC power supply that does not meet
HMI power requirements. You may cause malfunction or permanent
damage to the HMI.
Warning: Do not power the HMI with a DC power supply used for
inductive loads or for input circuitry to the programmablelogic
controller. Severe voltage spikes caused by these devices maydamage
the HMI.
Control Panel Design Guidelines
Pay careful attention to the placement of system components and
associated cable routing. These items can significantly enhance the
performance and integrity of your control application.

Figure 1: Typical Panel Layout
Control Panel Grounding
The control panel must be connected to a good, high-integrity earth
ground both for safety considerations and shielding purposes. Maple
Systems cannot overemphasize the importance of good grounding. If you
fail to use good grounding procedures during installation, sporadic
malfunction of the HMI may occur:
Connect the HMIs chassis ground terminal to a reliable earth ground
with a low-resistance path.
Route all earth ground wires that lead from the HMI, the PLC, the power
supply, and the line filter to a central earth ground point such as a barrier
strip. This will ensure that no ground current from one device influences
the operation of the other devices.
Connect the HMI chassis ground terminal to the control panel door using
a heavy-gauge short braided cable or ground wire to minimize resistance.
1010-1019 Rev 01 www.maplesystems.com
6 HMI5000HD Installation Guide
Connect the power cable’s shield wire to the HMI’s chassis ground terminal.
Connect the control panel to earth ground using a copper grounding rod
close to the HMI and control panel.
Hinged doors on control panels do not provide a long-term electrical
connection to the rest of the enclosure. Corrosion develops over time and
prevents good electrical contact. For this reason, a separate wire braid
should be installed from the hinged control panel to the rest of the
enclosure.
For a more in-depth overview of ground wiring techniques, refer to
Technical Note #1027, “OIT Ground Wiring and Electrical Noise
Reduction,” which you can find in the Tech Notes section on our web site.
Connect HMI Chassis Ground to Control Panel
To reduce the possibility of electrical interference, connect the chassis
ground terminal of the HMI to a clean earth ground. If the control panel
is metal, make sure it is properly grounded. Then connect a short heavygauge wire (#14 AWG) from the chassis ground terminal of the HMI to a
mounting bolt on the control panel door. The mounting bolt must have
good electrical contact to the control panel; scrape away any paint that
may be covering the panel to provide a good connection.
NOTE: If the control panel is made of a non-conductive material, it is
essential that you connect the chassis ground terminal of the HMI to a
clean earth ground point located close to the panel.

Power Supply Selection
The power supply used to power the HMI should provide an output of
+24 VDC ±20% measured at the HMI power terminal block. A 24VDC
regulated power supply dedicated to the HMI is recommended. Use a
power supply with adequate current rating based upon your particular
model (visit the Support Center Specifications page on our website).
A power line filter installed at the AC input to the HMI power supply is
highly recommended as a safeguard against conducted RF noise, which
is often present on factory power lines. The wires connecting the output
of the power line filter to the power supply should be kept as short as
possible to minimize any additional noise pickup. The case of the power
line filter should be connected to a quiet earth ground. The power line
filter should have a current rating of at least 3 Amps with common mode
and differential mode attenuation. In applications that may have high
frequency noise present, we also recommend using a resistor (~1 MΩ)
and capacitor (~4700 pF) in parallel to clean earth ground on the DC
output of the power supply.
Do not use the power supply used to provide power to the HMI to power
switching relays, solenoids, or other active devices.

Cable Routing and Noise Immunity
Follow these guidelines when routing cables to the HMI:
Always route the HMI communication cable and the power cable
away from any AC voltage or rapidly switching DC control
lines.
Never bundle the HMI cables together with 120VAC power
wires or with relay wiring.
Try to keep at least 8 inches (20 cm) of separation between the
HMI cables and other power wiring. If voltages greater than
120VAC are used in the system, greater separation is required.
If the HMI cables must come near AC wiring, make sure they
cross at 90 degrees.
Run AC power wires in a separate grounded conduit to reduce
electrical noise interference.
Keep the cable lengths for the HMI as short as possible. Do not
coil excess cable and place it next to AC powered equipment.
Cover any equipment used in the enclosure that operates at high
frequency or high current levels with a grounded metal shield.
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 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

10 HMI5000HD Installation Guide
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.
