Introduction
Welcome to the Maple Systems' Silver Series Operator Interface Terminals (OITs) from Watlow. Using graphic OITs has
never been easier. This powerful family of graphics operator interface terminals connect to Watlow controllers and other
devices such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to provide the human-machine interface in industrial applications.
The Silver Series has several features not found in other graphic OITs. This manual explains the operation of the Silver
Series OITs and how to implement the many available features using the EZware-5000 Configuration Software.
Watlow and Maple Systems have worked together to bring you this product. Please contact Watlow for support, and be sure
