2711-T6C1L1

The Allen-Bradley 2711-T6C1L1 module is a human-machine interface module that enables users to review and revise application processes and at the same time check all the application’s particularities. This module belongs to the PanelView 600 series by Allen-Bradley (a Rockwell Automation Company). PanelView modules are widely used in application processes that require constant monitoring of the status and condition of the different equipment involved and connected to this network. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 2711-T6C1L1 human-machine interface module needs to be installed in a clean environment where will not be in contact with harsh weather conditions and ultraviolet rays that could diminish its life. It can withstand a temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius, a relative humidity range of 5 to 95% and a maximum altitude of 2000 meters. It is important to note that the Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 2711-T6C1L1 human-machine interface module comes with different ports in order to perform data transfer between different units and it needs to be installed and programmed properly. The use of human-machine interface modules in different parts of the process help the supervisors improve their applications. It is also important to recall that this device comes with a real-time clock and alarms that indicate whether there has been a failure in the process or whether an error is about to occur. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 2711-T6C1L1 human-machine interface module comes with a touchscreen that makes the input data mechanism easy. This touchscreen makes the device more fragile, but at the same time, the process of modifying and entering data will be easier.

The 2711-T6C1L1 is part of the PanelView 600 operator terminal that is generally referred to as a Human Machine Interface (HMI) in most industries. With the 6-inch colored display screen, this operator terminal permits monitoring of the process with higher level of information. The touch input interface allows the operator to input commands and modification of variables as well as input navigation commands and interact with process alarms and events. By default, this operator terminal supports the legacy Remote I/O (RIO) protocol which supports communication with one or more controllers over long distances with high transmission rate. This protocol uses the Allen-Bradley 1770-CD cable or the Belden 9463 cable. It also has a secondary port which is the RS232 interface port, exclusively used for communication with printers for documentation of alarms and events.
