The 2711P-T6M20A is a PanelView Plus 600 operator terminal that is manufactured by Allen-Bradley and belongs to the Visualization components product catalog. This electronic device is more popularly termed a Human Machine Interface (HMI) that comes with a visualization component, communication port, and control interface to allow users and plant operators to monitor and control the process in real-time. The 2711P-T6M20A is designed for flush mounting to the enclosure door or to a flat surface such as a console where users can easily access the control features and view the runtime display of the HMI. Appropriate enclosure for this device is rated NEMA Type 12, 13, 4X (Indoor use only), IP54, and IP65. Vibration and shock must not exceed 10…57 Hz, 0.012 pk-pk displacements or 57…500 Hz, 2 g pk acceleration, and 15 g at 11 ms, respectively. In addition, this device must be installed in an environment with a temperature range of 0…55 °C (32…131 °F). The 2711P-T6M20A comes with a Grayscale passive matrix, film compensated super-twist nematic (FSTN) measuring 5.5-inches with a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. This display component is embedded with touch-sensitive cells that form the touchscreen interface of the terminal. This touchscreen component has an actuating lifespan of up to 1 million presses at an actuation force of 10-110 g. The available communication interface to this module is RS232 for point-to-point communication and Ethernet for networked and multi-node communication. USB ports are also available to this terminal for attachment of USB, Mouse, Printer, Keyboard, and removable flash drives.

The 2711P-T6M20A terminal is a PanelView terminal from Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation. It supports a 5.5-inch touch-enabled grayscale display. For communication purposes, the 2711P-T6M20A terminal has an Ethernet, RS-232 port, and USB port. Note that the terminal is AC-powered. The terminal has a resolution of 320 x 240, a brightness of 440 Nits, and a white non-replaceable white LED backlight. For its touchscreen, the terminal uses a 4-wire analog resistive touchscreen that has an actuation of one million presses, and an operating force of between 10 and 110 G. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 2711P-T6M20A terminal has battery-backed clock timestamps for critical data with an accuracy of +/- 2 minutes per month. Note that when the battery’s ambient temperature is maintained at 25 degrees Celsius, it can last for a minimum of 4 years. The battery is a coin-cell lithium battery that is field-replaceable. The 2711P-T6M20A terminal weighs approximately 594 grams and has a typical power consumption rating of 20 Volts-Amps and maximum power consumption of 3 Volts-Amps.
