2711P-B6C20A8

The Human Machine Interface (HMI) device with catalog number 2711P-B6C20A8 is part of Allen-Bradley’s PanelView Plus 6 Operator Terminals. This HMI device is used to integrate data from Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), data gateways or converters. Not only that is compatible with Allen-Bradley controllers, but it may also be used with 3rd party devices.

This operator terminal is powered by an external AC voltage supply with acceptable range of 85-264VAC along a frequency of 47-63Hz. It is typically installed flush mounted to an NEMA rated, UL Type rated, or IP rated enclosure. Ensure that the mounting surface is flat. Additionally, the enclosure may be installed with climate control devices such as a fan, cooling or heating device. It comes with a variety of communication interfaces such as Ethernet and RS232 while the USB communication port is used for connecting USB compatible devices such as a mouse, keyboard or USB drive. The Ethernet port may be used for networked architecture while the RS232 port is ideal for short distances and peer-to-peer connection as it supports DF1 and point to point DH485.

It comes with a 5.7 inch colored graphic display and combination input interface via the keypad assembly composed of 20 Function keys and a touch activated operator input area. The user is able to control the operator interface by utilizing the Keypad/Touchscreen to input information and data. This unit is powered using 100-240 VAC power. This unit has the following internal memory: 256 MB RAM and 512 MB Flash memory.

The approximate shipping weight and dimensions are 6 lbs. and 14 x 11 x 8 in. It has an EtherNet/IP (Ethernet Industrial Protocol) that supports real time I/O messaging, as well as message exchange. The Ethernet port connects to a controller on an EtherNet/IP network by using both the network and standard Ethernet connections. This port can work with application transfers and printing as well. The EtherNet/IP screen displays and allows the user to modify some of the EtherNet/IP communication settings for a PanelView terminal. The 2711P-RN20 Ethernet communication module is available for the 700 to 1500 terminals if another Ethernet port is required. The module has its own unique IP address. This port has an RJ45, 10/100Base-T connector for network communication and supports MDI/MDI-X connections. The parameters are downloaded with the application.
