2711P-B6M20A8

The Allen-Bradley PanelView 6 Plus 2711P-B6M20A8 is an HMI that can allow the users to interact with their machines. The PanelView HMI has a 5.7-inch monochrome display. This unit is powered using 100 to 240 Volts AC power and it has an internal memory of 256 MB of RAM. Its weight and dimensions are 6 pounds and 14 x 11 x 8 inches, respectively. The most common series are Series A and Series B. This device is part of an open industrial network that supports real-time I/O messaging, as well as message exchange. This port can work with application transfers and for printing as well. The Allen-Bradley 2711P-RN20 Ethernet communication module is available for the Allen-Bradley 700 to 1500 terminals if another Ethernet port is required. The 2711P-B6M20A8 HMI makes it possible to allow the users to monitor, manage, and display application status information.

The PanelView Plus 6 terminals use modules that allow for flexible configuration, installation, and upgrades. The processor speed has increased from 350 MHz to 1 GHz compared to previous models. The screen transition rate is approximately 70% faster too. The system memory has increased from 64 MB of RAM to 256 MB of RAM and the flash storage space has increased from 64 MB to 512 MB compared to earlier models. The illumination of the backlight displays has increased. Also, it has greater connectivity to a variety of external hardware such as printers, mice, and keyboards. The users should plan for proper spacing around the HMI for ventilation and connections. The temperature around the 2711P-B6M20A8 HMI should range from 32 to 131 degrees Fahrenheit.

This operator terminal links industrial controllers and operators via the intuitive 5.7 display screen, a variety of communication interfaces specifically Ethernet for networked applications and RS232 for peer-to-peer connection. This operator terminal is typically installed in the factory floor, flush mounted to an enclosure rating of NEMA/UL Type 12, 13, 4X (indoor use only), and IEC IP66. This operator terminal comes with dual operator input interfaces via the embedded keypad which is composed of Ten (10) function keys and an analog resistive touchscreen, both expected to operate up to 1 million actuations.

Machine Edition version is compatible for operator terminals only while Site Edition is used for both operator terminals and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Aside from this embedded feature, this operator terminal also supports FTP, VNC access, and PDF files. This operator terminal is powered by a power supply of 100 to 240V AC with input frequency of 50 to 60 Hz.
