2711P-K4M20D8

The Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus 6 operator terminal with part number 2711P-K4M20D8 is a visualization component that provides monitoring and control interface to the connected machine or process. The 2711P-K4M20D8 is specifically part of the PanelView Plus 6 400 operator terminal featuring a 3.5-inch, monochrome screen, Eight (8) function keys from F1 to F8, navigation and numeric keys. This operator terminal is a DC powered device with acceptable supply range of 18-32VDC with nominal value of 24VDC.

In most industries, the 2711P-K4M20D8 or any PanelView operator terminal is referred to as a Human Machine Interface (HMI). It provides monitoring and control centralization in the factory floor, by integrating one or more controller by utilizing the any or both the RS232 and Ethernet interfaces. Use the RS232 interface for short distance communication using DH485 or DF1 protocol. This interface may only be used for peer-to-peer connection typically, within the panel communication. The Ethernet communication interface is used for networked connection and may be used for longer distance communication exchange, typically 100 meters. The covered distance may be increased with the addition of ethernet switch or fiber optic medium. Both these interfaces may be used for simultaneous communications.

It also enables File Transfer Protocol (FTP), VNC access, and pdf file compatibility.

The 2711P-K4M20D8 measures 152 x 185 x 90 mm (6.0 x 7.28 x 3.54 in.). It is flush mounted to an enclosure NEMA rated, UL rated or IP rated enclosure. Maintain mounting clearances of 51 mm (top), 102 mm (bottom), 25mm (side) and 0 mm (back).

The EtherNet/IP (Ethernet Industrial Protocol) is an open industrial network 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 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.
