The 92-00657-01 operator interface terminal is a dedicated electronic operator interface device by Eaton Cutler-Hammer that is designed to provide visual control to a PLC machine control systems. The PanelMate series 2000 terminals are more cost-effective, flexible, easy-to-use, and fully expandable than conventional hardwired control devices like push buttons, lights, and gauges, and they help to reduce hardwiring costs, save configuration time, and give the operators more operational information for better control and monitor application processes. The 92-00657-01 terminal has an electronic module with an auto-sensing voltage rating of 120 to 230 Volts AC (at 47 to 63 Hertz), and a rated power output of 55 Watts. It has a continuous current rating of 0.8 Amps, and a peak inrush current rating of 16 Amps. The 92-00657-01 terminal provides a visual interface via its 256-level grayscale display screen with a 640 x 480 pixels monochrome screen resolution and a scan frequency of 31.5 KiloHertz.

The 92-00657-01 terminal and all PanelMate 2000 series terminals have manual display adjustment options which are located on the back of the display module, and the screen brightness and contrast can be fully adjusted by using a Philips head screwdriver. It comes with a 1 MB flash memory for program storage, fonts, and messages, and it has a battery-backed real-time internal clock with up to 10 years of lifespan. The 92-00657-01 terminal has 2 integral RS-232/RS-422 serial ports with selectable baud rates for printer connections and PLC communication, and it supports direct connection to the GE Fanuc Genius I/O network, Allen-Bradley Remote I/O and Data Highway network, DeviceNet network, and the PROFIBUS network for wide communication capabilities. It is designed for NEMA Type 4 and 12 enclosures, and it has an operating ambient temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. The 92-00657-01 terminal has an approximate weight of 23 pounds and total dimensions of 24 x 20 x 12 inches.
