PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The Allen-Bradley 2711P-K6C20A8 is a PanelView Plus 600 Color Keypad/Touch Screen in the PanelView series. This microprocessor-based operator terminal delivers real-time visualization and machine control for industrial automation processes. The unit features a 5.7-inch color display supporting a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. It renders graphics using an 18-bit color palette with a typical brightness of 320 nits. Operators enter commands through an integrated keypad interface equipped with ten function keys. The keypad assembly also includes navigation, alphanumeric, confirmation, and cancel keys.
The terminal operates on an AC line input from 100 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Internal system resources include 256 MB of RAM alongside 512 MB of non-volatile memory. An integrated RJ45 Ethernet port supports EtherNet/IP communications at 10/100 Mbps with auto-negotiation. The device also features an RS-232 serial interface for point-to-point data communication. A battery-backed real-time clock timestamps critical process data and supports scheduled operations.
