Allen-Bradley 2711P-T10C4D9 PanelView Plus 6 Compact Terminal

Allen-Bradley 2711P-T10C4D9 PanelView Plus 6 Compact Terminal Configured for touchscreen operator interaction and HMI data exchange in PanelView Plus 6 systems, the Allen-Bradley 2711P-T10C4D9 (2711P-T10C4D9 PanelView Plus 1000) provides color TFT visualization with Ethernet and RS-232 communications. Hardware Specifications Parameter Specification Model 2711P-T10C4D9 Brand Allen-Bradley Product Type Operator Terminal Product Line PanelView Plus 6 Product Family PanelView Plus 6 Compact Terminals Product Category PanelView Plus 6 1000 Series A and B Display Type Color active-matrix TFT Display Size 10.4 in Display Area 211 x 158 mm Resolution 640 x 480 pixels Operator Input Touchscreen Input Lifespan 1 million actuations Backlight CCFL, 50,000 hours minimum at 25 deg C, field replaceable Internal Memory 512 MB RAM; 512 MB non-volatile memory Integrated Ports Ethernet, RS-232, 1 USB host Communication Ethernet and RS-232 Input Voltage 18-32 VDC Weight 6 lbs Communication Cable 2711-NC13 operator interface cable Operating System Windows CE 6 Extended UPC 885630004204 PanelView Plus 6 Communication and Display Architecture The 10.4 in active-matrix TFT display provides 640 x 480 pixel visualization through a touchscreen operator interface. Ethernet and RS-232 ports support communication with external control and supervisory equipment, while the supplied specification identifies one USB host port. The input interface is specified for 1 million touch actuations. Memory includes 512 MB RAM and 512 MB non-volatile storage. Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus platforms use networked HMI communication for controller data exchange. Ethernet wiring should remain separated from high-current conductors, motor cables, and switching power circuits where practical. RS-232 connections should use appropriate shielded cabling and maintain the specified interface wiring arrangement. The supplied technical data contains conflicting power descriptions: the introductory text states 85-264 VAC, while the detailed specification and feature list state 18-32 VDC and 24 VDC input. The detailed electrical specification should therefore be verified against the terminal nameplate and applicable Allen-Bradley documentation before energization. Frequently Asked Questions Q: What display hardware is specified for the 2711P-T10C4D9? A: The terminal uses a 10.4 in color active-matrix TFT display with 640 x 480 pixel resolution and touchscreen input. Q: Which communication interfaces are specified for this terminal? A: The supplied data identifies Ethernet, RS-232, and one USB host interface for external device communication. Q: What supply voltage should be verified during installation? A: The detailed specification identifies 18-32 VDC, while the introductory source states 85-264 VAC; verify the actual terminal nameplate before connection. Field Installation Guidelines Install the terminal in a panel cutout that provides adequate clearance for the specified display assembly and rear connections. Verify the terminal nameplate, wiring documentation, and supply specification before applying power because the supplied source contains conflicting voltage information. Use a correctly rated DC supply if the installed unit is confirmed as the 18-32 VDC configuration. Route Ethernet, RS-232, and USB-related wiring away from motor conductors, contactor wiring, and high-current switching paths. Terminate cable shields according to the installed control system grounding scheme and avoid creating unintended ground loops. Provide strain relief for communication cables so connector bodies do not carry mechanical cable loads. Maintain ventilation around the rear terminal assembly and prevent conductive debris from entering openings or connectors. Before commissioning, verify touchscreen operation, Ethernet link status, RS-232 wiring, USB host operation, and controller communication.
