The Allen-Bradley 2711P-RP8D is a logic module manufactured by Rockwell automation and belonging to the Panelview Plus 6 series of Human Interface devices. The 2711P-RP8D only supports Panelview terminals without extended features. The 2711P-RP8D is an input module with a voltage rating of 24 Volts DC and a total of 1 gigabyte of onboard memory. This memory breakdown is comprised of 512 megabytes of non-volatile storage memory (primarily for applications and data), along with volatile Random Access Memory (RAM) of 512 megabytes for application processing.

A qualified operator or developer can program the 2711P-RP8D logic module via a desktop or laptop computer. These machines can interface together by way of the RS-232 serial communication port. The 2711P-RP8D can also interface with a variety of other devices by the same connection method. The 2711P-RP8D logic module can also make use of Ethernet communication standard. This granced expanded network capabilities and ability to interface with devices such as other PanelView Plus 6 terminal devices. Like all devices within this line, the 2711P-RP8D logic module has a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable for transferring data or applications between the Panelview Plus 6 device and a suitable desktop, laptop, or handheld computer. The Factory Talk View machine edition station is included in a keyless format (that is, requiring no product keys for activationor usage).

The Allen Bradley 2711P-RP8D logic module is part of the PanelView Plus 6 series. It only supports PanelView terminals with no additional functionality. It is a 24 volts DC input module with 512 MB of application and data memory. It also includes 512 MB of volatile memory for processing applications. A computer can program the module through the RS-232 serial link interface. Other devices can be connected to the 2711P-RP8D logic module through the same port. The module also uses the Ethernet protocol for enhanced network functionality and the 2711P-RP8D, like other PanelView Plus 6 terminals, uses a standard Ethernet connection for applications and data transfers between a computer and the PanelView Plus 6 terminal. This logic module replaces the existing logic module in a working operator terminal. This logic module allows FTP, VNC access, and viewing of PDF files, which is useful for opening manuals and reports. The 2711P-RP8D is powered by an external 24 volts DC supply and has a power dissipation of 70 watts. It mounts behind the display module and communicates with it via the built-in PCI slot. The USB ports on this module are specially designed for installing external peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse, printer, and external storage media. The module is a replacement component and does not come with an enclosure and hence does not offer any kind of protection against harsh industrial environments. The manufacturer recommends keeping the terminal in a well-protected area to prevent damage to the hardware or to affect the performance of the device.
