The Allen-Bradley 2711-K10G3 user-controlled electronic terminal can be used for a massive variety of industrial applications. This device is highly robust and improves the efficacy of the control system. The degree of interaction between the panel and the components that constitute the rest of the system can be determined based on the context of the industrial application. A versatile keypad enables the user to enter a variety of numerical characters into the system as a source of input. The device has a total application flash memory of 1008 kilobytes and can be temporarily used to save files generated by the control system. In order to accentuate the storage capabilities of the terminal package, an additional external memory card can also be used. The memory card improves the storage capability of the operator panel and can be used to save and transfer files. The 2711-K10G3 is housed in a NEMA Type 12/13 Enclosure that is designed to ensure adequate space for ventilation and ease of maintenance. Clearances are provided within the enclosure to facilitate the mounting and assembly of components within the enclosure. A memory card slot is provided to house the memory card and a back clearance must be provided within the enclosure to ensure that the memory card is accessible to the user. The device can communicate with machine components over a configured DH-485 network. Status indicators are provided with the terminal package to facilitate troubleshooting. The COMM status indicator is used to indicate successful active communication and uses a flashing green light. A fault indicator is used to highlight issues with the communication network and uses a blinking red light.

Part number 2711-K10G3 is an operator terminal that was designed and manufactured by the company known as Allen-Bradley.This device utilizes a keypad as its main interface to input data, information, and commands. It belongs to the PanelView standard terminals from Allen-Bradley. The display comes with several advanced technologies, including an active matrix thin-film transistor (TFT). Another technology included with this terminal is cold cathode fluorescent (CCF) backlight. It supports 4 shades of gray. This operator terminal is capable of displaying a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. 

The keypad on this operator terminal comes with several numeric, alphabetic, and cursor keys. There are also 16 different functional keys on this operator terminal. The LED backlight has a lifespan of 100,000 hours straight. Such operator terminals require sufficient application memory for fast, and efficient processing of data. The biggest factor that determines whether an operator terminal will be fast or not is its application memory. 

There are several communication ports on this operator terminal. There is the DH-485 port for the sole purpose of communication. Additionally, there is the RS232 port for connecting various machines and applications. The optimal operating temperature is 0 - 55 degrees Celsius. On the other hand, the optimal operating temperature is 32 - 131 degrees Fahrenheit. The power consumption rating on this module is 55 volts amperes. This device allocates 256 kilobytes of dedicated memory for other applications and processing. For protection against external factors, this operator terminal comes with a NEMA Type enclosure. It also requires 12/13 or 4X.
