The 2711P-T12C4A8 is an operator interface with a human-machine interface (HMI) terminal. It is manufactured by Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation as part of the PanelView Plus 6 product line. The PanelView Plus 6 terminal has a display module 2711P-RDT12C, as well as a logic module 2711P-RDT12C that combines to make the terminal complete. The 2711P-T12C4A8 operator terminal uses RS-232 communication port and USB ports to connect with other devices and enhance easy programming through a Personal computer. It is also armed with EtherNet communication capability of 10 – 100 megabytes per second for enhanced network advantages. It has an input rating of 100 – 240 volts AC for its input voltage at 50 - 60 hertz of frequency with an apparent power rating of 65 volt-amps, peak at 160 volt-amps.
Allen-Bradley 2711P-T12C4A8 HMI weights approximately 7.0 pounds or 3.2 kilograms and measurements of 11.12 x 14.30 x 2.18 inches. It comes with an analog resistive touchscreen that has a 1-million-press actuation rate of 10 - 110 G. The operator can enter data and commands through the 12.1-inch active-matrix TFT touchscreen display with display area measuring 9.7 x 7.2-inch. The screen has a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels and 18-bit color graphics. Other features of the 2711P-T12C4A8 module include a luminance rating of 300 cd/m2 (Nits), and a non-replaceable terminal backlight of 50,000-hour standby time, with a battery-backed real-time clock (RTC) with a battery life of 4 years.

The 2711P-T12C4A8 is an operator terminal that belongs to the PanelView Plus 6 series of operator terminals. This operator terminal, as well as all of the other PanelView Plus 6 terminals, were produced by Allen-Bradley. This device is primarilty used as an interface between a machine and an operator. With a 12.1 inch display size, this terminal is equipped with a display capable of producing color and it even has a touch screen for input capabilities. This terminal has an available memory of 512 megabytes of RAM. Additionally, this terminal has 512 megabytes of flash memory, with approximately 79 megabytes of this memory used for free user memory. this Allen-Bradley product is powered using 100 - 240 volts AC (alternating current). The 2711P-T12C4A8 is equipped with an embedded RS-232 port, as well as an embedded Ethernet port for the communication purposes. This terminal is capable of communicating with not only a machine, but also other subjects involved within the overall system. This product is qualified for medium and relatively bigger applications due to the characteristics regarding its size and display.

It is important to know and practice all of the recommendations regarding environmental specifications as it can help keep the terminal working well and having a longer life. For this terminal, the temperature surrounding it when it is being operated should remain within the range of 32 to 131 °F. When this terminal is not being operated, however, the temperature surrounding it should remain within the range of -13 to 158 °F.
