The Rockwell 2711-K5A8 is featured in the PanelView Standard line of industrial terminals. The model allows the operator to exploit its functionalities using a set of buttons with 10 function keys ranging from F1 to F10 which could be set up for many different user functions. The Rockwell 2711-K5A8 has a 4.72 x 2.36 inches monochromatic LCD screen. The engineer has to leave enough space within the case of the terminal in order to achieve proper ventilation. The allowed temperature for the panel goes from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. The operator should allow a way to the back of the terminal to perform troubleshooting, maintenance and wiring functions properly. The module must be placed in environments admitted by IEC-1131-2 pollution protection which means that only non-conductive pollution can present itself. The panel provides the user a DH+ port to interact with Programmable Logic Controllers or other equipment. To effectively illuminate the screen, the module uses an internal backlight, whose nominal lifetime of 100,000 hours of use. The device has to mounted no higher than 2000 meters to be able to work correctly. The panel can be configured in 5 different languages: French, English, German Spanish and Chinese. Download of the application to the terminal can be carried out over the network providing a direct link. The terminal can withstand vibrations under 2 g at 2000 hertz.

The 2711-K5A8 is a Human Machine Interface (HMI) component for industrial automation. This component uses the integrated Data Highway Plus (DH+) protocol to establish an active connection to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC), gateways, and converters in order to capture register data and bit status, as well as any part of the user program. The 5.5-inch monochrome display shows the data that was collected. A backlight component with a 100,000-hour anticipated runtime is put on the screen. The integrated keypad, which includes ten (10) function keys, numeric input, navigation, and cursor control keys, allows the operator to respond appropriately. It enables offline configuration and project testing, resulting in a speedier commissioning process. for an industrially authorized installation and to extend the unit's lifespan, install the hardware in a NEMA Type 12/13 or 4X (only for indoor use), IP54, IP65, or any comparably rated enclosure. using the template that came with the terminal, you can create a panel cut-out and flush attach the hardware onto the panel. External protection devices, such as surge suppressors, transformers, Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), and other devices, may be placed in addition to the internal circuit protection. The rated power supply input range for the 2711-K5A8 is 85-264V AC at 47-63 Hz. The Operator terminal has a 170KB built-in Random Access Memory (RAM) and a 240KB non-volatile memory that may be expanded.
