The Allen-Bradley 2711-T5A15L1 PanelView monochrome terminal has a 5.5-inches liquid crystal blue mode display (LCD) which has a resolution of 256 x 128 pixels. This PanelView monochrome terminal operates with the touch screen in which each screen object can occupy 128 touch cells. The 2711-T5A15L1 terminal contains a ControlNet port which can connect to single or multiple controllers such as ControlLogix or PLC-5 controllers through the 1756-CNB module. This PanelView monochrome terminal provides also an RS-232 which can be wired to either a printer or to the computer RS-232 port for sending files and applications. The Allen-Bradley 2711-T5A15L1 terminal includes 170 kilobytes random access memory (RAM) for runtime applications and 240 kilobytes nonvolatile flash memory. The Allen-Bradley 2711-T5A15L1 supports a memory card which stores applications. This monochrome terminal uses either 2711-NC13 or 2711-NC14 cables to upload and download application files between this terminal and the computer. The Allen-Bradley 2711-T5A15L1 monochrome touch screen terminal supports an input voltage rating range of 18 to 32 volts DC with a maximum power consumption of 18 watts. The 2711-T5A15L1 terminal should be installed in panels or enclosure to preserve the internal circuitry. This Allen-Bradley PanelView terminal can operate at a temperature range of 0 degrees to 55 degrees Celsius (32 degrees to 131 degrees Fahrenheit) for indoor applications and weighs approximately 0.93 kilograms (2.1 pounds) while shipping.

The Bulletin 2711 PanelView Standard Operator Terminals from Allen Bradley has The Allen-Bradley 2711-T5A15L1 as its legacy product. Human Machine Interface (HMI) is the hardware that is used by many industries to achieve real-time machine or process interaction using tiny HMI hardware. The 2711-T5A15L1 is a gadget that runs on DC power. It's meant to work with a voltage range of 18 to 32 volts DC. The power usage of the operator terminal is 18 Watts. The 2711-T5A15L1 is equipped with a 5.5-inch monochrome LCD blue mode display with a built-in VGA resolution of 256 × 128 pixels and a 120 by 60 mm display area (4.75 x 2.38 in.). The screen features a changeable backlight that is rated for 100,000 hours of use. The Touchscreen interface is used to trigger operator reactions. The touchscreen interface is made up of 128 cells with a maximum actuation rate of 1 million. It is recommended that you use a gloved finger or a stylus with a minimum tip radius of 1 mm to use this input interface (0.040 in). A ControlNet port on the PanelView terminal allows data to be exchanged between ControlNet devices. This protocol allows for peer-to-peer or multi-drop setup, enhancing the operator terminal's control capabilities. Alarm print queues can be sent to an alarm printer through a secondary RS232 connection.
