The high-tech Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation logic module 2711P-RP9A is designed to interface with Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus 6 series display screens. The unit has a volatile internal memory of 512 MB and it is to write application data variables. The programming of the 2711P-RP9A module can be done with a personal computer. The connection for the PC is with an RS-232 communication port. The unit can also interact with external devices and network capability is achieved with an Ethernet port with a high speed rate of 100 megabytes per second.
The unit also has one USB port. The module works with Allen-Bradley PanelView 6.0 display terminals of series 700 to 1500 .The unit works on AC power supply. The module is marine certified.

Part number 2711P-RP9A is a logic module that is a compatible replacement for the PanelView Plus 6 - 700 and 1500 operator terminals. This logic module interfaces with the display module to form a fully functional operator terminal. The 2711P-RP9A is an alternating current (AC) powered device that operates at a frequency of fifty (50) to sixty (60) hertz and draws one hundred and sixty (160) volt-amperes of current. This Allen-Bradley logic module also includes 512 megabytes (MB) of onboard flash memory and 512 megabytes (MB) of random-access memory (RAM) with approximately 79 megabytes (MB) of free user memory. The Allen Bradley 2711P-RP9A includes an Ethernet communication interface for line topology network architecture and one (1) 9-pin RS-232 Sub-D interface for peer-to-peer connections. The embedded USB ports of this logic module are used to connect external peripherals, which include keyboards, computer mouses, and USB storage devices. The 2711P-RP9A is designed to operate with display modules that include a touchscreen, keypad, or touchscreen and keypad input interface. The 2711P-RP9A logic module connects to the display using the PCI slot. The logic module is used in Class 1, Division 2, and groups A, B, C, and D. The hardware and communication status can be monitored using the two (2) LEDs, or light emitting diodes, featured on the module. There is also a reset button that can be pressed to reset the terminal's settings to factory defaults. The ambient storage temperature of this device should remain within a range of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius.
