The Allen-Bradley PanelView 2711P-T15C22D9P is a sophisticated user-controlled terminal that can be used for a variety of functions and in a wide array of industrial environments. The device belongs to Rockwell Automation’s PanelView Plus 7 Performance Terminal series and is known for its excellent performance characteristics. The operator panel can be used to monitor and control the status of machine components in an automation system. The graphic user interface provided by the device includes a highly sensitive touch screen that can be used to initiate and trigger functions and applications within the control system. The touch screen can also be used to create applications by ensuring the alignment of the interactive touch cells with specific touch screen objects. The touch screen is analog resistive in nature and has an actuation rating of one million presses.

The Allen-Bradley PanelView 2711P-T15C22D9P terminal is an operator panel that functions on an input power source rated at 24 volts of direct current. The direct current power consumption at this rated voltage is a maximum of 50 watts. The terminal is equipped with a real-time clock backup battery with a service life of 4 years. A replacement CR2032 lithium coin cell battery can also be used as a replacement. The device has two Ethernet ports that can be used to configure the device over an Ethernet/IP network and enable communication channels with remote I/O devices such as printers and scanners. The network can be used to relay messages, instructions, data, and feedback to and from the operator panel.

The Allen Bradley 2711P-T15C22D9P is an operator terminal from Panelview Plus 7 series. It has a color TFT XGA LCD touch screen with a 15 inch display size with a 1024 x 768 pixel resolution. The aspect ratio of the display is 4:3. The touch screen is analog resistive with a back light and it has an actuation rating of 1 million presses. Like all other members of Panelview Plus 7, the 2711P-T15C22D9P has 512 MB RAM and 512 MB storage with 80 MB of user free storage. The memory can be increased by adding internal or external cards. This terminal  can also be used for HMI, or human machine interface, applications. That concept has been started before Panelview Plus 6 series, but was highly expanded with Panelview Plus 7, so the terminal can now perform not only local machine visualization, but much more than that. It has 2 Ethernet ports and that double Ethernet port allows 2711P-T15C22D9P to be connected in a ring topology network. Also, the terminal can be connected to linear or star topology network, but ring topology brings additional security when the line is broken. It has DLR (device level ring) integrated option, and also 2 USB high speed ports for the connection to 1 controller (maximum). The input supply voltage is 18-30V DC and the unit operating temperature is 32 to 131 degrees Fahrenheit. The physical dimensions of this device measure 318 mm x 381 mm x 69.6 mm, or 12.52 inches x 15.00 inches x 2.742 inches (HxWxD). Additionally, the weight of the item is approximately 3.69 kilograms, or 8.14 pounds.
