Allen Bradley 2711P-K10C6D1 PanelView Plus 1000 Keypad Terminal

Core Advantages

• Dual Legacy Protocol Support: The integrated DH+ (Data Highway Plus) and DH-485 communication interfaces provide native connectivity to Allen-Bradley PLC-5, SLC 500, and MicroLogix controllers. This eliminates the need for protocol converters or network upgrades when maintaining existing Data Highway infrastructure.

• Reliable Keypad Input: The terminal features a full numeric keypad, navigation keys, and programmable function keys for fast, error-resistant data entry. This makes it ideal for applications where operators require tactile feedback or work in environments where touchscreen operation is impractical.

• Robust Industrial Construction: Built to withstand harsh conditions including vibration, dust, and typical industrial temperatures, the terminal operates reliably in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 55°C with humidity levels from 5% to 95% (non-condensing). The panel-mount design with IP65/NEMA 4X front protection ensures durability in factory floor environments.

• Field-Replaceable Components: The LED backlight module (2711P-RL10C) is field-replaceable, reducing maintenance downtime and extending operational life. The modular design includes separate logic and display modules for simplified serviceability.

• Seamless Rockwell Integration: Designed for native integration with Allen-Bradley control platforms, the terminal uses FactoryTalk View Studio software for configuration and runs FactoryTalk View Machine Edition applications, providing a consistent development environment across the Rockwell ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the model number 2711P-K10C6D1 represent?
A: The model number breaks down as follows: 2711P = PanelView Plus series HMI; K = Keypad input; 10 = 10.4-inch screen; C = Color TFT display; 6 = DH+ and DH-485 communication interface; D1 = DC power supply model (18-32 VDC).

Q: What controllers are compatible with this terminal?
A: The 2711P-K10C6D1 is designed for native integration with Allen-Bradley PLC-5, SLC 500, and MicroLogix controllers using DH+ or DH-485 networks. For ControlLogix systems, you would need a different communication module.

Q: What software is required to program this terminal?
A: The terminal is configured using Rockwell Automation's FactoryTalk View Studio software and runs FactoryTalk View Machine Edition applications.

Q: Can the backlight be replaced in the field?
A: Yes, the 2711P-RL10C backlight assembly is field-replaceable. However, replacement requires power removal due to internal inverter discharge constraints.

Q: What is the difference between DH+ and DH-485 communication?
A: DH+ (Data Highway Plus) supports higher-speed communication and is typically used with PLC-5 controllers, while DH-485 is a lower-cost network commonly used with SLC 500 and MicroLogix controllers. This terminal supports both protocols for maximum compatibility.

Q: Is this terminal discontinued?
A: The 2711P-K10C6D1 has been discontinued by Rockwell Automation, but we specialize in supplying surplus and refurbished replacement units. Please contact us for availability.

Q: How fast can you ship this module?
A: As this is a stock item, we typically ship within 24 hours of order confirmation via global express services like DHL or FedEx.
