Product Description
The Allen-Bradley 2711-K5A1 PanelView 550 is an obsolete, industrially-hardened Human Machine Interface (HMI) terminal featuring a 5.5-inch monochrome LCD screen (120 x 60 mm) with a 100,000-hour backlight. It allows operators to visualize and interact with industrial processes via a keypad with ten function keys, numerical keys, and navigation buttons. Communication is facilitated through a Remote I/O (RIO) port (using Belden 9463 cable in a daisy-chain topology) and an RS-232 printer port for alarm logging. The unit has 170 KB of application runtime memory and 240 KB of nonvolatile RAM for application objects. It operates on 85-264V AC and supports accessories like PC memory cards, function key legends, and anti-glare shields.
