Operator Terminal | Allen-Bradley 2711-K10G20 PanelView 1000 Standard

The Allen-Bradley 2711-K10G20 is an industrial PanelView 1000 Standard human-machine interface (HMI) terminal engineered for real-time monitoring and process control. Featuring a 10-inch grayscale graphics display paired with a physical keypad interface, this unit establishes high-speed network connectivity to programmable logic controllers via EtherNet/IP while providing dedicated serial printer communication.

Physical Interface & Operator Inputs

The panel integrates a 10-inch active diagonal screen providing a 640 x 480 pixel VGA resolution for clear display of process diagrams, alarm lists, and trends. Operator input is handled through a stainless-steel membrane keypad equipped with 16 programmable function keys (F1 through F16) alongside dedicated navigation and numeric keys, enabling reliable entry even when operators wear industrial protective gloves.

Communication Architecture & Electrical Specifications

Equipped with an onboard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet communication port, the terminal transfers runtime process data directly to ControlLogix, CompactLogix, or SLC 500 automation platforms. A secondary RS-232 serial port is dedicated to alarm printing and event logging for historical record keeping. Powered by an internal universal AC power supply (85-264 VAC, 47-63 Hz), the assembly incorporates 310 KB of application runtime RAM and 1008 KB of nonvolatile flash memory for PanelBuilder32 application storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the RS-232 serial port on the 2711-K10G20 be used for PLC communication? A: No, on the 2711-K10G20 model, the primary network connection is established exclusively via the Ethernet port, while the RS-232 interface is dedicated solely to serial printer output for alarms and events.

Q: What software tool is required to configure and transfer applications to this terminal? A: Application development and configuration transfers for PanelView 1000 Standard terminals are performed using Rockwell Automation's PanelBuilder32 software package.

Q: Is this model powered by DC or AC input voltage?A: The standard 2711-K10G20 operates on universal AC power supplying 85-264 VAC at 47-63 Hz. Models requiring 24 VDC power carry the "L1" suffix (2711-K10G20L1).
