Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley 2711R-T7T is a high-performance operator interface designed for small to mid-sized standalone machine applications. Featuring a 7-inch widescreen WVGA display, this PanelView™ 800 graphic terminal provides vivid 65K color visualization to enhance operator interaction and process monitoring. It is specifically optimized for use with the Micro800® controller family, though it offers broad compatibility with CompactLogix™ 5370 and MicroLogix™ processors.

This terminal is engineered to deliver a cost-effective HMI solution without sacrificing essential features. It supports both portrait and landscape mounting orientations to fit diverse cabinet layouts. With integrated Ethernet and serial communication ports, the 2711R-T7T acts as a centralized hub for data exchange, alarm management, and recipe handling, ensuring efficient machine-level control in discrete manufacturing and process industries.

Advanced Display and Connectivity

The 2711R-T7T utilizes a resistive analog touchscreen that is rated for 1 million actuations, providing a durable user interface even when operated with industrial gloves. The WVGA (800 x 480) resolution ensures that complex graphics and text are legible, while the adjustable LED backlight extends the unit's service life to over 40,000 hours.

For data management, the terminal is equipped with 256 MB of internal RAM and 256 MB of flash storage. A built-in microSD™ card slot allows for easy log storage and project transfers using industrial-grade cards up to 32 GB. The inclusion of a USB 2.0 host port further expands functionality, allowing for the connection of external peripherals like keyboards or mice to simplify data entry.
