Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley 2711R-T4T is a space-efficient, high-performance Human-Machine Interface (HMI) part of the PanelView™ 800 family. Optimized for use with small control systems, this graphic terminal features a 4.3-inch widescreen TFT color display that provides sharp visualization for machine-level monitoring. It combines a responsive analog touch interface with dedicated physical function keys, offering operators multiple modes of interaction for improved input accuracy in industrial environments.

Driven by an 800 MHz processor, the 2711R-T4T is engineered for rapid boot times and fluid screen transitions. It is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Micro800® and MicroLogix™ controller families, providing a cost-effective solution for standalone machines that require robust data visualization and parameter management.

System Performance and Core Features

The 2711R-T4T is built to deliver reliable performance with an emphasis on versatility and high-speed processing.

• Advanced Hardware Architecture: Equipped with 256 MB of DDR RAM and 256 MB of non-volatile Flash memory, ensuring ample storage for complex screen graphics and extensive data logs.

• Flexible Orientation: Uniquely supports both landscape and portrait mounting configurations, allowing engineers to optimize panel space based on specific machine designs.

• Communication Versatility: Features an integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port and a multi-protocol serial port (RS-232/RS-422/RS-485), facilitating diverse network architectures.

• Long-Life Illumination: The white LED backlight is rated for 40,000 hours of service, ensuring consistent visibility over years of continuous operation.

• Efficient Recipe Management: Includes built-in recipe capabilities that allow for the bulk uploading and downloading of parameter sets, which simplifies product changeovers and configuration backups.
