Product Overview: Allen-Bradley 2711P-T15C21D8S PanelView Plus 7
The 2711P-T15C21D8S is a PanelView Plus 7 Standard operator terminal from Allen‑Bradley. It delivers real-time operator interaction for industrial processes. This 15‑inch color TFT display features 1024 x 768 XGA resolution with 18‑bit color graphics. The analog resistive touchscreen supports gloved-hand operation and 1 million actuations. Embedded Ethernet (linear topology) and two USB host ports simplify connectivity. Powered by 18–30 VDC (nominal 24V), it consumes 50 W max. With 512 MB RAM and 512 MB non‑volatile memory, it runs applications smoothly. The backlight is non‑replaceable (50,000 h half‑brightness). It includes a battery‑backed RTC and an SD card slot for memory expansion.
