Allen-Bradley 2711P-T12C15D1 PanelView Plus 1250 Touchscreen Terminal

Configured for touchscreen operator interaction in a PanelView Plus 1250 system, the Allen-Bradley 2711P-T12C15D1 (2711P-T12C15D1 operator terminal) provides full-color graphical display and DC-powered control interface functions. The terminal uses a 12.1 inch touchscreen with 800 x 600 pixel resolution and supports ControlNet communication.

Hardware Specifications

PanelView Plus Interface and Communication Characteristics

The 2711P-T12C15D1 provides a 12.1 inch full-color touchscreen for graphical operator interface functions. Its 800 x 600 pixel display resolution supports graphical screens, status information, and process-control objects.

The specified input range is 18-32 VDC, with 24 VDC identified as the nominal supply value. Therefore, field wiring should maintain the DC supply within the documented operating range.

ControlNet is identified as the primary communication capability in the supplied technical data. The feature list additionally identifies CNET, ENET, RS-232, and USB interfaces; exact port assignments should be verified against the terminal hardware revision before installation.

The touchscreen accepts direct finger operation and a suitable stylus. Sharp or pointed implements should not contact the screen because they can scratch or puncture the touchscreen surface.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What DC supply voltage does the 2711P-T12C15D1 require?
A: The specified input range is 18-32 VDC, with 24 VDC identified as the nominal input value.

Q: What display hardware is provided by this terminal?
A: The terminal provides a 12.1 inch full-color touchscreen with an 800 x 600 pixel display resolution.

Q: Does the supplied data specify power consumption?
A: No specific power-consumption value is provided, so the required current rating should be confirmed from the applicable hardware manual.

Field Installation Guidelines

Mount the terminal using the manufacturer-specified panel cutout and mechanical fastening procedure. Maintain sufficient clearance around the enclosure for wiring and service access.

Connect the DC supply using correctly rated conductors and verify polarity before energization. Confirm that the measured supply remains within the specified 18-32 VDC input range.

Route communication wiring separately from high-current power conductors and switching circuits where practical. Avoid parallel routing near contactors, motors, variable-frequency drives, and other significant electromagnetic noise sources.

For shielded communication cables, terminate shielding according to the applicable Allen-Bradley network installation requirements. Avoid creating unintended ground loops through multiple shield termination points.

Use the appropriate ControlNet, Ethernet, RS-232, or USB connection according to the installed hardware configuration. Verify connector type and port assignment before commissioning.

Operate the touchscreen with a finger or a suitable non-sharp stylus. Do not use pointed tools, screwdrivers, or other implements that could damage the touchscreen surface.

The supplied source data contains conflicting weight values of 7.38 lb and 7.98 lb. Confirm the exact terminal revision and nameplate data before using weight information for mechanical design.
