The Allen-Bradley 2711-B6C5 is a PanelView terminal automatic controller from the PanelView 600 class with a touchscreen and keypad as input devices. It features a color active matrix TFT display with a 4.54 by 3.4-inch size and a 320 x 234-pixel resolution. This Controller is a wonderful choice for applications that need continuous monitoring but do not require the terminal to be situated directly where the operation occurs.

It is a cost-effective and stock-saving alternative for operations in several places. This automated Controller includes a battery-operated real-time clock. This clock is crucial when users transmit, collect, and produce new data linked to the process.

The run-time application memory for this Controller is 190 kilobytes, while the memory for application components, messages, and bitmaps is 240 kilobytes. It may be used with the PanelBuilder32 program and is computer operable. The 2711-B6C5 is interoperable with DeviceNet, Ethernet/IP, and ControlNet, as well as other communication systems. Additionally, this controller has a nominal voltage level of 24 volts DC and an input voltage ranging from 18 to 32 volts DC. It can be kept between -25 and 79 ° C for storage and between 0 and 55 ° C for operation. It has a maximum operating elevation of 2000 m. The shipping weight of this terminal is 2.2 lbs.

It is perfect for small systems since it can run a single machine or process or several applications simultaneously with the right engineering. It has a 5-inch touchscreen with 320 x 234 resolution and a display area of 15 x 86 millimeters (4.54 x 3.4 inches). The backlight on the HMI screed has an operational life of around 50,000 hours @ 25 °C (77 °F). The 2711-NL5 backlight can be used in its replacement. The device is powered by applying 85–264 volts AC to the voltage input terminal.

It features a single RS232 port that is used for DH485 peer-to-peer communications. The device can be connected to a more complex DH485 network that supports multi-node communications when paired with the 1747-UIC. The keypad and touch-sensitive display can be used to control the process. The keypad has ten function keys (F1-F10) that can be fully programmed to perform a variety of commands and operations. The touch operation can directly interact with the runtime environment's objects.
