Rockwell's technical data 2711P-TD005 gives a color active-matrix TFT display of 70 x 53 mm at 320 x 240, with 256 MB RAM, 512 MB nonvolatile memory. It runs Windows CE and applications built with FactoryTalk View Machine Edition software. Rockwell lists the 2711P-B4C20D8 as discontinued.

What is the 2711P-B4C20D8 used for?

The 2711P-B4C20D8 is the operator screen on a machine or process line: it shows the FactoryTalk View Machine Edition application and passes the operator's key presses and touches to the controller. It mounts in a panel cut-out of 123 x 156 mm, so a terminal of the same size and version fits the existing opening.

Lifecycle and successor

Discontinued.
