Product Details
Product Description
The 2711-T10C16 is a high-performance operator interface from the legacy PanelView 1000 Standard series. Designed for rugged industrial environments, this terminal features a 10.1-inch Active Matrix Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) color display, providing operators with a clear, 640 x 480 resolution view of complex process data. The interface utilizes a resistive touchscreen matrix composed of 384 individual touch cells, allowing for intuitive, direct-action control of machinery and automated sequences.
Communication on the 2711-T10C16 (Part Number: 2711-T10C16) is handled via dual RS-232 ports. The primary port supports the DF1 protocol for direct point-to-point connection to Allen-Bradley controllers, while the secondary port is dedicated to printing alarms and screen triggers. This AC-powered terminal is built to withstand harsh conditions, carrying NEMA 4X, 12, and 13 ratings when properly panel-mounted. While this model is officially categorized as discontinued by the manufacturer, it remains a critical component for maintaining existing legacy control architectures.

Operational Context and Maintenance
The 2711-T10C16 is typically integrated into systems utilizing SLC 500 or MicroLogix controllers where DF1 serial communication is the standard. Given its legacy status, users should ensure the CCFL backlight remains within its functional lifespan; though the original specifications mention LED upgrades in later revisions, most standard 1000 units rely on CCF bulbs for illumination.
Technical FAQ
What software is required to program the 2711-T10C16?This terminal is configured using PanelBuilder32 software. It is important to note that modern FactoryTalk View Studio does not support direct editing of these legacy .PVA or .PBA files without conversion.
Can the RS-232 port be used for DH-485 communication?No, the 2711-T10C16 is hardware-specific for DF1. If DH-485 or DH+ is required, a different catalog number (such as the 2711-T10C1 or 2711-T10C8) would be necessary, as the internal communication daughtercards are not interchangeable.
