Allen-Bradley 2711P-RP2DTP PanelView Plus 6 Logic Module

Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley 2711P-RP2DTP serves as the high-performance processing core for the PanelView Plus 6 series operator interface terminals. This logic module handles all graphic rendering, data processing, and communication tasks between the HMI and the controller. We supply this unit as 100% Brand New and Original, featuring 128 MB of non-volatile flash memory and 128 MB of RAM to ensure smooth transition between complex HMI screens and efficient data logging.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

• High-Speed Data Processing: The integrated 128MB RAM facilitates rapid execution of FactoryTalk View ME runtime applications. This minimizes screen refresh latency and ensures real-time alarm triggering for critical process variables.

• Expanded Connectivity Options: The module integrates dual USB ports and a dedicated Ethernet port. This allows simultaneous connection of external peripherals (like keyboards or mice) while maintaining high-speed communication with the PLC network.

• Optimized Thermal Clearances: The hardware design requires specific mounting clearances—2 inches (51 mm) at the top and 4 inches (102 mm) at the bottom. Adhering to these specifications promotes natural convection cooling, preventing internal component overheating even in high-density control cabinets.

• Rugged Environment Compliance: This module operates at altitudes up to 2000 meters and survives in humidity levels up to 95%. The robust construction protects the sensitive logic circuitry from the typical stressors found in heavy industrial environments.

FAQs

Q: Can I use the 2711P-RP2DTP to upgrade an older PanelView Plus 700-1500 terminal?

A: Yes. The 2711P-RP2DTP specifically upgrades or replaces logic modules in PanelView Plus 6 (700 to 1500) terminals. It provides significantly faster processing speeds and more robust memory management compared to first-generation PanelView Plus logic modules.

Q: Does this unit arrive in original Allen-Bradley packaging?

A: Absolutely. We guarantee this unit is 100% Brand New. It ships in original factory packaging with the factory seal intact, ensuring you receive a module with zero operational hours and a full service life.

Q: What is the benefit of the CompactFlash slot on this module?

A: The CompactFlash slot allows you to expand the non-volatile storage for extensive data logging, recipe storage, or firmware updates. This removes the burden from the internal 128MB flash memory during high-intensity logging operations.

Q: Does the 2711P-RP2DTP support serial communication for legacy PLCs?

A: Yes. The built-in RS-232 serial port supports DF1 and other serial protocols. This enables direct connection to legacy controllers like the SLC 500 or MicroLogix without requiring additional communication adapters.
