Information About 2711-B6C5

The 2711-B6C5 belongs to the PanelView Standard family and provides a balanced combination of visualization, input flexibility, and robust communication through an embedded RS-232 DH485 port. Its hybrid input system—combining ten programmable function keys with an analog-resistive touchscreen—supports efficient navigation and operator acknowledgment in industrial environments.

This terminal features a 320 × 234 pixel color display supported by a long-life backlight rated for 50,000 hours, ensuring dependable visibility for process screens and alarms. Designed for installations powered by 85–264 VAC, the device integrates well into existing control panels and legacy systems that rely on DH485 network communication. The unit contains 170 KB of application runtime memory and 240 KB of nonvolatile storage for screens, objects, text, and bitmaps.

Engineered for reliable operation, the 2711-B6C5 includes a battery-backed real-time clock, supports standard PanelView accessories, and mounts conveniently in machine panels of small to medium applications. Its compact footprint and dual-input design make it ideal for machine operators needing both tactile and touchscreen control in production or process environments.

Key Features

  • Hybrid Input Interface: Equipped with 10 programmable function keys plus touchscreen for flexible operation.
  • Color TFT Display: 5-inch active-matrix screen with 320 × 234 resolution for clear visualization.
  • DH485 Serial Communication: Embedded RS-232 port for peer-to-peer or networked communication.
  • AC-Powered Design: Operates on 85–264 VAC for simplified panel integration.
  • Long-Life Backlight: 50,000-hour half-life at 25°C for extended service.
  • Compact Form Factor: Suitable for small machine control stations and distributed operator points.
  • Real-Time Clock: Battery-backed clock for timestamping and data tracking.
  • Durable Touchscreen: 1 million actuations with 128-cell analog resistive sensing.

The 2711-B6C5 delivers the reliability and precision required for operator control and monitoring in industrial HMI applications.

Frequently Asked Questions about 2711-B6C5
Question: What is the main purpose of the 2711-B6C5 terminal?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The 2711-B6C5 is a standard HMI terminal from the PanelView 600 series used to visualize, monitor, and control industrial processes. It allows operators to interact with equipment using both a touchscreen and function keys. Its color display and DH-485 communication make it ideal for small to mid-size standalone systems. The terminal supports runtime data exchange, alarms, and process inputs. It is commonly deployed in factory automation and standalone machine applications.

Question: What is the display specification of the 2711-B6C5?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The terminal includes a 5-inch color active matrix TFT screen with a resolution of 320 x 234 pixels. It provides vibrant graphics for monitoring alarms, process variables, and messages. The backlight has a 50,000-hour half-life at 25°C and can be replaced with part 2711-NL5. The display area follows a 4:3 aspect ratio, supporting standard layouts. It’s ideal for compact visualizations.

Question: How much memory does the 2711-B6C5 have?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

It includes 170 KB of runtime memory and 240 KB of nonvolatile memory for application objects, texts, and bitmaps. This memory supports small-to-medium applications with screens, alarms, and messages. The limited memory restricts advanced animation or large-scale applications. Application files are developed using PanelBuilder32 software. It’s sufficient for most machine-level tasks.

Question: What types of communication are supported by the 2711-B6C5?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The terminal uses a single RS232 port that supports the DH-485 protocol for communication with PLCs. This connection allows basic peer-to-peer or multi-node communication via an adapter like the 1747-UIC. It does not support Ethernet, DeviceNet, or ControlNet natively. Communication cables like the 2711-NC14 are used for setup. The DH-485 protocol suits legacy and standalone systems.

Question: Is the 2711-B6C5 still being manufactured?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The 2711-B6C5 has been phased out and is considered discontinued by Rockwell Automation. While it is no longer manufactured, it may still be available from surplus suppliers or as spare parts. Users are advised to migrate to the PanelView Plus series for continued support and compatibility. Replacement models offer better resolution, memory, and Ethernet connectivity. Migration tools are available to ease the upgrade.
