Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the main function of the RS-232 port on this keypad?
The RS-232 port is configured as a printer port. Its primary function is to connect directly to a serial receipt or label printer, allowing the PanelView terminal to output data such as production counts, alarm messages, or batch information directly to a physical printout for records or labels.
Can this 2711-B6C10L1 keypad be used as a standalone DeviceNet input device?
No, it is not a standalone device. It is specifically designed as a replacement or accessory keypad module for Allen-Bradley PanelView Component graphic terminals. It connects to the terminal's main board to provide the physical operator interface, with the terminal itself acting as the DeviceNet node.
What software is needed to configure the buttons on this keypad?
The keypad buttons are configured within the project file created for the PanelView Component terminal using Rockwell Automation's Connected Components Workbench (CCW) software. The keypad itself does not require separate configuration.
Is the keypad rated for use in washdown or explosive environments?
The standard 2711-B6C10L1 keypad is designed for general industrial environments. It is not specifically rated for harsh washdown conditions or hazardous (explosive) locations. For such applications, you would need to consult the terminal's overall enclosure rating or seek specialized sealed accessories.
My existing PanelView Component has a different keypad model. Is this one compatible?
Compatibility depends on the specific PanelView Component terminal model. The 2711-B6C10L1 is designed for terminals that support a keypad with a DeviceNet communication option and an RS-232 port. You must verify the terminal's part number and available accessory ports to ensure compatibility. Cross-reference documentation or contact technical support for confirmation.
Does the keypad require a separate power supply?
Typically, the keypad receives power through its connection to the main PanelView Component terminal. The terminal is powered, often via 24V DC, and supplies power to the attached keypad module. No separate power wiring for the keypad itself is usually required.
What type of cable is used for the DeviceNet connection on the keypad?
The DeviceNet connection uses a standard, shielded DeviceNet network cable with a Micro-style (often 5-pin) circular connector, which is common for DeviceNet devices. The specific cable part number would be available upon request or from Allen-Bradley's accessory lists.
Can the RS-232 port be used for communication other than printing, like connecting to a barcode scanner?
The port is specifically implemented as a printer port in the PanelView Component firmware. Its functionality is generally dedicated to driving a serial printer. Using it for other serial devices like scanners would require firmware support and configuration that is typically not available; it is recommended to use the terminal's other communication ports for such purposes.
