Allen-Bradley 2711-KC1 PanelView 1200 HMI Terminal

The Allen-Bradley 2711-KC1 PanelView 1200 Terminal is a 12-inch color CRT HMI with a built‑in keypad designed for operator interaction with Allen‑Bradley PLCs. It uses a 12‑inch color CRT display to present screens, status, and alarms, navigated via the keypad. The KC1 model supports Remote I/O communication and includes an RS‑232 programming/printer port for configuration and data transfer. It runs on 90–264 VAC power (47–63 Hz), making it compatible with standard industrial power supplies. As part of the PanelView 1200 family, it is commonly configured with PanelBuilder32 software to create screen-based applications that handle alarms, trends, and operator input. Firmware is identified as FRN: 5.11.00 (8.5.7). Typically mounted in control panels or near production lines, the 2711-KC1 enables operators to monitor processes and issue commands via the keypad while the PLC exchanges data over Remote I/O links and the serial port, delivering a reliable, single‑panel interface for industrial automation tasks.
