Allen-Bradley 2711-B6C8 PanelView 600 Color HMI is a compact operator interface terminal that combines a 5-inch color touchscreen with a keypad for local machine control. It supports DH+ and RS-232 printer port communications, enabling straightforward integration with Rockwell Automation PLCs and on-screen data printing. Powered by 85–264 VAC, this PanelView 600 unit runs with PanelBuilder32 software for screen creation and deployment, and it provides 240 KB of memory for storing simple applications and screens. The device uses the 2711-NL5 backlight and the 2711-NC14 communications cable, and it is part of the PanelView 600 family (series A–L). Firmware revisions observed range from 1.00 to 4.48, with field units commonly referenced in FRN 4.x series such as 4.41. The unit ships with a shipping weight of 6 pounds and approximate packing dimensions of 14 x 11 x 8 inches, making it suitable for small-to-medium automation panels that require a local HMI with both DH+ networking and RS-232 printing capability.
