The workshop is noisy and full of oil stains. The glass touch screen keeps breaking down frequently? Then this classic veteran of the panel view 600 series, Allen Bradley 2707-V40P2X, is definitely the right choice. It focuses on durability and sturdiness. Although the 5.7-inch blue screen is small, it doesn't require delicate touch; it relies entirely on the physical keyboard for operation. In harsh environments, it is much more reliable than current screens. It is mainly connected to PLCs like SLC 500, and the technicians find it very convenient to check the status and troubleshoot. When buying such old-fashioned spare parts, the biggest concern is getting into trouble. If you look for Hanyite Automation Technology, you'll be in the right place. Our stock is abundant, and we guarantee original and brand-new quality. Let you buy with confidence and use with peace of mind.
This Allen Bradley 2707-V40P2X is extremely intuitive to operate because uses actual buttons instead of touch screens where you have to worry about dirty hands or thick gloves causing inaccuracy. The function keys on the right side of the screen, from F1 to F10, correspond one-to-one with the menus displayed on the screen. You just press whatever you see. Even beginners can quickly understand it. Combined with the up, down, left, and right arrow keys, it's as easy as using an old-fashioned phone. Pressing down gives a clear feedback. Even if the machine vibrates very hard, it's not easy to press the wrong key. You feel at ease when doing the work.
Q1. Does it support Ethernet communication?
A: No. The Allen Bradley 2707-V40P2X mainly communicates via the RS-232 serial port (DH-485 or DF1 protocol). If your current network is entirely based on Ethernet, you may need to purchase a communication conversion module (such as 1761-NET-ENI) for intermediate conversion, or consider upgrading to the new PanelView Plus terminal.
Q2. How is the display effect of this screen?
A: It is equipped with a 5.7-inch blue mode (Blue Mode) liquid crystal display. Although the size is not large, the font display is quite clear. It is sufficient for checking machine status and parameters. This configuration was already quite mainstream in workshops back then.
Q3. Nowadays, everyone is trending towards using touch screens. Why is it still a keyboard?
A: This is precisely its characteristic! It does not adopt the current glass panel touch screen but uses an actual keyboard for input. Just imagine, if the workshop experiences strong vibrations or hands are covered in oil, or wearing thick gloves, touching the touch screen is prone to malfunction or accidental touch. Pressing the physical buttons with a "click" sound gives you a sense of certainty, and even blind operation won't make you feel panicked. The reliability is directly at its peak.
Q4. What devices does this terminal mainly connect to?
A: It is mainly used to be paired with Allen Bradley's PLC (such as the classic SLC 500 or MicroLogix series). Operators can monitor the machine in real time and input data. When the machine malfunctions, it can be detected immediately.
| Long average downtime-free time: | This device was designed specifically for "no stoppage". Its electronic components are selected very conservatively and at a high level. Even machines that have been in use for over a decade can still be seen functioning normally, which directly reduces the frequency of equipment replacement for enterprises. |
| Strict factory testing: | Every unit undergoes high-temperature aging tests and vibration tests before leaving the factory. This is equivalent to the manufacturer screening out all possible problems that might occur on the construction site for you in advance. When it reaches you, it is a "strong warrior" that has been thoroughly tested. |
| Strong spare parts compatibility: | As a classic product, its software (PanelBuilder 32) is very mature and stable. Quality control is not only reflected in the hardware but also in the software's "not picky". When connecting to old PLCs, Allen Bradley 2707-V40P2X is particularly stable and will not have the small problems like frequent disconnections that occur when new systems are compatible with old equipment. |
| Easy maintenance: | Even if it breaks down, its modular design makes replacing components simple. You don't need to dismantle the entire machine. Usually, changing a button membrane or a communication board can solve the problem, greatly reducing maintenance costs and time. |
