NEW 6AV2123-2DB03-0AX0

Core Functionality

• Process Monitoring: Displaying real-time data such as sensor readings, machine statuses (e.g., running, stopped, faulted), and production metrics (e.g., counts, speeds).
• Operator Control: Allowing users to interact with connected equipment via built-in input elements (e.g., buttons, switches, numeric keypads) to start/stop processes, adjust setpoints, or acknowledge alarms.
• Alarm Management: Visualizing system alarms (e.g., errors, warnings) with clear indicators, enabling operators to quickly identify and respond to issues.

Technical Specifications

• Display: Features a 7-inch color TFT display with a resolution optimized for clear visibility of process data, graphics, and text. The display is designed for industrial use, with good contrast and viewing angles to ensure readability in factory environments.
• Input Methods: Equipped with a touchscreen interface for intuitive operation, complemented by physical function keys for quick access to critical commands (e.g., emergency stop overrides, mode selection).
• Processing Power: Integrates a microprocessor tailored to handle basic HMI tasks efficiently, ensuring responsive operation without unnecessary complexity.
• Connectivity:
  • Includes standard industrial communication ports, typically PROFINET (for seamless integration with Siemens S7 PLCs and other PROFINET-enabled devices) and possibly MPI/DP (for compatibility with older Siemens PLCs).
  • May support USB ports for project transfer, data logging, or connecting peripherals like keyboards.
• Mounting: Designed for panel mounting (flush or surface) to fit into control cabinets or machine enclosures, saving space in industrial setups.

Key Applications

• Packaging machines
• Conveyors and material handling systems
• Simple assembly lines
• Pump or motor control panels
• Basic batch processing systems

Compatibility

• Seamlessly integrates with Siemens SIMATIC S7 PLCs (e.g., S7-1200, S7-1500, S7-300/400) via PROFINET, enabling direct data exchange between the HMI and control logic.
• Works with Siemens TIA Portal software (specifically WinCC Basic) for project configuration, allowing engineers to design user screens, define tags, and program logic efficiently within a unified environment.

Industrial Design

• Built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, with an IP rating (typically IP65 on the front) for dust and water resistance, ensuring durability in factory floors, warehouses, or outdoor installations.
• Operates within a wide temperature range (often -10°C to 55°C), making it suitable for environments with fluctuating temperatures.

Advantages

• Cost-Effective: Offers essential HMI functionality at a lower price point compared to advanced Comfort Panels, making it ideal for budget-conscious applications.
• Ease of Use: Intuitive touchscreen and physical keys simplify operator training and daily operation.
• Compact Size: Fits into space-constrained control cabinets, reducing installation footprint.
• Siemens Ecosystem Integration: Leverages Siemens’ Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) framework, ensuring compatibility with other Siemens automation components for a cohesive system.
