12" Monochrome or Color Display
All PanelView 1200 terminals have a 12" display in monochrome (amber)
or color. Color terminals can display 8 colors at a time from a choice of 16.
Direct Connection to any Allen Bradley PLC Remote I/O Link
You can integrate a PanelView 1200 terminal quickly and easily into any
PLC system capable of supporting the Allen-Bradley 1771 Remote I/O
Link.
A PanelView 1200 terminal appears as one or more PLC I/O racks on an
Allen-Bradley PLC Remote I/O link; it can be configured as up to 8
different racks—or fractional racks—with any valid PLC rack numbers.
Communications between the PLC controller and the PanelView 1200
terminal are provided through the discrete I/O image table area, and up to 5
block transfers (up to 32 words per block). Block transfers allow you to
transfer more information at a time than does discrete I/O. The
PanelView 1200 terminals can also communicate to the SLC-5/02
controller through the use of the 1747-SN module.
Direct or Data Highway Plus and Remote I/O Downloading
Application files can be downloaded from the development computer to
the terminal via the Upload/Download cable (an RS-232 connection), or
via a Data Highway Plus, using the PLC-5 Pass-Through feature.
By using the Data Highway Plus for downloading, you can download to
several terminals from a single development computer without having to
go from terminal to terminal, connecting the Upload/Download cable for
each one.
Factory Installed Battery Provides Extended Back up
The built-in battery maintains power to the terminal's memory so the
application file is not lost when the terminal is switched off. PanelView
1200 terminals come equipped with a RAM memory chip that requires
minimal power from the lithium battery. Also, the battery is not burdened
when AC power is applied to the terminal. This provides exceptional life
for the battery, which is expected to last for the life of the terminal.
