Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Seamless Rockwell Ecosystem Integration – Native EtherNet/IP and DF1 protocol support enables direct tag-based communication with ControlLogix, CompactLogix, MicroLogix, and SLC 500 controllers without gateway hardware.
- Compact 6.5″ Footprint – Ideal for space-constrained enclosures and machine-mounted panels where larger terminals are impractical.
- FactoryTalk View ME Runtime – Supports alarm management, trending, recipe management, and multi-language displays out of the box.
- Dual USB Host Ports – Simplify application transfers, firmware updates, and peripheral connections without opening the enclosure.
- NEMA 4X / IP65 Front Face – Suitable for wash-down and dusty environments without additional protective covers.
- Long Product Lifecycle – PanelView Plus 6 is a mature, widely supported platform with readily available spare parts and Rockwell TechConnect support contracts.
- CompactFlash Expandability – Enables extended data logging, recipe storage, and application backup on removable media.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 2711P-T6C20D compatible with CompactLogix 5370 controllers?
A: Yes. Via EtherNet/IP, the 2711P-T6C20D communicates natively with all CompactLogix 5370 (L1–L3) controllers using tag-based addressing in FactoryTalk View ME.
Q: Can this terminal run FactoryTalk View ME version 10 or later?
A: The 2711P-T6C20D supports FactoryTalk View ME up to version 10.x. Verify firmware revision compatibility in Rockwell publication 2711P-TD001 for the latest supported runtime version.
Q: What is the difference between 2711P-T6C20D and 2711P-T6C20D8?
A: The suffix “8” denotes a unit pre-loaded with additional application memory or a specific firmware bundle. Both share the same hardware platform. Confirm application memory requirements before ordering.
Q: Is this unit suitable for Class I Division 2 hazardous locations?
A: The standard 2711P-T6C20D is not rated for Class I Div 2 out of the box. For hazardous location installations, consult Rockwell Automation for an appropriate purge-and-pressurization enclosure solution or specify a Div 2 rated variant.
Q: Can I replace the touch screen assembly in the field?
A: Yes. The replacement display/touch assembly (catalog number 2711P-RDT6) is a field-replaceable unit. Refer to Rockwell Automation installation instructions publication 2711P-IN006 for the procedure.
Q: What communication protocols does the 2711P-T6C20D support?
A: EtherNet/IP (primary), DF1 Full-Duplex, DF1 Half-Duplex Master/Slave, DH-485, and DH+ (via 2711P-RN6 module). Compatible with legacy SLC 500 and PLC-5 systems as well as modern Logix platforms.
