Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models

The following models are commonly evaluated as direct or functional replacements for the GP2301-SC41-24V. Compatibility depends on your PLC protocol, panel cutout dimensions, and software environment — always verify before ordering.

PROFACE GP2301-SC41-24V — Original model (this listing)
PROFACE GP2301-LG41-24V — Same platform, EL backlight variant
PROFACE GP2501-SC41-24V — Upgraded 5.7″ color STN, same form factor
PROFACE GP-4301TW — Modern GP4000 series equivalent, 5.7″ color TFT, GP-Pro EX compatible
PROFACE GP-4301T — GP4000 series, 5.7″ TFT, enhanced connectivity
Schneider Electric HMIGTO2310 — Magelis GTO series, 5.7″ color, Vijeo Designer software
Weintek MT6070iH — Third-party equivalent, 7″ TFT, multi-protocol support
Siemens KTP700 Basic — Alternative platform, 7″ TFT, TIA Portal integration

Note: Third-party equivalents may require protocol adapters or software reconfiguration. Contact Konmask for compatibility verification.

Why Choose the Original Model

Drop-in replacement: Identical panel cutout and mounting dimensions — no mechanical modification required for existing installations.
Software continuity: Fully compatible with existing GP-PRO/PB III and GP-Pro EX projects — no reprogramming needed.
Protocol fidelity: Native support for PROFACE serial protocols eliminates the risk of communication errors introduced by third-party adapters.
Proven reliability: Widely deployed in automotive, food & beverage, and discrete manufacturing environments since the GP2000 series launch.
New surplus stock: Factory-sealed units with full original warranty documentation — not refurbished or reconditioned.

Typical Applications

Machine tool HMI panels (CNC lathes, milling centers)
Packaging line operator interfaces
Injection molding machine control
Conveyor and material handling systems
Water treatment and pump station monitoring
HVAC and building automation control panels
Semiconductor and electronics assembly equipment

System Compatibility

The GP2301-SC41-24V supports serial communication with a broad range of PLC platforms via built-in drivers. Verified compatible systems include:

Mitsubishi Electric: MELSEC FX, Q, A series (RS-422/485)
Omron: C, CJ, CS series (Host Link / FINS)
Siemens: S7-200, S7-300 (PPI / MPI via adapter)
Keyence: KV series
Panasonic: FP series
Modbus RTU: Generic Modbus slave/master devices
PROFACE: All GP2000 / GP3000 series PLCs and controllers

For Ethernet-based PLCs, a serial-to-Ethernet gateway (e.g., Moxa NPort) is required. Contact us for recommended gateway configurations.

Selection Guide

Use the criteria below to determine whether the GP2301-SC41-24V is the right choice for your application, or to select an appropriate alternative:

Existing installation replacement: If you are replacing a failed GP2301-SC41-24V in an existing panel, the original model is the lowest-risk choice — no cutout modification, no software migration.
Color display required: Consider the GP2501-SC41-24V (color STN) or GP-4301TW (color TFT) for improved operator visibility in high-ambient-light environments.
Ethernet connectivity required: Upgrade to the GP-4301T or GP-4501T (GP4000 series) which include built-in Ethernet ports.
Budget-sensitive retrofit: Weintek MT6070iH or similar third-party HMIs offer lower unit cost but require driver configuration and project migration effort.
TIA Portal / Siemens ecosystem: Siemens KTP700 Basic is the recommended path if the control system is Siemens-centric.
Long-term support: For new machine designs, the GP4000 series (GP-4301TW / GP-4501TW) is recommended as the current-generation PROFACE platform with active software support.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ

Q: Is the GP2301-SC41-24V still in production?
A: No. The GP2000 series has been discontinued by Pro-face. New surplus stock remains available through authorized distributors and industrial surplus suppliers such as Konmask.

Q: Can I use GP-Pro EX software to program this unit?
A: Yes. GP-Pro EX supports GP2000 series panels in legacy mode. However, GP-PRO/PB III is the native programming environment for this model.

Q: What is the direct modern replacement from PROFACE?
A: Pro-face recommends the GP-4301TW (GP4000 series) as the functional successor, offering color TFT display, Ethernet, and full GP-Pro EX support.

Q: Will my existing GP2301 project file work on a GP-4301TW?
A: GP-Pro EX includes a project conversion tool. Most screen objects and tag mappings migrate automatically, but communication driver settings and screen layouts should be verified after conversion.

Q: Do you provide installation support?
A: Konmask provides pre-sales technical consultation and basic commissioning guidance. For on-site installation, we recommend engaging a certified PROFACE system integrator.
