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.
