The 4B1 PanelWare Panels series is a family of compact operator panels for machine and process interfaces, with variants that combine membrane keypads, character displays, and serial or CAN-based communication.
Within the series, available models include compact MMI and HMI versions with 2 x 20 or 4 x 20 character displays, membrane key layouts with configurable or legend-strip labeling, and electrically isolated communication interfaces depending on the panel type. The range includes panels with CAN connection through a 9-pin D-sub interface as well as simpler serial-interface models, and some variants allow node number and baud rate to be set directly on the unit. Across the series, the panels are designed for panel mounting and compact installation, with 24 VDC supply on the CAN models and defined operating limits for temperature, humidity, and shock resistance. Overall, the 4B1 series is intended to provide compact PanelWare operator interfaces for applications that need basic visualization, keyed input, and straightforward integration into industrial control systems.
