Product Description:
The 4P3040.01-K16 operator terminal belongs to the 4P Power Panels series from B & R Automation. It combines visualization, control, and local I/O handling in a single panel that mounts on the machine door. Within an automation cell, it serves as the human-machine interface, letting operators view process data, enter setpoints, and trigger sequences while the integrated controller executes the logic stored in nonvolatile memory and drives the connected peripherals. Because the control and display functions are housed together, the panel supports compact machine layouts that need direct access from the front of the enclosure.
Its display measures 5.7 in, a size that fits compact machinery while still leaving room for clear process graphics. The monochrome LCD presents these graphics at 320 x 240 px, so menu pages, alarm fields, and status icons appear on a fixed pixel grid that is easy to organize. Brightness reaches 150 cd/m², making the screen readable under typical factory lighting without requiring a separate hood in many installations. Field signals arrive through 10 digital inputs, and commands leave through 8 digital outputs; the sink-type input circuit detects low-side switching common to sensor blocks, while the outputs drive actuators that use sourcing logic. This arrangement allows the panel to supervise small machine functions directly from the front door without relying on a separate local interface.
Power is supplied at 24 VDC, and the electronics draw only 20 W, helping limit heat buildup inside the cabinet during normal operation. Each expansion position can carry specialized I/O or motion modules, while the PCMCIA bay and CAN interface support data handling and network connection for machine-level tasks. Output drivers are rated at 0.4 A per channel, which is suitable for small relays, indicator lamps, and similar control loads. The front panel carries an IP65 (front) rating, so dust and water jets do not reach the circuitry from the operator side. A dedicated RS232 port supports direct serial communication, and the battery-backed SRAM keeps recipes and machine counters available after power is removed.
