Product Description:

The 5MP050.0653-03 is a handheld human-machine interface produced by B & R Automation and sold within the 5MP Mobile Panels series. It serves as an operator station that allows personnel to start, stop, and monitor automated equipment while moving around the installation. A tethered emergency-stop circuit, selector switches, and the panel’s internal computing resources work together so the unit can supervise drives, PLC data, and diagnostics directly from the production floor.

For execution of the runtime application, an Intel PXA 270 processor runs at 416 MHz and pairs with 256 MB of DRAM to support rapid screen changes and local buffering of control data. Visual output is provided on a 6.5 in TFT with a native resolution of 640 × 480 pixels, delivering crisp vector graphics for alarms and trends. The display generates up to 65,535 colors, reaches 500 cd/m² of luminance, and maintains a 300:1 contrast ratio so status indicators remain legible under factory lighting. Input is captured through an analog resistive touchscreen, which detects finger or gloved contact without relying on capacitive coupling, allowing use in dusty or oily environments where direct stylus accuracy is needed.

Nonvolatile storage totals 128 MB of flash, enabling recipe retention and software updates without an external card. Ethernet messaging proceeds at 100 Mbit/s, while a USB 1.1 host port permits log retrieval or barcode reader attachment. The housing meets IP65, sealing the electronics against sprayed water and airborne particles when the front surface is cleaned. Electrical integration is via a 24 VDC ±25% supply, and typical draw is limited to 9.6 W, minimizing heat inside the cable grip. The portable panel can store user settings, exchange operating data, and support machine interaction away from the main cabinet.
