Product Description:

The BTC06.2A-E-EH3-FW handheld module is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the BTC06 Manual Control Units series. As a portable interface, it provides direct jogging, override, and program entry functions for multi-axis drive systems on factory floors and machining centers. It is intended for local machine interaction when axis movement or feed override must be adjusted away from the main control cabinet. Its 48-key polyester membrane keyboard and integral handwheel support direct manual control during positioning, recovery, and routine machine operation.

An environmental seal rated at IP 65 keeps dust and water jets away from the electronics, and a wide input range of 24 V (20–30 V) DC allows the unit to operate from common control-cabinet supplies. Operator feedback is shown on a monochrome LCD 240 × 128 pixels display that supports full-graphics symbols under an LED backlight. This screen layout helps present status information, symbols, and entered values in a clear format during use. For data exchange, the pendant provides RS-232C and RS-422A/RS-485 ports for legacy and differential serial links on motion controllers. Machine run commands pass through a three-stage, dual-circuit enable switch for redundant channel operation.

The polycarbonate housing measures 315 × 180 × 57 mm without the optional carrying handle and weighs about 1.3 kg, so it remains manageable during extended manual positioning tasks. Reliable performance is maintained from 0 to +55 °C, allowing use near heat-generating machinery or in unconditioned workshops. For immediate risk reduction, a mushroom-head Emergency Stop button is wired into the pendant so axis power can be removed locally instead of at the main cabinet. The housing also includes slide-in legends for twelve axis keys and an override potentiometer, which help keep machine functions easy to identify during operation.
