Product Description:

The BTC06.2A-F-EN3-FW/S002 belongs to the BTC06 Manual Control Units series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It is a handheld operator panel used to command and monitor motion axes, spindle functions, or process sequences directly at the machine during setup, recovery, and routine operation. As a manual control unit, it provides push-button, keypad, and display inputs so operators can jog drives, acknowledge alarms, and adjust parameters without opening the main cabinet or stepping away from the point of use.

A sealed front panel rated at IP 65 keeps dust and sprayed fluids away from the electronics during shop-floor use. The enclosure footprint of 315 x 180 x 57 mm without the optional carry handle sets the space required for one-hand or two-hand operation. Visual feedback is provided by a 240 x 128 pixel LCD screen with LED backlighting, letting operators view axis positions, softkeys, and status icons in low-light areas. Power is derived from a single 24 V DC (20 to 30 V) supply, simplifying integration into common control-panel power rails. For data exchange, the unit offers RS-232C and RS-422A/RS-485 links, enabling direct connection to PLCs, CNC controllers, or gateway modules without additional adapters.

The housing mass of about 1.3 kg keeps arm fatigue low while still giving enough weight for stable handheld operation during repeated use. Reliable function is maintained across an ambient range of 0 to +55 °C, so the pendant can be used next to heat-generating machines. Safe enabling is provided by a three-stage, dual-circuit enabling button, and the front plate carries a dedicated emergency-stop switch wired to two channels. A tough polycarbonate shell withstands moderate impacts and resists cutting fluids, while the polyester-foil keypad with 48 keys supports numeric entry, soft functions, and override commands during setup or diagnostics.
