Product Description:

The BTV20.3EA-24B-55C-S-FW is an operator panel produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the BTV20 Machine Operator Panels series. It acts as a centralized human-machine interface that relays operator commands to machine controls and displays system states on production lines and machining centers. It integrates with Indramat drives and controllers so operators can adjust process settings, acknowledge faults, and review status messages from one panel location. The screen and control area place common machine actions and visible status information together for daily operation.

The panel’s base system is equipped with a 1 GHz processor and a RS485 communication port, so it can run graphic menu routines while linking to legacy fieldbus networks without external converters. Power is supplied through a wide input range of AC 115 to 230 V, permitting use in single-phase control cabinets worldwide, and the permitted mains frequency span is 50 to 60 Hz. For direct machine interaction, the front membrane includes 16 machine function keys that can be assigned to axis enable, cycle start, coolant control, or PLC bits. A standard keyboard is integrated, and its tactile response supports routine data entry while retaining a compact footprint. User data, part programs, and diagnostics can be exchanged through the front-mounted Smart Card interface.

The unit is Design 3, indicating the third mechanical generation that shares mounting cutouts with earlier BTV versions. The panel function type is the MTA export version, so key legends and software selection suit international installations. Within the broader BTV Panel family, this device is part of product line 20 and can be paired with matching cables, display modules, and handheld terminals. Operating software is supplied separately so the panel can be matched to the required language pack and machine template.
