Product Description:

The VPP21.2BQD-1G0C-M1D-NNNN is an operator terminal produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the VPP IndraLogic Terminals series. Installed on cabinet doors or machine panels, it provides the human-machine interface between IndraLogic controllers and machine operators. Operators interact through a matrix of tactile keys rather than a touchscreen, which suits lines where gloves, oil, or vibration can interfere with capacitive input. The terminal is used for recipe selection, alarm acknowledgment, local jogging, and other panel-based control tasks in automated cells. Because the keypad offers direct physical actuation, key presses are easier to confirm on moving equipment and in areas with light contamination.

Its display measures 14 in, and the active area renders at 1024 × 768 px on a TFT panel, giving a familiar XGA workspace for diagnostics, status pages, and trend charts. A Celeron M 1.3 GHz processor works with 1 GB SO-DIMM DRAM, so visualization tasks and controller-related data can be handled locally without a separate PC. Two onboard Ethernet interfaces allow the terminal to connect to plant and service networks at the same time, while a USB port supports data transfer with removable media. Fieldbus expansion is available through a short-card PCI slot, which gives the panel added communication flexibility for machine integration. Power enters at 24 VDC, matching the low-voltage rails commonly used for sensors and I/O, and the front panel includes 57 keys with dedicated programmable positions for recurring commands.

Overall power consumption stays below 48 W, which helps limit thermal rise inside sealed enclosures. The aluminum chassis carries an IP40 rating, while the polyester front foil reaches IP64 when the unit is flush-mounted, helping protect the operating surface from airborne dust and splashing coolant. A mass of 11 kg keeps mechanical loads within the range of common hinge or swing-arm assemblies. The sealed keyboard membrane helps prevent particulates from reaching the internal circuitry during operation.
