Product Description:

The VPP40.1BIA-1G0NN-M1D-BN-NN-FW is a panel-mounted human-machine interface produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and supplied within the VPP IndraLogic Terminals series. It combines visualization, operator input, and embedded control functions, allowing production lines, packaging machines, and assembly stations to execute IndraLogic programs while giving operators a clear overview of process variables. By integrating computing electronics directly behind the display, the unit minimizes cabinet depth and reduces wiring between the controller and front panel. Because the control hardware is built into the terminal, machine functions and on-screen status can be managed from the same installation point.

The front of the unit houses a 15 in TFT panel that renders up to 256,000 colors at 1024 × 768 px. Sixteen dedicated machine keys around the screen give direct access to frequently used control sequences, so routine commands can be reached without navigating multiple menus. An IP65 rating protects the 407 mm by 371 mm bezel from dust and projected water, allowing installation on enclosure doors without additional sealing. Internal electronics operate from 24 V DC and draw a steady 6 A under normal load; a brief startup inrush of 25 A is tolerated, and the terminal can provide 110 W of outbound power for peripherals.

Computation is handled by a Celeron M processor supported by 1 GB of RAM, which provides capacity for visualization tasks and real-time logic execution in one unit. Network communication is provided through a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet port, enabling data exchange with higher-level PLCs or supervisory systems and supporting integration into machine networks. Expansion is available through 3 slots (2 PCI, 1 PCI/ISA), so optional interface or storage cards can be added internally rather than through separate external hardware. This internal expansion approach keeps the operator station compact while leaving room for application-specific connectivity.
