Product Description:

The VSP16.1AKE-512NN-C1D-AE-NN-FW is an operator terminal produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the VSP IndraControl Terminals series. Installed on machine doors or control cabinets, it serves as the local human-machine interface, receiving local input and returning real-time process data to supervisory controllers. By combining a built-in computer with an integrated display and touch sensor, the unit eliminates the need for a separate PC and simplifies panel wiring in automated cells, packaging lines, and motion-control stations.

The visualization hardware centers on a 12 in TFT panel that renders graphics at 800 x 600 px. A 256,000-color palette and wide viewing angles make status icons, trend graphs, and alarm messages easy to read. The capacitive touch screen lets operators acknowledge faults or change parameters without an external keyboard. Behind the display, a 2 GHz Celeron processor executes visualization tasks while 512 MB of main memory holds the operating system, runtime, and user screens. Up to 8 MB of video memory supports smooth refresh of complex mimic diagrams and soft keys even when multiple windows are open. This arrangement supports responsive visualization in control systems that use IndraMotion or third-party PLCs.

Network and expansion resources are sized for typical machine-level demands. A built-in 10/100 Base-T interface links the panel to plant Ethernet rings or directly to a drive controller. Local fieldbus or specialty boards can be added through 6 PCI slots. Two rear-mounted Type-A USB ports accept service sticks or barcode readers, while the front side intentionally has no USB opening to maintain the IP65 seal. The graphite gray bezel measures 360 mm in width and 300 mm in height, matching standard cabinet cutouts, and the touch glass sits flush for easy cleaning. With no front USB connector, fewer gaskets are required, which helps preserve ingress protection in washdown or dusty environments.
