Product Description:

The VSP40.3BIG-1G0NN-C2D-DN-NN-FW terminal is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the VSP IndraControl Terminals series. Designed as a panel-mounted industrial PC, it combines visualization with machine operation inside automated lines. By merging a touchscreen, fixed function keys, and PC-based control, the unit acts as the human-machine interface that links field devices to higher-level PLCs and diagnostic software. Its sealed front permits installation on enclosure doors, while the rear PC box houses the computing electronics; this layout simplifies wiring and reduces cabinet depth.

On the visual side, a 15 in TFT panel presents graphics at 1024 × 768 px, so status messages remain easy to read without pixel scaling. The front of the display carries an IP65 rating, allowing washdown cleaning when the terminal is flush-mounted. Inside the PC box, a Celeron 440 processor handles runtime tasks while the pre-installed 1 GB of RAM supports real-time visualization. The electronics run from a 24 VDC supply and dissipate up to 160 W, a figure that guides cabinet cooling calculations. Two Ethernet ports provide network redundancy or separate fieldbus and enterprise links.

The rear housing carries an IP20 ingress rating because it sits inside the cabinet, and it contains five PCI slots and one PCIe slot for motion, fieldbus, or image-processing cards. Sixteen machine function keys allow direct triggering of PLC events without touching the screen. External peripherals connect through 8 USB ports, while legacy devices connect through an RS232 serial interface. Graphics expansion is limited to 8 MB of video memory, which is adequate for the panel resolution used here. System memory can be expanded to 4 GB, which increases data buffering and soft-PLC performance when complex visualization projects are loaded.
