InView System Connectivity
This chapter demonstrates how the InView display connects to control
networks. In the following chapters we show controller configuration
and sample ladder for serial ASCII networks. This chapter also
discusses how to set-up the display attributes, communications and
create messages.
Serial ASCII
Communications Refer to Chapter 3 for more information on Serial ASCII
communications from Channel Zero of an Allen-Bradley controller.
Serial Connections
Features The features are separated into sections for the 2706-P4x and
2706-P7x displays and the 2706-P22R displays.
2706-P42, 2706-P43, 2706-P44, 2706-P72, and 2706-P74 Displays
These displays operate at 100 to 240V ac. They have an eight position
terminal block that contains an auxiliary +5V dc, RS-232 signals, and
RS-485 signals. There is also an RJ-12 port that is in parallel with the
RS-232 signals from the terminal block. The RJ-12 port is used
primarily for downloading messages to the display via the
2706-PCABLE1 download cable.
