BuiltĆin Clock
The battery-backed clock runs even when the terminal is powered down.
PanelView 1200 can display the current time and date and can send it to
the PLC controller. The clock may also be set by the PLC controller.
Audio and Visual Feedback
A PanelView 1200 terminal can be configured to:
activate a beeper each time a function button or touch cell is pressed
light up a screen button (if it has a border) when its function key or
touch cell is pressed.
allow the PLC controller to activate the beeper at the terminal
allow Alarm Messages to activate the beeper at the terminal
Alarm Relay
You can attach a horn or a warning light to the PanelView 1200 terminal’s
alarm relay. Relay connections are made via the terminal block labeled
“Alarm Contacts” at the rear of the terminal. Specific alarm messages, or a
PLC program, can then trigger the relay.
Attention The Alarm Relay must be used only as a warning
system, not for control purposes.
RSĆ232 Port
All PanelView 1200 terminals include one RS-232 port for printing on-line
alarm messages, uploading and downloading application files, and printing
screens.
