Siemens 6AV3607-1JC20-0AX1

Siemens 6AV3607-1JC20-0AX1 Overview

The Siemens 6AV36071JC200AX1 is a mobile panel with a handwheel, a key-operated switch, and two illuminated push buttons. It falls under the product type category of Operator Panels, specifically the OP7 and OP17 models. These operator panels are designed to visualize operating states, process values, and malfunctions of a connected Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). They also allow for user inputs that can be directly written to the PLC. Additionally, certain machine diagnostics functions can be performed on the Operator Panel.

Function

The Operator Panels, including the OP7 and OP17, come with a range of standard functions. The configuration and operation of these devices can be optimized to meet the specific requirements of the process being controlled. They are suitable for installation in switching cabinets and control desks. An optional printer can be attached to the Operator Panel for logging processes during automation operations.

To prepare the OP7 or OP17 for its task of visualizing data from the PLC, it needs to be configured. The configuration is created on a computer using ProTool configuration software under Microsoft Windows. Once the configuration is completed, it is transferred to the Operator Panel after establishing a connection between the computer and the panel. After the configuration transfer, the Operator Panel is connected to the PLC for communication and to react to the programmed flows.

Display

The Operator Panels use screens to display process states and allow control of the process. Screens can show multiple data supplied by the PLC and can be modified as needed. Event messages provide information and operating notes about current machine and process states during regular production operations. Alarm messages indicate critical machine states and require acknowledgment before any further action can be taken.

Features

The Operator Panels also support the use of recipes, which store information about the composition of a product made up of different ingredients in specific ratios. Help text provides additional information and operator instructions related to event messages, alarm messages, and screens. Messages, screens, help text, and system messages can be displayed in multiple languages, allowing operators to select their preferred language.

The OP7 Operator Panel has a plastic housing with a touch-sensitive front. It is designed for ungrounded installation and complies with the machinery directive EN 60204. The OP7 is available in different versions, such as OP7/PP, OP7/DP, and OP7/DP-12, which vary in their communication options.
