Featuring an active matrix display for high quality graphics across the full width of the screen, the new monitor provides all users of PC-based control or Scada systems with the clearest available presentation of process and diagnostic information.
The new 20in flat panel monitor has been designed to fit into existing 18in cutouts, making it easy for manufacturers to take advantage of the larger screen size.
Part of the complete VersaView range of industrial PCs and monitors, the 2000M benefits from Rockwell Automation's global support, allowing OEMs to install it confident their customers will enjoy unrivalled technical support and parts back-up.
The IP65-rated VersaView 2000M is designed for quick and easy mounting in a control panel or rack, and a stainless steel option is available for food processing applications or other demanding environments.
Configuration of the monitor is also straightforward, with all the necessary drivers provided on a CD-ROM and single-button setup, and the Digital Video Interface connection enables installation further from the PC than an analogue cable.
With a choice of Windows 2000, XP and CE operating systems, a wide selection of processors and monitors available in sizes ranging from 12 to 20in, the modular VersaView range makes it easy to specify a PC-based control and monitoring system exactly suited to the application.
Today's machine control and information systems provide operators with more process and diagnostic data than ever before, enabling manufacturers to improve efficiency and reduce downtime.
The new Allen-Bradley VersaView 2000M is among the largest industrial PC monitors currently on the market, and by allowing this wealth of information to be displayed more clearly helps to reduce downtime and improve productivity.
