OP27, OP37 Equipment Manual
Release 05/99
Product Description
The implementation of Operator Panels OP27 and OP37 enables operating
statuses, current process values and faults in respect of a connected PLC to be
graphically represented and the machine or system to be monitored easily oper -
ated. In order to do this, the OPs are equipped with a lar ge number of standard
functions. The method of display and operation of the OPs can be customized
using the ProT ool configuration software to achieve optimum results in respect
of process requirements.
The OPs can be used to
 control and monitor the process by means of the menu system. In this way ,
setpoints can be entered, for example, in the form of value input or pressing
configured function keys or to control positioning elements;
 display processes, machines and systems on full–graphic and semi–graphic
screens;
 visualize event messages, alarm messages and process variables, such as
output fields, bar graphs, trends or status display;
 intervene directly in the process by means of the integrated keyboard.
The OPs are installation units for use directly at the machine location. The
degree of protection is high (front panel IP65), so the devices are suitable for
use in hostile industrial environments.
Installation locations for the units may be as follows:
OP27 OP37
Panels/Consoles Panels/Consoles
– 19” panels/racks
Before commissioning the OPs, they must be prepared for the task of visualiz -
ing data from the PLC. T o do this, data areas must be created in the PLC’ s
memory in the configuration; the data areas are used by the OP to communi -
cate with the PLC.
