Common Failures
Failure patterns we regularly see on PanelView Plus keypad + touch terminal hardware like the 2711P-B6C8A:
- No power LED on 24V DC input: failed electrolytic capacitors, input fuse or DC-DC converter on the power supply board
- Touch digitizer unresponsive, drifting or registering ghost touches: worn analog-resistive overlay
- Cracked bezel or compressed gasket allowing washdown ingress
- Hangs on the splash screen: control board flash or firmware corruption
- Touch controller fault: calibration drifts back within days of a recalibration
Fault code reference
2711P-B6C8A Fault Codes
20 codes · 2711P-UM001
Fault codes a PanelView Plus keypad + touch terminal reports on the screen at start-up (error number with an ERROR! message) and the Fault (red) and Comm (green) indicators, as documented in Rockwell Automation publication 2711P-UM001. Use them to narrow a problem down to the unit, its wiring or the application before sending it in for repair.
Start-up error messages
| Error # | Displayed message | What it indicates |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RAM Test | RAM test failure. Reset the terminal; if it persists, reseat the SO-DIMM (700…1500). A persistent failure is a logic board fault. |
| 14 | RAM Header Check | The OS firmware being downloaded is not compatible with the hardware (400/600 terminals). |
| 20 | Transfer Image | Programming the downloaded OS firmware into flash failed (400/600 terminals). |
| 23 | Download Task / Internal CF | Firmware image too large (400/600), or an error programming firmware to the internal CompactFlash (700…1500). |
| 24 | CRC Check | Checksum of the OS firmware failed; reload firmware. Persistent failures point to the internal CompactFlash or logic module. |
| 25 | Invalid Prod Family | The OS firmware being downloaded is not for this terminal family (400/600 terminals). |
| 27 | Decompress System | Error decompressing the OS firmware from flash to RAM (400/600 terminals). |
| 30 | Watchdog Test | Watchdog test failure; reload firmware, then suspect the logic module. |
| 31 | Stuck Key | A function key is held or stuck. Make sure nothing presses on the keypad (on the 400/600, tap F1 rather than holding it to enter Configuration mode) and reset; persistent failures mean the keypad / display module. |
| 31.5 | Stuck Touch | Touch screen reports a constant touch (700…1500 terminals). Remove anything pressing on the screen, including a damaged anti-glare overlay, and reset; persistent failures mean the display module. |
Show 5 more codes
| 32 | Battery Test | Battery failure (700…1500 terminals). Fit a new battery; if it persists, the fault is on the logic module. |
| 33.5 | NVRAM Access | Nonvolatile memory failure (700…1500 terminals); upgrade system firmware to 3.10.03 or later. |
| 3a | Stuck Touch | Touch screen reports a constant touch (400/600 terminals). Remove anything pressing on the screen, including a damaged anti-glare overlay, and reset; persistent failures mean the terminal. |
| 40 | EXE Check | System OS firmware is missing or corrupt; reload firmware. |
| 50 | External CF | Error loading OS firmware from the external CompactFlash card. |
Status indicator states if the terminal stops during start-up
| Indicators | State | What it indicates |
|---|---|---|
| Fault blinking · Comm off | Last firmware download failed | Recoverable: reload the firmware with the Firmware Upgrade Wizard. |
| Fault blinking · Comm blinking | Boot loader firmware failed or missing | Recoverable: reload the firmware with the Firmware Upgrade Wizard. |
| Fault blinking · Comm on | Windows CE OS firmware failed or missing | Recoverable: reload the firmware with the Firmware Upgrade Wizard. |
| Fault on · Comm off | Fatal hardware error | Hardware fault in the logic module (700…1500) or the terminal's logic board (400/600). |
| Fault on · Comm blinking | Fatal hardware error in display | Hardware fault in the display module (700…1500) or the terminal's display section (400/600). |
Where the manual's only remedy for a code is to replace the unit or module, the code is pointing at a hardware fault inside that part. Those are the faults NJT Automation repairs at component level, so a repair quote is usually the first thing to check before buying a replacement.
