Technicians interface this HMI panel directly via an RS-232 serial communication port to execute timer\/counter setpoint modifications and runtime message monitoring. The internal logic processes PLC-driven display output across a 2x16 character backlit LCD, accessing up to 200 stored messages without drawing additional logic processing power from the central controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIC200DTX450-BC (IC200DTX450)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Fanuc \/ Emerson\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.38 kg to 0.40 kg (0.84 lbs to 0.88 lbs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard VersaMax panel footprint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 deg C to +50 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 mA at 24 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVersaMax PLC platforms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x 16 character backlit LCD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeypad \/ Input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 programmable function keys\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunication Port\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS-232 serial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMessage Storage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 200 stored messages\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtection Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNEMA 4 (front panel)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProgramming Tool\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDataDesigner (IC752DDZ000)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBackplane Bus Communication Velocity \u0026amp; Deterministic Network Scaling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe operator interface relies on dedicated serial transfer timings to match backplane bus communication velocity constraints within VersaMax sub-racks. Internal buffer memory stores 200 pre-configured text strings, reducing network bandwidth demands during cyclic update loops. Optoelectronic barriers isolate the internal 24 VDC supply lines from field disturbance transients, preserving communication signal integrity across RS-232 serial runs. In addition, specialized configuration routines via DataDesigner software enforce strict firmware flash compatibility when binding function key targets to PLC memory registers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How do technicians configure key mappings and text string outputs on the panel?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Engineers program custom message strings and assign the six front-panel function keys using DataDesigner configuration software (IC752DDZ000) before uploading project files to the module.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What power source feeds the IC200DTX450-BC panel during field operation?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module draws operating power directly from a 24 VDC auxiliary loop, consuming a maximum continuous current of 40 mA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can operators input numeric setpoints directly into the unit without an alphanumeric keypad?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Operators adjust numerical data by utilizing the six programmable function keys configured as increment, decrement, and entry selection triggers inside the PLC logic program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnicians must mount the display panel securely into the enclosure door cutout, ensuring the NEMA 4 front gasket compresses evenly against the panel surface to seal out dust and moisture. Connect the 24 VDC auxiliary power leads using correct polarity to prevent internal fuse damage. Route the RS-232 communication cable through dedicated wire channels away from AC motor drives and high-voltage supply lines to eliminate serial noise. Ground the cable shield wire directly to the enclosure ground terminal using a low-impedance connection prior to energizing the control system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GE Fanuc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44521492447331,"sku":"IC200DTX450-BC","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/5246\/8067\/files\/40._35050451-a262-4e0d-93cb-2d4bef5ad80d.jpg?v=1787821575","url":"https:\/\/www.autocontrolglobal.com\/products\/ge-ic200dtx450-bc-data-panel-45-hmi-operator-interface","provider":"AutoControl Global","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
