Features:
- The 4.3-inch TFT presents 480 x 272 pixels in 16 million colors.
- Touch input and four illuminated function keys provide two distinct operator-control methods.
- PROFINET and MPI/PROFIBUS DP interfaces connect the panel to different controller networks.
The 6AV2124-2DC01-0AX0 uses a single runtime project to coordinate screens, alarm handling, recipes, archives, and operator permissions.
Ethernet, serial, USB, and SD interfaces serve different roles: controller communication, transfer, and removable storage are not interchangeable.
Mounting orientation and tilt affect the permitted ambient temperature even though the front protection remains dependent on correct panel installation.
The Siemens 6AV2124-2DC01-0AX0 KTP400 Comfort Operator Panel may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Operator Input Relationships
- Touch layer: The analog-resistive surface selects configured screen objects.
- Function keys: Four LED keys provide fixed physical controls alongside touch operation.
- Screen format: The 4.3-inch widescreen shows a 480 x 272 runtime image.
- Orientation: The configured project can support portrait or landscape installation.
Controller and Transfer Paths
- PROFINET port: Industrial Ethernet connects supported controllers and carries network transfer.
- RS 422/485 port: The combined serial interface provides the MPI or PROFIBUS DP connection.
- USB port: USB Mini-B is a service and transfer interface rather than a controller network switch.
- Protocol choice: The project selects the controller driver that corresponds to the physical interface and partner system.
Memory and Archive Flow
- Project memory: Four megabytes of user memory hold configured runtime objects and data.
- Alarm buffer: A retentive circulating buffer keeps the documented message entries.
- Recipe data: Recipes use internal memory and can be transferred through supported storage media.
- Archives: Alarm and process archives can be written to SD, USB, or Ethernet storage.
Panel Installation Boundaries
- Front seal: Correct cabinet mounting establishes the IP65 front protection.
- Rear enclosure: The rear remains IP20 and must stay inside the control enclosure.
- Inclination: Operation without external ventilation is specified up to a 35° tilt, with temperature derating.
- Portrait mounting: Portrait installation is supported but has a lower maximum ambient temperature than vertical landscape mounting.
