Features:
- The 5.7-inch blue-mode display presents configured process values, alarms, and operator controls.
- Analog-resistive touch input replaces dedicated function keys with project-defined screen objects.
- MPI and PROFIBUS DP exchange HMI tags and operator commands with supported SIMATIC controllers.
Siemens 6AV6642-0AA11-0AX1 turns controller data into configured screens and returns touch selections as project variables.
Flash storage in 6AV6642-0AA11-0AX1 retains the runtime project and recipe data without a removable card.
The installed front of 6AV6642-0AA11-0AX1 seals the operator side while the rear remains inside the cabinet.
The Siemens 6AV6642-0AA11-0AX1 SIMATIC TP 177A 5.7-Inch Touch Panel may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
Operator Screen and Input Surface
- Display mode: The STN panel renders two blue levels at 320 x 240 pixels.
- Touch layer: The analog-resistive surface converts pressure at a screen position into the configured operator action.
- Screen objects: Text, I/O fields, bars, diagrams, graphics, and lists are placed by the HMI project.
- Service tools: Touch calibration and clean-screen functions support alignment and maintenance.
Controller and Transfer Connections
- RS485 path: The panel communicates with supported SIMATIC controllers through MPI or PROFIBUS DP.
- Serial interface: The additional RS422 connection supports the documented service configuration.
- Project transfer: Runtime data can be downloaded through MPI, PROFIBUS DP, or the serial route.
- Data-rate limit: The RS485 connection operates up to 1.5 Mbit/s.
Screens, Alarms and Recipes
- Process variables: Up to 500 configured variables connect screen objects with controller data.
- Alarm handling: The project can contain 1000 messages with acknowledgment groups and process values.
- Recipe storage: Five recipes use integrated flash for up to 20 records with 20 entries each.
- Language selection: Five runtime languages can be selected from as many as 32 project languages.
Front Seal and Cabinet Side
- Front boundary: The installed operator front reaches IP65 and NEMA 4X protection.
- Rear boundary: The electronics behind the cutout remain IP20 and require enclosure protection.
- Inclination limit: A vertical installation may incline up to 35 degrees without external ventilation.
- Temperature range: The panel operates from 0 to 50 °C and stores or transports from -20 to 60 °C.
