More Information

Overview Manuals Display & Touch Project Memory Communication Panel Mounting

Features:

  • A 5.7-inch analog-resistive touch surface controls the 320 x 240 blue-mode operator display.
  • RS 422/RS 485 communication links the panel to PROFIBUS DP and supported serial systems.
  • Two megabytes of user memory hold the configured screens, alarms, recipes, and runtime objects.
Siemens 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 converts touch positions into HMI commands while updating displayed values from the connected controller.

The communication port of 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 carries the configured PROFIBUS or serial protocol independently of its USB peripheral connection.

Cabinet installation of 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 keeps the protected front accessible and the IP20 rear inside the enclosure.

The Siemens 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 SIMATIC TP177B Touch Operator Panel may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Siemens 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 SIMATIC TP177B Touch Operator Panel Manuals,Datasheets,Link 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 Input and Screen Output

  • Touch layer: The analog-resistive surface translates the pressed screen position into a runtime command.
  • Pixel field: The STN panel presents the project at 320 x 240 pixels.
  • Color mode: Four blue levels distinguish graphics, text, states, and backgrounds.
  • Backlight: The documented backlight supports the configured screen without changing panel resolution.

Runtime Data and Configuration

  • Engineering: WinCC flexible creates and transfers the HMI project for this panel generation.
  • User capacity: Two megabytes are available for project-related data and runtime objects.
  • Alarm handling: Configured messages are displayed and acknowledged through the touch interface.
  • Recipe handling: Recipe records use the panel project and storage resources rather than controller program memory.

Controller and Peripheral Paths

  • Field interface: RS 422/RS 485 carries PROFIBUS DP or the supported serial protocol.
  • Bus rate: PROFIBUS communication is specified up to 12 Mbit/s.
  • USB host: A supported USB peripheral uses a separate host connection.
  • Network boundary: This exact TP177B variant has no integrated Ethernet interface.

Protection and Cabinet Boundary

  • Front face: IP65 protection applies at the operator side when the panel is correctly installed.
  • Rear enclosure: The IP20 rear section remains within the cabinet or console.
  • Orientation: Permitted inclination and ventilation clearance must follow the installation conditions.
  • Power entry: The panel receives its operating energy from a 24 V DC source.
Description
Siemens 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 is a SIMATIC TP177B operator panel for local machine visualization and touch-based control. Its 5.7-inch STN display renders a 320 x 240 project in four blue levels, while the analog-resistive surface sends operator selections to the configured HMI runtime.

Project data for 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 is created with WinCC flexible and stored in 2 MB of user memory. The panel exchanges process values over its RS 422/RS 485 connection, which supports PROFIBUS DP and documented serial communication instead of an Ethernet port.

Through the USB host on 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1, an approved printer or supported external device can be connected separately from the controller network. Alarm logging, recipe data, and screen objects remain constrained by the configured project and available panel memory.

Installation of 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 places its IP65 front at the operator side of the enclosure while the rear remains IP20. The mounting cutout, permissible inclination, ventilation clearance, and 24 V DC supply must therefore be checked at the cabinet boundary before wiring the communication interface.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Does 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 provide an Ethernet port?
No. Siemens 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 communicates through RS 422/RS 485 and USB, without an integrated Ethernet interface.
Why can a WinCC project fail to transfer or run correctly on 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1?
Configure the exact 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 target in a supported WinCC flexible release and select its documented transfer interface; settings for a later Ethernet panel do not apply.
Why is the front protection of 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 different from the rear?
The installed front of 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 can reach IP65, while its IP20 rear must remain protected inside the enclosure.
Can a color project be displayed on 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1?
The 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 uses four blue levels, so project graphics must suit its blue-mode STN display rather than a full-color palette.
What limits PROFIBUS wiring for 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1?
The RS 485 bus segment for 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 must follow PROFIBUS topology, termination, cable, address, and 12 Mbit/s rate rules.
What should be checked when the project for 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 exceeds panel capacity?
The runtime project and related data for 6AV6642-0BC01-1AX1 must fit the documented 2 MB user memory; removable media does not increase the panel runtime memory.
