The LED backlighting can be set to white, green, red, or yellow. This color adjustment can also be applied to specific synoptic displays to indicate plant statuses, such as alarms. This eliminates the need for additional optical signaling components. This compact panel is operated via ten integrated and configurable function keys. The keys are operated like those on a mobile phone, enabling quick and intuitive entry of numbers and words. The Simatic KP 300 Basic mono PN is designed for integration into Profinet networks and optimized for use with the Simatic S7-1200 controller. The Simatic HMI Basic Panels series
includes models with screen sizes ranging from 4 to 15 inches diagonally. The panels can be configured using the Simatic WinCC V11 engineering software, which is part of the new Totally Integrated Automation Portal.
