SIMATIC HMI TP900 Comfort 9-inch Touch Panel PROFINET and PROFIBUS (6AV2124-0JC01-0AX0) CAN Electric — Industrial Automation Parts Supplier

What is 6AV2124-0JC01-0AX0?

It is the SIMATIC HMI TP900 Comfort 9-inch Touch Panel PROFINET and PROFIBUS — the 9-inch standard device of the SIMATIC HMI Comfort Panels, with a 9-inch widescreen TFT at 800 × 480 pixels, analog-resistive touch operation, PROFINET plus MPI/PROFIBUS DP interfaces, 12 MB user memory and Windows CE 6.0, engineered in the TIA Portal with WinCC Comfort V11 or higher.

Is the TP900 Comfort discontinued?

No. Siemens lists order number 6AV2124-0JC01-0AX0 as PM300 — active product, with no phase-out announced. This is the main difference from the 7-inch TP700 Comfort (6AV2124-0GC01-0AX0), which carries a PM400 phase-out notice — so if you are choosing between the two for a new machine, the 9-inch type is the safer long-term option.

Does the 9-inch screen have a higher resolution than the 7-inch?

No. Both run at 800 × 480 pixels, so the 9-inch panel shows the same amount of information on a physically larger screen. The practical benefit is larger pixels and larger touch targets, not more screen real estate. If you need more pixels, look at the 12-inch TP1200 Comfort at 1280 × 800.

Is the touch screen capacitive or resistive?

It is an analog-resistive touch screen, which is the standard for Comfort Panels. Projected-capacitive multi-touch is a feature of the separate Unified Comfort Panels line, not of this device.

Does it have PROFINET and PROFIBUS?

Both, as separate built-in interfaces: one PROFINET / Industrial Ethernet port and one MPI/PROFIBUS DP (RS-422/485) interface. No additional communication module is needed for either network.

Can I load a TP900 Comfort project onto a Unified Comfort Panel?

Not directly. Comfort Panels are engineered with WinCC Comfort in the TIA Portal; Unified Comfort Panels use WinCC Unified. The two are different engineering systems, so a project has to be reworked rather than copied across.

Which software do I need to configure it?

The TIA Portal with WinCC Comfort V11 or higher. It is not configured with WinCC Basic (used for Basic Panels) and not with WinCC Unified Basic (used for Unified Basic Panels).

What power supply does it need?

24 V DC with a permissible range of 19.2 – 28.8 V DC, current consumption 0.75 A and a typical power input of about 18 W.

Which PLCs can it connect to?

Over PROFINET, MPI or PROFIBUS DP it couples to SIMATIC S7-1200, S7-1500 and S7-300/400 controllers. It also supports Modbus TCP/IP and EtherNet/IP for third-party controllers and drives.

Does it support SD cards and USB?

Yes — two SD card slots for archiving and project storage, two USB 2.0 host ports and one USB Mini-B port for project transfer and peripherals such as barcode readers or a keyboard.

What display and backlight does it have?

A 9-inch widescreen TFT with 800 × 480 pixels and 16,777,216 colors, with dimmable LED backlighting rated for an MTBF of 80,000 hours at 25 °C.

Is it suitable for harsh environments?

The front is an aluminium die-cast panel rated IP65 (NEMA 4 / 4X) and the rear is IP20, with an operating temperature of 0 °C to +50 °C. For washdown, outdoor or hazardous-area installation the Outdoor Comfort variants are the correct choice rather than this standard device.
