I've a customer who's been building a particular system repetitively for about 8 years using a Panelview 600 (2711-K6C5) connected to a micrologix 1500 LRP over DH485 (serial port).
As that line of panelviews is now silver and I have only a few left in stock, I need to migrate to a plus model. We need to stick with same comms, AC power, same size cutout etc so when an old unit blows up we can change it out swiftly without hassle.
So I thought the model I might go to was '2711-K7C4A1' but upon requesting a price I was told that too was 'not a current product'. Some more reading leads me to '2711P-K7C4A' Is this the best selection given the criteria?
One supplier just quoted me and never mentioned the product wasn't current even though I made it clear I was migrating from the PV 600, the other supplier told me it wasn't current but offered no further information. I keep reading but it never seems clear... I"m sure there are plenty of people here with an answer!
