Overview
SIMATIC HMI Panels – Brilliant HMI devices
for efficient machine-level HMI
A complete range of powerful and innovative HMI devices is
available for implementing efficient, machine-level HMI solutions
in the most diverse applications and industries. One unique and
highly efficient feature is the integrated configuration via
SIMATIC WinCC in the TIA Portal, with which the user can
achieve significant savings with regard to engineering time,
costs and effort.

Key Panels – Innovative operator panels – Pre-assembled
and ready to use
Key Panels (KP) are the innovative alternative to conventionally
wired operator keypads. The pre-assembled and ready-to-use
bus-enabled operator panels ensure time savings of up to 60 %
during installation and reductions in material costs of more than
30 %.

Basic Panels – Basic functions for simple
HMI applications
The 2nd Generation Basic Panels are optimized for small
machines and applications. The device family offers panels
with high-resolution widescreen displays in sizes from 4" to 12",
as well as combined key and touch operation. Variants can be
selected for connection to PROFINET/Ethernet or
PROFIBUS DP/MPI.

Comfort Panels – The first choice for demanding
HMI tasks
Comfort Panels offer high-end functionality for demanding appli-
cations. They are especially powerful and equipped with high-
resolution widescreen displays in sizes from 4" to 22", with a
choice of touch screen (TP) or keypad (KP) operation. In size 4"
also with touch screen and additional keys (KTP).
The Comfort Panels are equipped with PROFINET/Ethernet as
well as PROFIBUS DP/MPI interfaces.
The Comfort product line is expanded by extremely rugged day-
light-readable Outdoor Panels.
The Outdoor Panels are especially well suited for outdoor areas
and therefore open up many new application areas – oil plat-
forms, ships, from the engine room to the bridge, and many other
outdoor applications. Outdoor Panels especially stand out due
to their expanded temperature range, special daylight-readable
displays, UV resistance and corrosion-resistant fronts.

Mobile Panels – Power and safety in your hands
The 2nd Generation Mobile Panels are portable, wired operator
panels with high performance for demanding mobile applica-
tions and operator control and monitoring with direct access and
line of sight to the process. They offer a choice of high-resolution
7" and 9" widescreen displays with a unique illuminated
EMERGENCY STOP button, flexible evaluation options for the
safety operating elements, and connection point detection. For
wireless freedom with optional safety functionality, the
Mobile Panel 277(F) IWLAN 8" is offered.
