Energy Storage and Data Retention
Internal capacitors preserve screen data during brief power dips. The Siemens 6AV8100-0BB00-0AA1 maintains recipe data in non‑volatile EEPROM. This storage retains all parameters without battery backup. Consequently, you lose no configuration after power cycles.
Communication and PLC Compatibility
You connect this panel to Siemens PLCs via PROFINET or PROFIBUS. The Siemens 6AV8100-0BB00-0AA1 supports S7-1200, S7-1500, and S7-300 controllers. The panel acts as a PROFINET IO device on the network. Multiple panels can share the same network without additional hardware.
Configuration and Programming
You program the Siemens 6AV8100-0BB00-0AA1 using WinCC Basic software. Create screens with buttons, bar graphs, and trend displays. Download the project via the PROFINET or USB port. The panel stores the entire project in its internal flash memory. Therefore, no external storage media is necessary.
