Operator Interface
The OP17/DP combines a monochrome LC display with a membrane keyboard. Its operator interface supports structured text presentation and key-based machine operation without relying on a graphical touch panel. Display format
Up to 8 lines with 40 characters per line. Keyboard
24 programmable function keys, including 16 keys with LEDs, plus 22 system keys. Input modes
Numeric input and hexadecimal keyboard operation are supported; alphabetical input is not specified. |
Communication Layer
The DP version is intended for PROFIBUS-based operator communication. The interface set also includes serial interfaces for legacy integration and service arrangements.

OPERATOR WORKFLOW
Compact Text HMI for Legacy Control Environments
The combination of text display, programmable keys, status LEDs and field communication makes the OP17/DP suitable for machine-side operation where a compact text-oriented interface is preferred.
|
|
|
OP17/PP
Positioned within the same OP17 operator-panel family, the /PP variant is associated with the PPI-oriented communication configuration.
Family role
OP17 text-panel architecture with a different communication path. |
TARGET MODEL
OP17/DP
6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1
This version is the PROFIBUS-DP-oriented member of the OP17 family, with the RS-485 path supporting transmission up to 1.5 Mbit/s.
Key distinction
PROFIBUS-DP communication capability up to 1.5 Mbit/s. |
OP17/DP-12
Another OP17 family variant distinguished by its communication configuration. It should not be treated as a direct interchange merely because the mechanical operator-panel family is related.
Replacement check
Verify communication architecture and project configuration before substitution. |

01 · Can 6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1 be treated as a generic replacement for another OP17 panel?
Not automatically. OP17 family members can share a similar mechanical and operator concept while using different communication configurations. For a replacement, the exact order number, communication interface, project configuration and connected controller should be checked together.
|
|
02 · What should be verified when replacing 6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1 in an existing PROFIBUS-DP machine?
Verify the panel order number, PROFIBUS-DP communication path, configured station parameters, project compatibility and the existing machine wiring. The OP17/DP communication rate is specified up to 1.5 Mbit/s, so the network configuration should remain compatible with that limit.
|
|
03 · Is the 256 KB memory of 6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1 the same as a removable storage capacity?
No. The specified 256 KB is usable memory for user data implemented as Flash / RAM. The panel does not provide a USB port, PC card slot or CF card slot, so it should not be selected on the assumption that external removable storage is available.
|
|
04 · When is the optional battery relevant for 6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1?
The panel supports an optional 3.6 V backup battery. The battery-backed hardware clock is synchronizable, and the specified minimum backup duration is four years. This matters when retained timekeeping is required during power interruption.
|
|
05 · What physical condition should be checked before installing 6AV3617-1JC20-0AX1?
The front is rated IP65 while the rear is IP20, so installation should preserve the intended front sealing arrangement and protect the rear from conditions beyond its specified rating. The panel is designed for vertical mounting, with a maximum ±90° inclination without external ventilation.
