The Siemens 6AV2124-0QC02-0AX2 SIMATIC HMI TP1500 Comfort is a 15.4-inch widescreen TFT touch panel with 1280x800 resolution and 16.7 million colors, built for PROFINET and PROFIBUS/MPI networks. It runs on 24 V DC, draws 41 W typical, and holds 24 MB of configuration memory under Windows Embedded Compact 2013.
The 15.4-inch widescreen with 1280x800 resolution gives more room for complex mimic screens than the smaller Comfort panels in the same TP/KTP family — pick it when a project's screen layout needs the extra width rather than a compact footprint. Two Industrial Ethernet ports wired as a 2-port switch let it be daisy-chained into a PROFINET line without an external switch. The combined RS 485/422 interface plus MPI/PROFIBUS DP keeps it usable on legacy S7-300 systems as well as PROFINET-only S7-1500 lines, which narrows the gap versus PROFINET-only Comfort variants. IP65 at the front supports door-mounting in washdown or dusty cabinet fronts, while the 24 MB configuration memory caps how much recipe, alarm history, and multi-language text can be stored on board.
Machine-side operator stations, line HMI panels on mixed PROFINET/PROFIBUS plants, and cabinet-door mounted interfaces needing IP65 front sealing with MPI legacy connectivity.
