REXRTOH IndraControl VDP series operation display

REXRTOH IndraControl VDP series operation display terminal: A complete guide to professional integration and application

In modern industrial automation systems, a reliable and intuitive human-machine interface (HMI) is the key to achieving efficient monitoring and operation. The IndraControl VDP series of operation display terminals launched by Bosch Rexroth has become the preferred choice for many mechanical equipment manufacturers due to its sturdy design, clear display, and flexible configuration. This article is based on the official technical document (R911336378_03), providing a comprehensive and in-depth professional analysis of the series of products, aiming to provide engineers and technicians with full process guidance from selection, installation to maintenance.

Product Overview and Target Positioning

The IndraControl VDP series belongs to passive operation and visualization terminals, which need to be used in conjunction with Bosch Rexroth control cabinet PC to form a complete PC based operation terminal solution. This document is mainly aimed at technical personnel of mechanical equipment manufacturers, guiding them to safely and correctly carry out mechanical and electrical installation and equipment debugging.

Product Scope: The document applies to all variants with model codes starting with "VDPxx. 3..." and not containing "... CG...". Users can confirm the model code on the device type nameplate (located on the back panel).

Core design concept: VDP terminals are designed for harsh industrial environments, with a front panel protection level of up to IP65 (compliant with DIN EN 60529), meeting NEMA Type 1 (UL) standards, effectively dustproof and waterproof, and adaptable to complex workshop environments.

2、 Detailed explanation of model series and technical specifications

The IndraControl VDP series mainly includes three screen size models to meet the display area and resolution requirements of different application scenarios.

IndraControl VDP 16.3

Display screen: 12.1-inch TFT LCD screen with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, supporting 16.7 million colors.

Variants: mainly include DB (standard light gray, with front USB), AK (customized graphite gray, without front USB), BK (standard light gray, with front USB), etc. The front panel size of AK version is slightly larger (360mm x 300mm), while the standard version is 350mm x 290mm.

Power consumption: rated voltage DC 24V, current consumption of about 0.85A, power consumption of about 20W.

Weight: Approximately 4.0 kg.

IndraControl VDP 40.3

Display screen: 15 inch TFT LCD screen with increased resolution to 1024 x 768 pixels and 16.7 million colors.

Variants: More diverse, including DE (touch screen), BI (buttons), DF (touch screen+buttons), DG, DI (touch screen+switch components), and AL (customized graphite gray, no front USB), etc. The standard version has a front panel size of 407mm x 370mm, while the AL version has a size of 417mm x 380mm.

Power consumption: The current consumption is about 1.05A, and the power consumption is about 25W.

Weight: Approximately 5.8 kg.

IndraControl VDP 60.3

Display screen: 19 inch TFT LCD screen, providing high resolution of 1280 x 1024, with the maximum amount of information displayed.

Operation: Mainly for touch screen operation (FE model).

Size: The front panel size is 483mm x 400mm.

Power consumption: The current consumption is about 1.7A, and the power consumption is about 40W, which is the highest in the series.

Weight: Approximately 7.3 kg.

Common technical features:

Voltage supply: The entire series is powered by DC 24V Safe Extra Low Voltage (SELV), and it is recommended to use industrial power supplies that comply with DIN EN 60742 standards, such as the Bosch Rexroth VAP01.1H series (part number R911171065).

USB interface: The back connection board of the device usually provides 4 USB Type-A host interfaces (XUSB1/2, XUSB3/4), and some models are also equipped with USB interfaces with IP65 protective covers on the front panel. Important limitation: The maximum output current of each USB port is 500mA, and the total current of all USB ports must not exceed 1A, otherwise it may cause the device power protection to be turned off.

Installation method: The installation depth for all models is 41mm, using a front panel installation method. Eight M4 mounting bolts are inserted into the opening from the front of the equipment and fixed with nuts at the back.

Core Interface and Connection Specification

Correct electrical connections are the cornerstone of stable equipment operation. The VDP terminal back connection board integrates all necessary interfaces.

Power interface (X1S1):

Type: 3-pin MC1.5/3-G-3.5 THT connector.

Pin definition: 1 pin (+24V), 2 pins (0V), 3 pins (empty). Copper wires must be used for connection.

Important notice: If the distance between VDP and control cabinet PC exceeds 50 meters and a non isolated power supply is used, balanced current may be generated due to pin 2 being internally connected to the casing. At this time, an isolated power supply must be used.

CDI interface (communication and display interface):
