Allen-Bradley 1201-HAS2​ Plug-In Human Interface Module for 1336 Series AC Drives

Description:

The 1201-HAS2​ is an Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation plug-in human-machine interface module (HIM) — a programmer and controller module with an integrated keypad and LCD screen — belonging to the 1336 Adjustable Frequency Drive accessories family (UPC 662072832288). It is catalogued as an accessory for the 1336 series and is now discontinued by the manufacturer.In plain terms, 1201-HAS2​ is the drive’s own operator face. Mounted on the front of the drive, it lets a technician program parameters, start, stop and jog the motor, read live operating values, and walk the fault and warning queues — all without connecting a laptop or loading configuration software. Note for buyers: some reseller listings mis-attribute this part number to ABB or GE; the correct manufacturer is Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation, and it is designed to operate exclusively with Allen-Bradley 1336 series drives.

Application Scenarios:

It is 02:00 at a wastewater pumping station. A 1336 PLUS II drive on a raw-water pump has tripped, the SCADA screen shows only “Drive Fault”, and the on-call technician has a laptop in the van but no licensed configuration software, no correct cable, and no patience for a midnight software install. What he needs is the drive to tell him what happened, in words, on the spot.That is the job 1201-HAS2​ was built for. On sites full of legacy Allen-Bradley drives — 1336, 1336 PLUS II, 1336 FORCE, 1336 IMPACT, 1336 REGEN — the HIM is the difference between a five-minute reset and an hour of guessing. The pain points it removes are consistent across water, cement, metals, mining, HVAC and general manufacturing:

  • No dependence on a PC — parameter setting, monitoring, fault diagnosis and commissioning done at the drive door with a keypad.
  • Faster fault resolution — the fault and warning queues are readable directly on the module, so “drive fault” becomes a specific, actionable code.
  • Local control when the network is down — start, stop, jog, speed reference and direction from the module itself, independent of PLC or SCADA.
  • Remote-mount flexibility — the HIM can be lifted out of its drive-mounted cradle and used remotely, which is how many panels give operators safe access without opening the enclosure.
  • Keeping an installed base alive — 1201-HAS2​ is discontinued, so a verified spare is what allows a healthy 1336 drive to stay in service instead of being written off as unsupportable.

The module divides into two logical sections, exactly as the 1336 FORCE documentation describes: a Display Panel for programming and viewing operating parameters, and a Control Panel (ESC / SEL / JOG) for commanding drive functions. That split is why operators with no programming background can still run the drive safely.

3. Parameter:

Main Parameters Value / Description
Product Model 1201-HAS2​ (plug-in Human Interface Module / programmer keypad)

Lifecycle Status Discontinued / obsolete by the manufacturer — available as new surplus or refurbished through the obsolete-parts channel

 

4. Technical Principles and Innovative Values:

Innovation Point 1 — Intelligence at the drive, not in the laptop: 1201-HAS2​ puts the full parameter set of a 1336 drive behind a keypad and screen mounted on the drive itself. Commissioning, tuning and troubleshooting become local acts. In an industry where the most expensive resource during a fault is a qualified technician’s time, removing the boot-the-laptop / find-the-cable / match-the-firmware loop is a genuine productivity gain.Innovation Point 2 — Two-panel architecture that separates viewing from commanding: The Display Panel handles programming and monitoring; the Control Panel with ESC, SEL and JOG handles drive commands. This physical separation means an operator can run the process without ever entering a parameter edit mode — a simple, effective safeguard against unintended configuration changes during production.Innovation Point 3 — Fault and warning queues on the front panel: Rather than a single “fault” LED, the HIM exposes the drive’s fault and warning history. Post-trip analysis starts immediately at the machine, which shortens diagnosis from “call the drives specialist” to “read the code, clear the cause, restart”.Innovation Point 4 — Built-in analog pot for real-world commissioning: The integrated analog potentiometer lets a technician jog a conveyor, inch a pump or sweep a fan speed by hand while watching actual current and speed on the same screen. Mechanical alignment, belt tracking and rotation checks all get faster and safer.Innovation Point 5 — Powered from the drive, no additional infrastructure: Running on 5 V DC at roughly 160 mA drawn from the host drive, 1201-HAS2​ adds no power supply, no wiring and no panel space beyond its own cutout. That is why it appears in the 1336 accessories catalogue as a drop-in option rather than a system project.Innovation Point 6 — Removable cradle design for remote operation: The HIM can be taken out of its drive-mounted cradle and operated remotely, supporting door-mounted or desk-mounted operator access. Rockwell’s documentation pairs this with a clear safety rule — a blank cover plate (option HAB) must be fitted when the HIM is absent — so the design protects people as well as equipment.Innovation Point 7 — One interface across an entire drive family: Because the 1336 family was designed with common control interface functions across the whole power range — from fractional kilowatt up to several hundred kilowatt — a technician who knows 1201-HAS2​ can work on every 1336 drive in the plant. Training and maintenance commonality is the quiet, compounding benefit here.
