NT2S-SF122B-E Overview
A human-machine interface is an industrial operator panel that translates machine or controller data into visible status, alarms, messages, and controls. The NT2S series belongs to the broader HMI and operator-terminal category, sitting between a simple indicator panel and a graphical touch-screen terminal. This model is intended for applications where a compact alphanumeric display and dedicated function keys are preferable to a larger touchscreen.
The NT2S-SF122B-E supports programmable or message-display operation according to the retrieved product information. Its two programmable LED indicators can provide machine-state or process feedback, while the six function keys can be assigned to user-defined operations. Password protection is also listed as a product feature, supporting controlled access to panel functions and operating information.
The NT2S family is programmed through Omron NT2ST software and is used with compatible Omron PLCs or controllers. The verified material references both peripheral-port connection and RS-232C connection options across the NT2S family, but the exact wiring and communication details for this specific MPN must be confirmed in the official product documentation. The series documentation also identifies programmable terminals for simple control tasks, with compact dimensions and shallow installation depth.
Typical uses include machine status indication, production-line monitoring, pump or motor control, small equipment setup, and PLC-linked operator panels. The alphanumeric LCD is particularly useful where only short messages, counters, setpoints, or status lines are required. The six keys provide a tactile interface that can be used without a touchscreen, while the programmable LEDs can visually indicate operating conditions.
For design planning, verify the panel cutout, controller connection method, supply arrangement, and programming software against the Omron documentation for the exact model. This page distinguishes verified catalog information from unspecified dimensions, electrical ratings, and lifecycle details rather than estimating missing values.

Typical Applications
NT2S-SF122B-E is suitable for 6 applications: Machine Status Monitoring, Small PLC Control Panel, Production Counter Display, Pump and Motor Control, Alarm and Message Display, Small Equipment Setup Panel.
Machine Status Monitoring
The NT2S-SF122B-E is useful for a compact machine-status panel because its 2x16 monochrome LCD can present short operating states, counters, and alarm text, while the six function keys can trigger common actions. The two programmable LED indicators provide visual feedback for run, stop, fault, or ready states without requiring a larger display. Install the unit in a 1/8 DIN cutout and connect it to the compatible controller. Because the verified data does not provide exact dimensions or communication limits, confirm those details in the model documentation.
Recommended
Small PLC Control Panel
For simple PLC control applications, the NT2S-SF122B-E provides a compact alphanumeric interface rather than a full graphical terminal. Operators can view setpoints and status text on the 2x16 LCD and use the six programmable keys for select, reset, start, stop, or mode commands. The verified family documentation links NT2S programming with Omron PLC workflows. Verify the exact peripheral-port or RS-232C arrangement for this MPN before wiring, since the family includes multiple connection configurations.
Recommended
Production Counter Display
The 2-line by 16-character display is well suited to production counters where information must remain short and readable at a glance. A counter value can occupy one line while the second line can show a label, batch identifier, or state message. The six keys allow operators to acknowledge counts, reset a counter, or change screens, and the two programmable LEDs can indicate production or fault conditions. Confirm display character limits, update behavior, and programming limits in the official Omron documentation.
Recommended
Pump and Motor Control
The NT2S-SF122B-E can serve as a local operator interface for pumps, motors, and auxiliary equipment where start-stop control and state indication are required. The six tactile keys can be assigned to functions such as run, stop, reset, or speed selection, while the programmable LEDs can report active, standby, or fault conditions. Its compact panel format is useful where machine space is limited. The exact supply voltage, connector pinout, and safety interlocks must be confirmed from the official documentation and the machine design.
Recommended
Alarm and Message Display
The NT2S-SF122B-E is appropriate for compact alarm panels because the 2x16 LCD can show short alarm messages and the six keys can support acknowledgement, reset, or navigation actions. Two programmable LED indicators can provide an at-a-glance warning or status indication in addition to the text display. Password protection is listed among the product features, which may help restrict access to operating functions. The supported screen types, message lengths, and access-control behavior should be confirmed in the NT2ST documentation.
Recommended
Small Equipment Setup Panel
The NT2S-SF122B-E can provide a local setup interface for small equipment where operators need to enter a few values or choose among predefined operating modes. Its alphanumeric LCD is easier to implement reliably in a compact enclosure than a large graphical screen, while the programmable keys provide direct tactile input. The verified series documentation describes programmable terminals for simple control tasks and shallow installation depth. Confirm enclosure clearances, panel cutout, supply wiring, and communication settings before production use.

Key Differentiators
- Dedicated compact alphanumeric operator interface (vs NB series HMI models identified in the discontinuation notice)
- Integrated operator controls and indicators (vs NT2S-SF122B-EV2)
- Legacy NT2S programming ecosystem (vs NT2S-SF121B-E)
Design Notes
Design the enclosure around the documented 1/8 DIN panel cutout and the NT2S shallow-installation format, but obtain the official dimensional drawing before releasing tooling. Keep the operator-facing keys and two status LEDs visible in the intended machine posture. Because this is a panel-mounted HMI rather than a circuit-board module, connector access, front bezel clearance, and rear wiring space should be checked together in the mechanical CAD model.
Do not infer the complete supply arrangement from the 5 VDC-from-PLC listing alone. The verified family material also mentions 24 VDC power and the related SF121B-E has a separate additional 24 VDC connector. Verify the exact NT2S-SF122B-E connector pinout, supply tolerance, isolation, and controller compatibility in the official wiring documentation before connecting it to a PLC or machine supply.
The NT2S family includes multiple interface configurations, including peripheral-port and RS-232C connection types. Treat the family-level description as non-specific until the exact NT2S-SF122B-E wiring and communication settings are confirmed. Programming also requires an Omron NT2ST project with the correct controller communication parameters, tag definitions, screen data, and function-key assignments; copying a project without checking these items can produce a nonfunctional panel.
Compliance Information
The supplied verified data does not provide RoHS, REACH, lead-free, halogen-free, or conflict-minerals declarations for this exact MPN.
