Operator Panel Accessories: What Customers Add to the Cart with the Pulpit
Operator-panel options form a separate aisle that customers usually open up two or three weeks after buying the VFD or HMI. The most common picks at our shop: a door-mount pulpit (because the stock one on the VFD case is buried inside the cabinet), a 1/3/5 m extension cable for remote mounting, a USB cable for Zelio Logic firmware uploads, a spare bezel for the Magelis range. The catalogue also lists EMC filters, braking resistors, braking modules: not strictly HMI accessories, but engineers tend to roll them into the same order.
The principle is simple: each pulpit or cable is locked to a specific VFD series (Delta VFD-E, Bosch Rexroth FE/FVCA/EFC 3600, Veichi AC10/AC60, Schneider Zelio). There is no cross-brand compatibility, so before placing an order we ask the customer for the series of their main device. Mistakes happen when someone orders a "looks the same" pulpit from another series: it plugs into the socket physically, but the drive will not start.
Which Pulpit or Cable Fits Your VFD Series
Bestsellers at our shop this year: Delta KPE-LE02 for VFD-E (LED, compact), Veichi KBD10-15 for AC10/AC60 (remote with potentiometer), Schneider SR2USB01 (USB cable for Zelio Logic SR2/SR3 firmware uploads via Zelio Soft). Bosch Rexroth covers four pulpits across different series, with and without potentiometer. Before we ship, please send a photo of your VFD nameplate or the exact model code: we verify compatibility against the datasheet first. Side-by-side of the popular options:

Operator panels by specifications
Key criteria for selecting an operator panel for your VFD:
- By VFD series — each panel is compatible with a specific drive series (VFD-E, FE, FVCA, EFC 3600).
- By display type — LED (segment) or LCD (graphic) for parameter visualisation.
- By mounting method — built-in panel on the VFD body or remote keypad with cable for cabinet door mounting.
- By potentiometer — analogue knob for smooth frequency adjustment without entering the menu.
