Product Description
Allen-Bradley 20-HIM-C6S and Allen-Bradley 20-HIM-C3S are remote-mount, full-numeric LCD human interface modules for PowerFlex drive systems. Both use DPI communication, carry NEMA 4X/12 remote-mount protection and are supplied with a 3 m 1202-C30 cable.
The 20-HIM-C6S is the enhanced current HIM. It adds integrated navigation and number keys, dynamic soft keys, configurable process screens, user-defined drive and peripheral names, and an LCD that can flash when a fault or alarm is present.
The 20-HIM-C3S is the earlier remote full-numeric HIM and was discontinued in 2023. Rockwell Automation identifies 20-HIM-C6S as its direct replacement, while commissioning still requires the connected drive family and supported HIM functions to be reviewed.

Enhanced HIM Navigation & Drive Monitoring
Process display
The enhanced HIM supports configurable process screens and user-defined device names.
Alarm visibility
Its LCD can flash when the connected drive reports a fault or alarm, providing a local visual condition cue.
Remote-Mount NEMA 4X/12 Installation
Both 20-HIM-C6S and 20-HIM-C3S are remote NEMA 4X/12 configurations supplied with a 3 m cable.
Panel interface
The remote construction places the operator module at the enclosure surface while the DPI cable runs to the drive.
Cable extension
The documented DPI cable system can be extended up to 75 m; lengths above 30 m are not CE-compliant.
Replacement boundary
20-HIM-C6S is the direct replacement for 20-HIM-C3S, but the connected drive and supported functions must remain part of the change review.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main difference between 20-HIM-C6S / 20-HIM-C3S?
20-HIM-C6S is the enhanced HIM with updated navigation, dynamic soft keys and expanded display functions. 20-HIM-C3S is the earlier basic remote full-numeric model.
Is 20-HIM-C6S / 20-HIM-C3S intended for panel mounting?
Yes. Both are remote-mount NEMA 4X/12 HIM configurations and include a 3 m 1202-C30 connection cable.
Is 20-HIM-C6S the replacement for 20-HIM-C3S?
Yes. Rockwell Automation identifies 20-HIM-C6S as the direct replacement after 20-HIM-C3S was discontinued.
Can the connection for 20-HIM-C6S / 20-HIM-C3S be longer than the included cable?
The documented DPI arrangement permits extension up to 75 m. Cable systems longer than 30 m are not CE-compliant.
What does a flashing display indicate on 20-HIM-C6S / 20-HIM-C3S?
The enhanced 20-HIM-C6S can flash its LCD to indicate a drive fault or alarm. Do not assume the same enhanced behavior on the earlier 20-HIM-C3S.
Can 20-HIM-C6S / 20-HIM-C3S be treated as the drive controller?
No. They are operator interface modules that communicate with the connected drive. The drive remains responsible for its control and protection functions.
