Fanuc CAP i T Keyboard for 16i/ 18i/ 21i A02B-0281-C126#TFBR

📌 Part Overview

A02B-0281-C126#TFBR is a separate-type Manual Data Input (MDI) keypad used on CNC machine operator panels. It’s part of the A02B-0281 family of standalone HMI/MDI components designed for FANUC CNC control systems.

• Part Number: A02B-0281-C126#TFBR

• Manufacturer: FANUC

• Series: A02B-0281 (MDI/display and input units for CNC operator interfaces)

• Type: Separate-type MDI unit — a dedicated keypad used for manual data input.

• Orientation: Vertical mount — intended to be installed upright in the control panel.

• Keyboard Layout: CAPi-T standard English layout — keys are labeled in standard English using the CAPi-T style familiar in industrial controls.

📌 Function

This MDI keypad lets an operator manually enter:

• Program numbers

• CNC commands

• Parameters / numeric values

• Navigation/select inputs

It does not include a display screen — it’s solely an input device that connects to the CNC controller and is typically used in conjunction with a separate display unit.

📍 Notes

• • This part is generally used on legacy or classic FANUC CNC controls that use separate MDI keypads rather than integrated display/key panels.

  • It is often found as refurbished or surplus stock, since modern control panels tend to integrate input and display functions.

  • Matching the suffix (#TFBR) ensures the CAPi-T English keyboard layout and correct vertical orientation for your operator panel.
