Schneider Electric Magelis XBTGT7340 Advanced Touchscreen Panel: Enhanced Human-Machine Interaction

The Schneider Electric Magelis XBTGT7340 is a cutting-edge Human-Machine Interface (HMI) designed to provide advanced touchscreen capabilities for seamless interaction and monitoring in industrial applications. Manufactured by Schneider Electric, this device belongs to the Magelis XBTGT range, offering a 15-inch backlit color TFT LCD with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels (XGA).

Display and Interface:

The XBTGT7340 boasts a vibrant display with 65,536 colors, ensuring clarity and precision in visualizing critical data. The 15-inch size provides an expansive view, and the touchscreen functionality, with a touch-sensitive zone of 1024 x 1024, enhances user-friendly navigation. The analog touch panel enables versatile input, supporting ASCII (European characters), Chinese (simplified Chinese), Japanese (ANK, Kanji), Korean, and Taiwanese (traditional Chinese) character fonts.

Hardware Specifications:

Weighing 3 kg, this advanced touchscreen panel features a CPU RISC processor with a frequency of 266 MHz, providing robust performance. The memory configuration includes a backup of data SRAM with 512 kB and a lithium battery, ensuring data integrity. The device supports a Compact Flash card slot (128 MB to 1 GB) for additional memory and functionality. The XBTGT7340 operates on a 24 V DC external power supply, with voltage limits between 19.2 and 28.8 V and an inrush current of <= 30 A.

Connectivity and Communication:

The HMI is equipped with multiple communication options, including a COM2 serial link with RJ45 RS485 supporting up to 187.5 kbit/s and compatibility with Siemens MPI (187.5 kbits/s). It features a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet port for network connectivity. The device supports various protocols, such as FIPWAY Telemecanique Modicon, Modbus Plus Telemecanique Modicon, Modbus TCP Telemecanique Modicon, Modbus Telemecanique Modicon, and third-party protocols from Mitsubishi Melsec, Omron Sysmac, Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley, Siemens Simatic, and Uni-TE Telemecanique Modicon.

Industrial Durability:

Designed for industrial environments, the XBTGT7340 is resistant to electrostatic discharge up to 6 kV (IEC 61000-4-2 level 3). The aluminum alloy enclosure ensures durability, and the HMI is suitable for flush mounting. The device's dimensions are 395 mm (width) x 294 mm (height) x 60 mm (depth), with cut-out dimensions of 383.5 (+1/-0) x 282.5 (+1/-0) mm.

Power Consumption and Signaling:

The XBTGT7340 consumes 42 W of power and features local signaling through one LED (green or orange) for normal operation or backlighting faults.

Additional Features:

The HMI includes a built-in real-time clock, enabling time-sensitive applications. It supports 8 levels of brightness adjustment via the touch panel, offering adaptability to varying lighting conditions. The device allows the installation of Fieldbus communication cards (Device Net, Profibus DP) in its Compact Flash card slot.

Maintenance and Mounting:

Maintenance involves routine cleaning of the touchscreen with a soft, lint-free cloth. The HMI can be flush-mounted using either 4 spring clips or 8 screw clamps.
