Description
🖥️ Product Overview
The TELEMECANIQUE XBTGT7340 is a 15-inch Magelis advanced touchscreen terminal designed for industrial machine operation, process visualization, and operator interface applications.
It features a 15-inch color TFT LCD with XGA resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels and an analog touchscreen. The unit operates from a 24 VDC external power supply, with an allowable supply range of 19.2–28.8 VDC. The published power consumption is approximately 42 W.
The terminal provides serial communication, Ethernet TCP/IP, USB, digital I/O, audio interfaces, and an optional fieldbus communication-card slot. Its configuration environment is based on Vijeo Designer.
The XBTGT7340 is now a legacy Magelis product. Schneider Electric lists the model as discontinued, with commercialization ending in 2015 and standard service ending in December 2025. For existing installations, tested surplus or used units can therefore be useful as replacement stock.

🔧 Operating Function
The XBTGT7340 acts as the operator interface between personnel and an industrial control system.
Typical functions include:
- Displaying machine and process data
- Monitoring alarms and operating status
- Entering production or process parameters
- Displaying trends and diagnostic information
- Sending operator commands to PLC or controller systems
- Communicating with control equipment through Ethernet or serial networks
- Storing application data and HMI project files
Supported communication protocols can include Modbus, Modbus TCP, Modbus Plus, FIPWAY, Uni-TE, and selected third-party PLC protocols, depending on the configured project and communication hardware.
🛠️ Installation & Configuration
Before installation, verify the existing panel cutout. The specified XBTGT7340 cutout is approximately 383.5 × 282.5 mm.
Use a regulated 24 VDC power source within the specified 19.2–28.8 VDC range. Check polarity and terminal condition before energizing the unit.
For replacement work, compare:
- Exact XBTGT7340 model number
- Hardware and software revision
- Existing Vijeo Designer project
- PLC communication protocol
- Ethernet and serial wiring
- Communication-card configuration
- Touchscreen and display condition
For a legacy replacement, it is particularly important to back up the existing HMI project before removing the original terminal.
🔩 Maintenance Tips
Keep the front panel clean and avoid abrasive cleaning materials that can damage the touchscreen surface.
Inspect the power connector, serial ports, Ethernet connector, USB ports, and field wiring for oxidation or mechanical damage.
For used units, pay particular attention to:
- Touchscreen response across the entire display
- LCD brightness and backlight condition
- Dead pixels or display abnormalities
- Ethernet communication
- Serial communication
- Battery-backed memory
- CompactFlash operation
- Startup behavior and diagnostic messages
If the terminal is being stored as a spare, keep it in a dry, dust-free environment and use ESD protection during handling.

🏭 Application Summary
The TELEMECANIQUE XBTGT7340 is a legacy 15-inch industrial HMI suited to existing Magelis-based automation systems. Its large XGA display, touchscreen interface, Ethernet, serial communications, and Vijeo Designer environment make it practical for machine control and process monitoring.
For older equipment where changing the HMI would require a complete software or cabinet redesign, keeping a tested XBTGT7340 as a spare can reduce downtime and simplify maintenance. The most important checks are the exact model, project software, communication interface, hardware revision, and physical panel dimensions.
