Magelis XBT GT

The Magelis XBT GT series from Schneider Electric consists of powerful graphical HMI panels (Human Machine Interfaces) that provide operators with intuitive and reliable control of machines and systems. These touchscreen panels are designed for use in demanding industrial environments and are still widely used in existing automation systems. At JC-Electronics, you’ll find a broad range of refurbished and reconditioned XBT GT panels – all with a 2-year warranty and immediate availability.

What is a Magelis XBT GT HMI?

A Magelis XBT GT is a control panel that allows operators to view information from a PLC, control processes, and handle alarms. These panels feature color touchscreens in various sizes and resolutions, often equipped with communication protocols such as Modbus, Ethernet, and CANopen. They serve as the link between human and machine and can be programmed using Schneider’s Vijeo Designer software.

What does a Magelis XBT GT do?

A Magelis XBT GT does not control processes on its own but functions as the interface between the operator and the automation system. Through the panel, you can read process values, set parameters, acknowledge alarms, or manually intervene in the production process. The Schneider HMI retrieves data from a PLC – such as a Modicon M340 or M580 – and displays it using clear screens, buttons, and trend charts. This allows operators to maintain control over the system without needing to directly interact with the PLC logic.

Where are Magelis XBT GT panels commonly used?

You’ll find Magelis XBT GT HMIs in various sectors, including machine building, food production, logistics, water treatment, and energy. They are used in control cabinets, production lines, sorting systems, and installations where real-time operator interaction is essential. Since these panels have a long service life, they are still frequently used in existing systems – meaning there remains a strong need for replacements and repairs.
