Description
Product Introduction & Engineering Value
The Eaton XV-102-B5-35TQR-10-PLC is a compact XV-102 operator interface intended for machine-level visualization and control. The “-PLC” designation is important: this is not simply a display terminal, so replacement planning should account for its control functionality as well as its HMI role.
For a replacement, confirm the exact model suffix, application project, controller configuration, communications, power requirements, and mounting dimensions. The physical display alone does not define compatibility.

Engineering note
Eaton used multiple XV-series configurations, and the detailed electrical and communications specifications can vary by exact catalog designation. Do not transfer specifications from another XV-102 model simply because the enclosure and display appear similar.
Field Application & the “Trench” Experience
This model presents a different replacement problem from a conventional HMI. If the original unit is being used for both operator visualization and PLC control, replacing it with a display-only terminal can leave the machine with a perfectly working screen but no equivalent control function.
Before removing an XV-102-B5-35TQR-10-PLC, back up the application and document the I/O and communication configuration. A technician should know exactly which functions are being executed locally by the XV-102 and which are handled by another controller.
Specific application scenarios
- Compact machine-control panels where HMI and PLC functions are combined in one operator device.
- Packaging and assembly machinery requiring local sequencing and operator-set parameters.
- Standalone automation skids where a compact controller/HMI combination reduces cabinet hardware.
Transparency SOP: QA & Testing
For New Surplus inventory, use this acceptance sequence:
1. Identity — Verify XV-102-B5-35TQR-10-PLC from the actual unit label.
2. Display — Check the LCD/TFT area, touchscreen response, bezel, and viewing surface.
3. Housing — Inspect mounting clips, rear connectors, enclosure, and terminal areas.
4. Controller hardware — Inspect the controller-related interfaces and check for evidence of previous installation.
5. Power-up — Confirm startup behavior using the appropriate power source and safe test setup.
6. Application verification — Determine whether the unit is supplied with application software or as hardware only.
7. Functional test — Where possible, verify touchscreen operation, controller functions, communications, and relevant I/O.
A board or HMI that merely powers on has not necessarily passed a complete functional test.

The Veteran’s Tech Trap Guide
⚠️ Trap #1 — Treating the XV-102 as only an HMI
The -PLC designation changes the replacement calculation. Confirm what control functions are executed by the existing unit before substituting hardware.
⚠️ Trap #2 — Losing the application program
Back up the existing project before replacement. Do not assume that a New Surplus unit arrives with the customer’s machine program already installed.
PRO TIP: Capture the existing unit’s complete model label and make a backup of the project from the engineering environment before disconnecting the HMI/PLC.
⚠️ Trap #3 — Matching only the display size
A similar-size XV-series unit may have different processor, I/O, communication, memory, or software characteristics. Use the complete model number for procurement.
Dynamic FAQ
What is Eaton XV-102-B5-35TQR-10-PLC?
It is an Eaton XV-102 series operator interface with PLC functionality, designed for compact machine and automation control applications.
Is this unit both an HMI and PLC?
The -PLC designation indicates that the model is intended to provide PLC/controller functionality in addition to operator-interface functions. The exact available I/O and control capabilities should be verified against Eaton documentation for this model.
Does the replacement include the customer’s PLC program?
Not necessarily. New Surplus hardware may not contain the customer’s application. Confirm project/software status before purchasing.
What should I verify before replacing the unit?
Check the complete model number, display configuration, PLC function, I/O requirements, communications, power supply, mounting dimensions, and application software.
Can another XV-102 replace this model?
Do not assume so. Even within the XV-102 family, hardware and functional configurations can differ. Match the complete model designation and verify application compatibility.
How should New Surplus units be tested?
Verify the model label, inspect the enclosure and connectors, power the unit in a controlled test environment, check touchscreen operation, and—where equipment is available—verify controller, communication, and I/O functions.
What warranty should I request?
Confirm the warranty period, functional-test status, software/project status, and return conditions in writing. For a PLC/HMI combination, warranty terms should cover the actual functions being relied upon in the machine.
