Product Overview
The Eaton XV-442-57CQB-1-10 is a 5.7-inch operator interface from the XV400 family, designed for machine-level visualization, operator control, diagnostics, and communication with industrial automation equipment. Eaton classifies the unit as an HMI-PLC, with PLC functionality available through an additional license rather than being inherent in every installed unit.
The Eaton XV-442-57CQB-1-10 uses a 5.7-inch CSTN color display with 320 × 240 QVGA resolution and an infrared touch interface. The front assembly uses laminated, non-reflective safety glass, and Eaton specifies IP65 protection at the front. The unit is designed for flush mounting in a machine or control-panel enclosure.
The Eaton XV-442-57CQB-1-10 provides Ethernet, RS232, CAN, USB Host, and USB Device interfaces. Its communication capability can be expanded through licenses and an optional communication-module slot. The Windows CE operating environment also requires the appropriate license, while a CompactFlash card is required for the automation software environment.

Main Features & Field Considerations
5.7-inch industrial operator interface
The XV-442-57CQB-1-10 provides a compact HMI format suited to machine panels and local operator stations. The 320 × 240 display resolution is modest by current HMI standards, but it matches the design requirements of many legacy machines.
Infrared touch interface
Unlike resistive touchscreen panels, this model uses infrared touch technology. The display has a laminated safety-glass front with a non-reflective surface. This distinction matters when replacing the panel because a visually similar XV-series unit may use a different touch technology.
Multiple communication interfaces
The unit integrates Ethernet, RS232, CAN, and USB interfaces. Eaton also provides a slot for an optional communication module, allowing the communication architecture to be expanded according to the application.
Optional PLC functionality
The XV400 platform can be configured with PLC functionality using the appropriate license. Eaton identifies LIC-PLC-MXP-SMALL as the license associated with the PLC function for this model. Therefore, a replacement hardware unit does not automatically guarantee that the original embedded PLC application will be operational without the corresponding software/license environment.
Legacy software is a real replacement concern
The unit uses Windows CE and requires a CompactFlash card for its automation environment. When replacing an installed unit, preserving the original CompactFlash contents, visualization project, communication configuration, and licenses may be more important than the physical panel itself.
Replacement Checklist
Before replacing an XV-442-57CQB-1-10, verify:
- Exact model: XV-442-57CQB-1-10
- Catalog number: 139892
- XV400 family
- 5.7-inch display
- Infrared touch technology
- Windows CE license
- CompactFlash card and contents
- PLC license, if used
- Visualization software/project
- Ethernet configuration
- RS232 communication parameters
- CAN/easyNet configuration
- Optional communication module
- Panel cutout dimensions
- Front IP65 requirement
Important Specification Caution
Some recent third-party listings incorrectly describe this exact model as a 7-inch TFT, 800 × 480 WVGA panel and even place it in the XV300 family. That conflicts directly with Eaton’s own documentation, which identifies XV-442-57CQB-1-10 as an XV400 5.7-inch CSTN unit with 320 × 240 resolution.
For procurement, I would use Eaton’s specification rather than those reseller descriptions.
Procurement Description
Eaton XV-442-57CQB-1-10 (139892) — XV400 5.7-Inch Color HMI-PLC Operator Interface, 24 VDC, Infrared Touch, 320 × 240 CSTN, Ethernet/RS232/CAN, USB Host/Device
The XV-442-57CQB-1-10 is a legacy operator interface, so when sourcing a replacement, the CompactFlash contents, Windows CE environment, communication licenses, PLC license, and installed communication module should be checked alongside the hardware part number.
