4.1 Preconfigured PC systems for PCS 7 (product bundles)
PC hardware for engineering stations (ES) and operator stations (OS)
Special versions of the basic hardware (product bundles or bundle PC) are available for
engineering stations (ES) and operator stations (OS).
The bundle PCs are preconfigured PC systems for PCS 7, which have been optimized for the
specific area of application.
The preconfigured PC systems that are available for PCS 7 can be found in the current
ST
PCS 7 catalog under the keyword "Entry level systems".
We recommend SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX PCs for use in small standalone systems or for
combined AS/OS stations in the PCS 7 network.
You can find additional information on this in the Process Control System PCS 7; SIMATIC
PCS 7 BOX manual.
If you use other types of PCs for PCS 7, you can find the relevant hardware requirements in
the "Basic hardware configuration (Page 48)" section.
Color monitors
Choose a suitable monitor for PCS 7:
● Using standard monitors: minimum resolution 1280 x 1024
● Using widescreen monitors: minimum resolution 1680 x 1050
The higher resolution allows you to better utilize the display features of the PCS 7 software,
for example, for the online operation of faceplates from the libraries. Note that suitable drivers
must be available.
Network connection
All PCS 7 product bundles are configured for a Windows workgroup. The firewall of the
operating system is deactivated by default.
If you enter these PCs in a Windows domain, you need to reactivate the security settings using
the PCS 7 setup.
You can find more detailed information on security settings in the "Notes on installing PCS 7
(Page 73)" section.
