How to set the paging file
Introduction
The operating system requires additional disk space for the paging file (virtual memory; this is
created by default on the operating system partition).
Rules for setting the size of the paging file
The size of the paging file depends on the memory configuration of the PC. We recommend
the following setting:
"Swap file managed automatically"
Configuring virtual memory
Refer to the online help of the operating system to learn how to open the dialog for configuring
virtual memory.

Procedure
1. Set up local users and groups via the Control Panel. You can find additional information on
this in the section "Setting up user groups and users (Page 82)".
2. We recommend the following display settings:
– Select one of the following settings for PCS 7:
- Use of standard monitors: Minimum resolution 1280 x 1024
- Use of 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. Please
ensure that you have installed appropriate drivers and are using suitable monitors.
– For PC stations that are involved in process mode, the power saving plan should be set
as follows:
- Turn off the monitor: Never
- Put computer to sleep: Never
3. Disable the energy saving option for network adapters.
You can find additional information on this in the section "How to disable the power saving
options of network adapters (Page 93)".
4. Use the Event Viewer to check that all services and drivers are functioning correctly.
5. Server for process mode: Optimize background services
Select the option to optimize the system performance for background services in the
advanced system properties in the Control Panel. ("Advanced" tab; "Processor scheduling"
