Catalog ST PCS 7 - March 2007

■ Overview
OS basic hardware and OS software are structured by OS single
station, OS server and OS client in compliance with the architecture
of the operator system and are accordingly coordinated in
this regard.
■ Application
The OS software can be executed on the OS basic hardware offered
in this catalog, and has been system-tested together with
it. Siemens AG guarantees the compatibility of hardware and
software for system configurations based on components in this
catalog.
If you use basic hardware other than that offered in this catalog,
you must observe the minimum requirements specified in the
Section "SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstation" of the Chapter
"System-neutral components".
If you configure a SIMATIC PCS 7 operator station (OS single
station/OS server/OS client) yourself using different or your own
hardware components, you bear full responsibility for this, and
will not be provided with free support in the case of any compatibility
problems.
Despite comprehensive tests, it cannot be excluded that the
function of a SIMATIC PCS 7 system could be impaired by supplementary
non-Siemens software, i.e. software which has not
been explicitly approved for SIMATIC PCS 7. For this reason,
Siemens AG warns against the installation of non-Siemens software
on SIMATIC PCS 7 Runtime systems, and is not liable for
any subsequent damage.
Furthermore, the use of non-Siemens software in the SIMATIC
PCS 7 environment is always your own responsibility. You cannot
claim free support in the case of any compatibility problems.
■ Design
The OS standard software of OS single stations and OS clients
can be expanded by SIMATIC PCS 7 SFC Visualization and
Safety Matrix Viewer.
The high-performance cyclic buffer archiving system integrated
as standard in OS single station and OS server for short-term archiving
of up to 512 variables can be expanded within the limit
of 10000 variables using SIMATIC PCS 7 archive licenses and
SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive PowerPacks. The SIMATIC PCS 7 archive
licenses (Count Relevant Licenses) are cumulative.
SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive PowerPacks permit expansion in steps
from 1500 to 5000 or 10000 variables. For ordering data for
SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive and SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive Power-
Packs, refer to Section "OS archiving" in Chapter "Operator system".
The short-term archive can also be combined with a long-term
archive. StoragePlus is available for long-term archiving in the
bottom performance range, and the central archive server (CAS)
is envisaged for the top performance range. See the Section "OS
archiving" in the Chapter "Operator system" for details.
You can also implement redundant system configurations with
OS single stations and OS servers. See the Section "OS redundancy"
in the Chapter "Operator system" for details.
The following tables provide a selection aid for ordering an operator
station. Depending on whether a redundant or non-redundant
design is selected, the tables indicate the respectively required
number of
• SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstations,
• licenses for OS standards software, and
• licenses for optionally used supplementary OS software.
