Hello, Can anyone help me with a procedure of setting the time synchronization on a PCS7 V8.1 system? Cheers, Sorin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Hi, You can check the following manual. I couldn't find it on the Siemens site anymore, I think because V8.1 has been discontinued. AttachmentProcess Control System PCS7 Time synchronization (V8.1).pdf (337 Downloads) |
If I could help you, you can use the RATE button. Thank you. |

Hello Nico0908, Articles whose contents refer to PCS 7 versions smaller than V8.2 are only available with a "Legacy System Services" contract. Information about the "Legacy System Services" contract can be found under the following link:

Dear Nico0908, Just to further add value to this post, for PCS 7 plant, you might still have system without WinCC Runtime installed, for example, Process historian, Information server, 3rd party non-Siemens System, other workstations like shift log station, domain controller, antivirus station, quarantine station, office station with Microsoft Window environment, here come another technique to do their time synchronization. You may configure OS Servers as a NTP Time Server to publish the time to all other stations. Here attach a useful link for NTP Time synchronization setup using Microsoft platform. Time Synchronization Via NTP - In this document, you will find instructions for clock synchronization in small PCS 7 systems without an external DCF77 time master and without a domain controller(DC). And another useful tool to check time synchronization in all the station, (this is extremely useful when you need to proof that all your system is having time-synchronized.) Write a simple Bat File using the link below. Attached the link for the zip file All the above sources come from Siemens at below links. Hope this is helpful for all the future Forum User that search for the keyword "Time Synchronization“ Attachment66579062_Check_Time_Sync.zip (153 Downloads) |
