Hello, A non server based operator station (stand alone OS) for redundant S7-400 (i.e. S7-400H) could be achieved by: 1- A single station with TIA WinCC advanced with suitable power tags. You can use the integrated Ethernet interface of the OS. Just follow the same procedures as per this document. connecting simatic hmi panels with simatic s7-400h (wincc v13-and-step-7 v5.5) Note that switch over time will be at least 5 seconds. 2- A single station with the following: 3.1-WinCC V7.x runtime license with the required no. of tags. 3.2- Softnet redconnect license (6GK1704-0HB13-0AA0) in case you will use the integrated port of your station OR 3.3- Hardnet redconnect license (6GK1716-0HB13-0AA0) in case you decide to go with hardnet CP1623 (6GK1162-3AA00). Search the WinCC manual to know how to create fault-tolerant connection with H-System. The switch over in this case is bumpless. Best regards, H-H |

Hi Well in PCS7 What version is it. I assume that it is version V8.x , You will have to take care of the PO license as the same in other OS stations. Next you need to tell us how many ES and OS are existing on the network. You can go for any commercial available system like DELL,HP, Lenovo etc other than Fujitsu, Please check that the CP card is not in built. For the redundant Communication you require the Two CP card for Communication Redundancy with red connect software. You can also create a OS reference with respect to the ES or other OS and Compile and download the same to the new OS station. Check this post Next you need to check the existing version of the ES/OS system, As you will be installing the latest Version of PCS7 V8.X, In case the existing version is lower than the present version, Please get in touch with your local Siemens representative. In case of the same version you need to not worry, But please note that during the additional OS configuration, You may need to shut down the plant, Make sure you communicate the same to customer. Though there are several other means, you can refer the PCS7 OS configuration documents. In case of any query, Please post your comments., All the best. |
