Operator System
OS Software
■
Overview
The SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstation, the operating sys-
tem, and the OS software are matched to one another in accor-
dance with the application as OS single station, OS server or
OS client.
■
Design
The OS standard software is already pre-configured for the cor-
responding OS single station, OS server or OS client as the tar-
get system, and pre-installed on it. You only need the corre-
sponding software licenses in order to use it.
This basic level can be extended using additive software com-
ponents and licenses.
You can equip OS Single Stations and OS Clients, for example,
with SIMATIC PCS 7 SFC Visualization and Safety Matrix
Viewers.
Redundant system configurations are also possible with
OS single stations and OS servers. See "OS redundancy" under
"Operator System" for details
see page 5/12
.
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 respec-
tively required number of
•
SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstations
•
Licenses for OS standard software
•
Volume licenses (quantity options)
•
Licenses for optional supplementary OS software
Note on Microsoft SQL Server software
The "SQL Server" software from Microsoft which is delivered to-
gether with SIMATIC PCS 7 is exclusively intended for this pro-
cess control system. It must not be used in any other context
without previous written approval by Siemens.
