ENG_1002627.XML
The SIMATIC Process Control System IPC, the operating system, and the OS software are matched to one another in accordance with the application as OS single station, OS server or OS client.
ENG_1002628.XML
The OS standard software is pre-configured for the corresponding OS single station, OS server or OS client as the target system, and preinstalled on it. You only need the corresponding software licenses in order to use it.
This basic level can be extended using additive software components and licenses.
You can equip OS single stations and OS clients, for example, with SIMATIC PCS 7 SFC Visualization and SIMATIC S7 Safety Matrix Viewer.
Redundant system configurations are also possible with OS single stations and OS servers. See "OS redundancy" in the "Operator System" section 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.
- SIMATIC Process Control System IPC
- Licenses for OS standard software
- Volume licenses (quantity options)
- Licenses for optional supplementary OS software
