1 Introduction
This document describes the architectures and components of SIMATIC PCS 7 in
a basic structure. In addition to the mentioned architectures, various options and
configured versions are also displayed. SIMATIC PCS 7 is a highly scalable
process control system with numerous topologies that are based on redundancy as
well as optional hardware and software features.
This document should help you by simplifying your choice:
• Architectures based on the number of users, inputs and outputs
• SIMATIC PCS 7-Optionen, for example. SIMATIC BATCH, SIMATIC Route
Control, Asset management and Fieldbus
• Degree of system availability and network topologies
• Power supply concepts for DC 24V
The various configurations in this document are compared on the basis of
schematic diagrams and a sample component list.
Note The architectures shown in this document contain only the necessary basic
licenses. In order to achieve the desired quantity structure, in addition to the
basic licenses, you must also take into account the corresponding set of volume
licenses.
Note The components on the parts lists refer to the2021 PCS 7 catalog:
https://www.siemens.de/STPCS7
You may need to check whether more up-to-date components are available.
Note The parts lists for the individual configurations do not contain any network
components, since a large number of variants are available for this.
To do this, use Section 14, Network Architecture.

2 Selection Guide
At the planning stage, the task is to create a Distributed Control System (DCS) with
a scalable and flexible architecture.
The sample configurations that are listed below will help you to choose the right
configuration to meet your requirements and demands of the properties you need
like the size, availability and number of operator stations.
Every configuration in this document contains a parts list that provides an overview
of the PCS 7 components that are used.
When choosing your architecture, you should first determine the following system
criteria:
1. Number of inputs and outputs for the process
2. Number of operators that work with the system
Number of inputs and outputs connected to the system

To determine the number of signals entering or leaving the system, you must
consider several resources:
1. The number of digital and analog I/Os to be installed.
2. The number of variables (boolean, integer or floating point) exchanged
between the PCS 7 system and external systems such as PLCs, serial
interfaces, etc., and running on protocols such as Modbus, PROFIBUS,
PROFINET or Ethernet.
3. Inputs and outputs that are read or written via bus systems, such as AS-
Interface.
Number of persons operating the system

The chosen architecture must be designed for the total number of users, operators
and engineers who will work on the system in the future. This number determines
the required number of individual workplaces.
Note SIMATIC PCS 7 enables a seamless extension of your system with full use of
existing equipment. Both software components and hardware components
satisfy this requirement equally.

3 Single Station
Single station
For small systems where engineering or operation tasks are carried out by only
one user the single-user architecture of PCS 7 offers a cost-effective solution. In
this architecture, the functionality of the Engineering Station (ES) and the Operator
Station (OS) is integrated into one PC.
Dual monitor
A Single Station or an Engineering Station can be expanded with a standard
graphics card that makes it possible to connect up to two monitors.
The system can be expanded with an additional multi graphics card (2 additional
monitor connections) so that up to four monitors can be connected to one system.

4 System with Multiple OS Single Stations

System with Multiple OS Single Stations
Two to five users and typically up to 1000 inputs and outputs can be supported and
controlled with one SIMATIC PCS 7 system composed of several Single Stations.
In an architecture like this, the system can consist of up to 12 Single Stations. The
Single Stations are configured and loaded on a central basis from an Engineering
Station (ES) in a single OS project. Since the entire database is copied to all the
Single Stations, the entire system can be controlled from one single location. It can
be archived simultaneously on all the Single Stations. However, there is no
synchronization between the single locations, and archives for alarms and tags run
independently from each other.
Redundancy
With linking of a Process Historian (PH), two OS Single Stations must be set up on
a redundant basis; otherwise, the link does not function. A corresponding system
configuration can be found in Section 4.3. Two OS Single Stations can be
equipped with redundancy software and hardware components to create a high-
availability Operator Station. In this case, the archive synchronization is carried out
between the redundant Single Stations.
The terminal bus, system bus, automation system(s) (AS) and Fieldbus can also be
set up on a redundant basis. This redundancy option for the OS is limited to two
OS Single Stations.
Configuration limits
OS Single Station configurations are intended for small- and medium-sized plants
in the lower range. If more than two OS Single Stations are to be deployed, a
Client–Server architecture is generally more economical.
By contrast with OS Servers, OS Single Stations have the following restrictions:
• Released number: 12 OS Single Stations
• Max. number of process objects per OS Single Station: 8,500 POs
• Number of measurement points per OS Single Station: approx. 4,500
Dual monitor
Each OS or ES can be expanded with the onboard standard graphics card and an
appropriate adapter cable such that it is possible to connect two monitors.
The systems can be expanded with an additional Multi graphics card (2 additional
monitor connections) that makes it possible to connect up to four monitors to one
system.
Note For more than one redundant pair of OSs, neither archive synchronization nor
redundancy for alarms and process variables between one another are available.

5 OS Client/OS Server System

Client–Server System
Medium to large systems can benefit greatly from the SIMATIC PCS 7 Client-
Server architecture. The central administration of real-time and historical values,
easy entry of application changes and cost reduction are all features of SIMATIC
PCS 7 systems. The basic system of a Client-Server architecture is composed of
an OS Server and two or more OS Clients. The ES has a connection to both the
terminal bus and the system bus, so that changes can be loaded both on the OSs
and the ASs. If needed and there are no engineering tasks pending, the ES can be
used as an OS Client.
Operation via server

If you operate no more than four OS Clients on one OS Server, you can use an OS
Server as an operator control and monitoring station.
Redundancy
By using a redundant OS Server pair (optional redundant Process Historian),
SIMATIC PCS 7 can support redundancy at all levels. This means that OS Clients
accessing real-time/historical values and storage of historical data offer higher
availability.
In order to guarantee increased availability on the hardware level, the system
supports redundant ring structures.
Dual monitor
OS Clients can be expanded with a standard graphics card and an appropriate
adapter cable such that it is possible to connect two monitors.
The systems can be expanded with an additional Multi graphics card (2 additional
monitor connections) that makes it possible to connect up to four monitors to one
system.
Web Server
A dedicated OS Client can be equipped with the SIMATIC PCS 7 web server
software which makes possible operator control and monitoring of up to 100 web
clients via the internet/Intranet. Server licensing allows more than 100 users to
access one web server at the same time.
Note One OS Server supports up to 40 OS Clients. The number of OS Clients in the

system can be greater than 40.
The maximum number of OS Servers/OS Server pairs in a system is 18; one OS
Client can be connected to a maximum of 18 OS Servers.

6 SIMATIC BATCH
SIMATIC BATCH
SIMATIC BATCH is the SIMATIC PCS 7 standard software for ISA-88 recipe
management and batch management. SIMATIC BATCH is based on a scalable
modular software that can be used in all SIMATIC PCS 7 architectures.
SIMATIC BATCH uses a standard Client–Server architecture with clients for recipe
editing and batch control. SIMATIC BATCH clients can be installed on SIMATIC
PCS 7 single stations, server/client systems and PCs, on which no further
SIMATIC PCS 7 software is available.
Single Station
The smallest system that supports SIMATIC BATCH is the single station
architecture. All SIMATIC BATCH software packages are installed on a single
computer.
Client–Server architecture
Mid-sized systems that support multiple users and do not need redundancy are
implemented as Client–Server systems. SIMATIC BATCH follows the Operator
Station architecture seamlessly by distributing the BATCH server and client
applications to the corresponding Operator Station computers.
Client–Server architecture (OS + SB combined)

When redundancy is required and the number of servers must be kept as low as
possible, SIMATIC BATCH allows the operation of a redundant Batch server based
on the redundant OS Server pair PCs.
Client–Server architecture redundant (OS + SB-Server separated)

When it comes to large, high-performance applications, the SIMATIC PCS 7
Client–Server architecture allows the distribution of applications across multiple
PCs. In this case, the BATCH server and OS Server run on two independent PCs.
Each of them can be implemented on a redundant basis, as a result of which a
very high level of availability is achieved. The OS Client PCs can run the BATCH
client application and access both the OS Server and the BATCH server. If
necessary, the OS Client and BATCH client application can run on separate PCs
as well.

Route Control is a system for automatic or manual control of material transport
(routes) in process plants.
Simple transport processes right up to comprehensive route combinations are
possible at runtime. System operators only need to specify the source and target
locations for the route request. Route Control allows users to determine, check,
control and monitor transport routes and the route elements they contain.
Single Station
The smallest system that supports all SIMATIC Route Control functions is the
Single Station.
Route Control engineering, server, client and the functionality of the automation
system are all installed on one PC and run in-parallel with the operator station.
Client-Server architecture
Mid-sized systems that support multiple users and require no redundancy are
implemented as Client–Server systems. SIMATIC Route Control scales seamlessly
to the Operator Station architecture by distributing the Route Control server and
client applications to the corresponding Operator station PCs.
Client-Server architecture redundant (OS + RCS combined)

When redundancy is required and the number of servers must be kept as small as
possible, SIMATIC Route Control allows the operation of a redundant Route
Control server based on the redundant OS Server pair.
Client-Server architecture redundant (OS + RCS separated)

For large and high-performance applications, the SIMATIC PCS 7 Client–Server
architecture allows the distribution of applications across multiple PCs. In this case,
the Route Control Server and OS Server run on two independent PCs. Each of
them can be configured redundantly, as a result of which high level of availability is
achieved. The OS Client PCs can access both the OS Server and the Route
Control server. If necessary, both the OS Client and the Route Control client
application can run on separate PCs.

8 SIMATIC Route Control and SIMATIC

BATCH
For BATCH applications that need transparent material transportation between
subsystems, SIMATIC PCS 7 supports the integration of SIMATIC BATCH and
SIMATIC Route Control into a single system. The ISA-88-based recipe
management and batch processing software SIMATIC BATCH integrates
seamlessly with Route Control and allows material transport to be controlled via the
recipe functions in the control recipe. Both SIMATIC BATCH and Route Control
can be used for systems that range from starter size up to distributed Client–Server
architectures.
Using SIMATIC BATCH and SIMATIC Route Control in a single system, it is
possible to implement the following configurations:
Single Station
The smallest system is the single-user architecture. All software packages
(server/client/engineering) of OS, SIMATIC BATCH and Route Control are installed
on a single computer.
Client–Server architecture
Mid-sized systems that support multiple users and do not need redundancy are
implemented as Client–Server systems. SIMATIC BATCH and SIMATIC Route

Control use the OS architecture by utilizing the BATCH and Route Control
server/client applications on the corresponding OS PCs.
Client–Server architecture redundant (OS + SB+RCS combined)

When redundancy is required and the number of servers must be kept as small as
possible, SIMATIC BATCH and SIMATIC Route Control can be used on the basis
of redundant OS Servers (a combination of three redundant functions on two
servers).
Client–Server architecture redundant (OS + SB and RCS separated)

When it comes to large, high-performance applications, the SIMATIC PCS 7
client/server architecture allows the distribution of applications across multiple PCs.
In this case, the BATCH server, Route Control server and OS Server run on
independent PCs. Each of them can be configured redundantly, as a result of
which high level of availability is achieved. The OS Client PCs can be installed
together with the BATCH and Route Control Client applications and can therefore
access the OS Server as well as the BATCH and Route Control server. If
necessary, the OS Client, Route Control client and BATCH client application can
run on separate PCs as well.

9 Archiving
SIMATIC PCS 7 digital preservation
Archiving of data for analysis purposes where the system collects large amounts of
data over long periods is supported by the Process Historian. The Process
Historian collects the archive data from the OS Servers or OS Single Stations.
Batch data can also be archived on the Process Historian. These archive data can
be visualized directly on OS Clients or Single Stations.
The information server can be used to display these data in reports. For long-term
archiving, archive data from the Process Historian can be stored on external media
(backup drives). If the exported data is required at a later point in time for the
purpose of the analysis, these can be restored on the Process Historian.
Client–Server system
The Process Historian always runs on a separate PC.
The choice of hardware depends on the system configuration and archiving load of
the Process Historian. The PH-HWAdvisor software tool can be used to determine
the correct Process Historian hardware for a given PCS 7 quantity structure.
Note The PH-HWAdvisor can be downloaded free of charge in the entry

"Determination of suitable hardware for the Process Historian with the 'PH-
HWAdvisor' tool":
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109740115
Note For PCS 7 configuration limits with one OS Server, up to four OS Clients, an
archive load of up to 1500 variable(s) and 10 alarms/min, an IPC 847E can be
used as the hardware basis for a Process Historian.
The operation of a combined Process Historian/Information Server on an IPC
847E is not recommended.
More information on hardware requirements can be found in the "Process
Historian 2020" manual in the "Process Historian – Installation Notes" Section:
All OS Clients can retrieve data from the Process Historian. From the perspective
of the OS Client, there is no difference between access to data of the OS Server or
data of the Process Historian.
Redundant OS Server Pair with a Single Process Historian

If redundant OS operation is required and constant online availability of archive
data is not mandatory, a single Process Historian can be connected to a redundant
OS Server pair. The OS Servers also have a local short-term archive.

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 70
Table of contents
Information Server
The Information Server is the reporting system of the Process Historian. Based on
the Microsoft Reporting Services, it offers web-based thin-client access to the
historical data. Add-ins for Microsoft Word and Excel provide additional access to
the database of the Process Historian. The Information Server can be installed and
operated on the Process Historian hardware or on separate hardware. An OS
Client version of the SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstation is suitable for the
separate Information Server.
Note When selecting the information server computer hardware, please note the
hardware requirements in the "Information Server" manual in the "Information
Server – Installation Notes" Section:

10 Fieldbus
PROFIBUS DP/PROFIBUS PA/FOUNDATION Fieldbus/PROFINET Fieldbus
SIMATIC PCS 7 enables the connection of different fieldbus technologies through
flexible architectures and seamless integration. In this connection, the process
devices can be connected to the automation system either via PROFINET or
PROFIBUS DP.
PROFINET is based on the international standards IEC 61158 and IEC 61784 and
combines the advantages of the open network standard Industrial Ethernet and
PROFIBUS fieldbus system.
With PROFINET, a large number of devices at the field level can communicate at a
speed of up to 100 Mbps. Within a network, the number of devices is almost
unlimited. Up to 250 devices can be connected per PROFINET interface of the
automation system.
Directly connected PROFINET devices, such as decentralized peripherals and
drives, as well as PROFIBUS DP compact devices and PROFIBUS PA process
devices integrated via the IE/PB Link are supported as devices.
PROFINET offers countless possibilities for networking these devices in the system
with line, ring, tree and star topologies. In order to reduce the planning effort and
eliminate possible sources of error, PROFINET Blueprints provide tested, scalable
network configurations. These are tailored to typical system configurations of
process automation and are recommended as prepared solution approaches or
standard blocks for planning PROFINET networks.
Note The PROFINET Blueprints and further information on the integration of

PROFINET in SIMATIC PCS 7 can be found in the application example
"PROFINET in Process Automation with SIMATIC PCS 7":
The PROFIBUS DP, based on the robust RS-485 technology, is a proven fieldbus
that supports reliable data exchange with up to 125 slaves per network. SIMATIC
PCS 7 automation systems are equipped with the PROFIBUS DP Master
functionality and can be extended to several PROFIBUS DP networks.
Repeaters increase expansion of the PROFIBUS network across multiple isolated
segments and also the number of possible stations to a maximum of 125 slaves. If
diagnostics functions for physical cable diagnostics are desired in addition to the
standard repeater functionality, a diagnostics repeater can be used as an
alternative. It monitors the copper bus cables in online mode. In the event of an
error, it sends a diagnostic message with detailed information about the type and
location of the fault to the PROFIBUS DP Master.
Intelligent field devices based on the PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus
H1 standards can be integrated in SIMATIC PCS 7 by connecting them directly to
the PROFIBUS DP via dedicated gateways (e.g. PA Link and Compact FF Link). In
addition to data transmission, the PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1
field devices are fed via the bus.

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 77
Table of contents
Note Further information on the integration of FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 (FF) in

SIMATIC PCS 7 can be found in the application example "Configuration of
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 (FF) with SIMATIC PCS 7":
DP/PA couplers, PA Link and Compact FF Link components act as network

transitions between the PROFIBUS DP networks and the PA/FF side supplied via
bus. This means that a larger number of PROFIBUS PA slaves and FF field
devices can be used without overloading the existing PROFIBUS DP address
space.
Intrinsically-safe components for PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS PA and
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 make it possible to use field devices directly in an
environment at risk from explosions.
Optical PROFIBUS DP
To implement greater distances and to achieve ring error tolerance and electrical
isolation, PROFIBUS DP allows the use of fiber-optic network components. The
optical PROFIBUS DP can be set up as a simple line or error-tolerant ring. Both
design variants are possible for both the individual and redundant PROFIBUS DP
fieldbus.
Redundant electrical PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1

If a high level of availability is required, PROFIBUS DP supports the setup of

redundant networks for the connection of IO Racks, DP/PA and FF Links by using
an H System. A redundant PROFIBUS DP network consists of two separate
electrical lines which are connected to the two PROFIBUS masters of the H
System and several redundant DP slaves. The PA Link and FF Compact FF Link
gateways provide the opportunity to build the field device bus PROFIBUS PA or
FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 as a error-tolerant ring, thereby increasing the
availability of the complete field device network. The redundant PROFIBUS PA is
available in combination with individual and redundant PROFIBUS DP networks.
The redundant FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 is available when using the Compact
FF Link with redundant PROFIBUS DP.
Electrical and optical PROFINET

PROFINET enables the use of electrical and optical cables as a transmission
medium. Optical cables offer, for example, advantages in terms of EMC load and
make it possible to bridge longer distances, whereas electrical cables are cheaper
and less sensitive to mechanical influences. Both transmission media can be used
in combination and are suitable for point-to-point connections as well as for the
setup of MRP rings.

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 78
Table of contents
Redundancy concepts for the PROFINET fieldbus

PROFINET provides two redundancy concepts for increasing the availability of
PROFINET devices
This includes setting up ring topologies using the Media Redundancy Protocol
(MRP) and connecting the devices to high-availability automation systems via
system redundancy. Both concepts are independent of each other and can be
used separately or combined.
The Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) is defined in the IEC 62439 standard and
allows ring topologies with up to 50 stations. All stations must support the media
redundancy with MRP.
In functional condition, the redundancy manager (a predefined station of the ring)
opens the ring and therefore ensures loop-free communication. If the transmission
path in the ring is interrupted at one point, e. g. by disconnecting the ring line or
failure of a station, the redundancy manager immediately closes the ring and, as a
result, provides an alternative communication path. The maximum reconfiguration
time is 200 ms.
When connecting devices to high-availability automation systems, a distinction is
made between two variants:
• Simple S2 system redundancy: Each device has an interface module that
establishes a connection to both controllers of the H System
• Redundant PROFINET configuration R1: Each device has two interface
modules, each of which establishes a connection to a controller of the H
system.
The advantage of the redundant PROFINET configuration R1 is that the level of

availability of the IO devices is increased through the two interface modules and
communication via two separate PROFINET networks (subnetworks).
Note Further information on the structure of ring topologies with MRP as well as on
simple and redundant PROFINET configurations can be found in the application
example "PROFINET in Process Automation with SIMATIC PCS 7":

This configuration is a high-availability automation system with PROFINET. To
increase the availability of the devices, the PROFINET network is set up as an

11 SIMATIC PDM
SIMATIC PDM
SIMATIC PDM is a universal tool for parameterization, diagnostics, commissioning,
servicing and maintenance of field devices. Furthermore, the Maintenance Station
displays the PDM diagnostic data of field devices.
PDM is fully integrated in the SIMATIC PCS 7 Engineering System.
SIMATIC PDM V9.1 supports communication with devices on PROFINET,
PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS PA, FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1, and HART (ET
200M, ET200SP HA, or ET200iSP modules, modem, RS 232).
The open technologies EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language) and FDI
(Field Device Integration) are used to integrate these devices.
Note In the respective PDM delivery release information, you will find a list of devices
supported by a PDM version and profiles.
SIMATIC PDM supports stand-alone operation and can be integrated into STEP
7/PCS 7.
PDM is installed in the Engineering System of medium to large system
configurations, with or without a redundant server, and connected to field devices
over the Ethernet system bus and the routing functionality of the automation
system.
Local service and parameterization stations on the fieldbus

PDM can also be used for stand-alone operation. The stand-alone version is used
on a standard computer without STEP 7 or PCS 7 installation. This computer is
connected to the PROFINET or PROFIBUS DP fieldbus. This configuration allows
you to carry out parameterization and maintenance tasks for HART, PROFIBUS
PA, PROFIBUS DP and PROFINET. PROFIBUS DP/PA devices can be accessed
from the LifeList.
HART devices can be accessed via ET200 modules, HART modems (point-to-
point) or HART Multiplexers.
Local service and parameterization stations on the system bus

With SIMATIC PDM on a Field PG, you can use the routing functionality to access
the field devices directly from the system bus and perform maintenance, service,
and parameterization tasks. The Field PG is particularly suitable for rugged day-to-
day industrial use due to its robust construction.
Single-user system (Single Station)

When using a single station, PDM connects to field devices via the Ethernet
system bus and the routing functionality of the automation system. When using
multi-Engineering Systems, PDM must be installed on all Engineering Systems
where PDM is used.

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 100
Table of contents
Non-SIMATIC S7 master
Non-PCS 7 PROFIBUS DP Masters can use the Ethernet/PROFINET to
PROFIBUS DP (IE/PB Link) interfaces, which allow a seamless connection to
lower-level field devices. By integrating PDM into STEP 7, more field devices can
be managed comprehensively and their data can be archived and versioned just
like in SIMATIC PCS 7.
SIMATIC PDM Server Option

This option licenses and enables the following applications:
• Access to SIMATIC PDM functions via a web browser. The connection from
the PDM-Client PC is only possible with Internet Explorer V10, V11 or Chrome.
• Access with a maintenance client to the SIMATIC PDM parameterization
interface for the selected field device. The call is carried out via the PDM
button in the Maintenance Faceplate.

12 Maintenance Station (Asset Management)

The Maintenance Station implements Plant Asset Management (according to
NAMUR NE 129) in a PCS 7 multi-project. That is, a system for maintaining the
value of process Engineering Systems using information about the condition of all
system components (assets).
For this purpose, the Maintenance Station provides you with comprehensive
diagnostic and maintenance information at all times. It is fully integrated in the
Operator System and contains all system information.
The diagnostics screens that are structured according to the process cell hierarchy
with the operating states of the SIMATIC PCS 7 components can be displayed on
the SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station and also on the OS clients. More detailed
diagnostic information that has also been determined by SIMATIC PDM is
displayed in the faceplates of these stations. However, enhanced online diagnostic
functions in conjunction with HW Config can only be accessed via a PCS 7
Maintenance Station on the ES.
Versions
The Maintenance Station is available in the following three versions:
1. SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station Basis (integrated in the PCS 7 project)
License-free version with functional limitations
2. SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station Standard (integrated in the PCS 7
project) Licensed version with all functions
3. SIMATIC PDM Maintenance Station 2.0 (stand-alone project)

Separate station based on bundle installation (Microbox PC). In the following
referred to as PDM Maintenance Station
The possible configurations for the two variants of the PCS 7 Maintenance Station
are described in the Sections 12.1 to 12.5.
The configuration of the PDM Maintenance Station is described in Section 12.6.
Single station
The ES, OS and asset management functions are connected to the single station
via the Ethernet system bus. Asset Management provides diagnostic and
maintenance data of the automation system, PC station, active networking
components and all of the connected field devices.
Client–Server (single/redundant)
Like the PCS 7-OS, the Maintenance Station can be used in a decentralized
Client–Server structure in SIMATIC PCS 7.
The maintenance server is based on an OS Server. It can be implemented as a
combined OS/MS server (on an existing OS Server) or as a separate MS server.
The Maintenance Station uses the standard display and messages from the PCS
7-OS that refer to the diagnosis area.
The OS Clients that are logged on to the MS server can access maintenance
screens in PCS 7 just like standard process screens.
These maintenance screens include additional information for detailed diagnostics
and troubleshooting of intelligent field devices.
Furthermore, SIMATIC PDM can be called from any of these MS clients.

Maintenance Station in flat hierarchies

The PCS 7 Maintenance Station can also be used in flat hierarchies.
SIMATIC PDM Maintenance Station

The SIMATIC PDM MS is a pre-configured single station as IPC Mircobox 427E. It
is designed for stand-alone use and independent of the automation solution used.
In terms of representation and function, the SIMATIC PDM MS is designed in the
same way as a SIMATIC PCS 7 Maintenance Station. All operating and monitoring
functions are carried out locally on this PC station.
Primarily, SIMATIC PDM MS is designed to be used for diagnostics, field device
management, acquiring and transferring the parameterization, diagnostic, and
status data of field devices.
Note There is exactly one MS server for each project (single or redundant).
Alternatively, several PDM Maintenance Stations can be used in one project.

OS single station)
• MS as a separate PC station
Terminal bus
OS OS

The MS server obtains the data from the ASes via the redundant OS single station.
If the redundant OS single station is deactivated, the data of the ASes are no
longer displayed.
Note Messages generated locally on a reference OS are not displayed in the

diagnostics screens. For example, self-diagnosis messages are affected by this.
The non-accessibility of the reference OSes via the terminal bus is visualized on
the MS server.
To display the diagnostic information on the OS single stations, a web server must
be configured on the MS server.
The diagnostics screens of the MS server can be accessed from the OS single
station via web browser Control.
There are two ways to access the MS server from the OS single station:
• Create a user image on the OS single station in Graphics Designer. Insert a
WinCC web browser control into the user image. In process management, you
can access the MS via the WinCC web browser control in the user screen.
• Start the WebClient functionality via Internet Explorer/Microsoft Edge Browser.

14 Network Architecture
14.1 Overview
Star, line, and tree structures
The rugged SCALANCE network components, active, and managed switches can
be used to build cost-effective network topologies for a large number of stations.
SCALANCE offers a wide range of network components to create star, line, and
tree structures with a large number of ports.
If multiple switches are needed to realize a high number of ports or to allow the
spatial distribution of the switches, then we suggest that you connect the switches
as a error-tolerant ring to ensure appropriate availability.

Error-tolerant ring
A unique redundancy manager concept enables the administration of several
SCALANCE switches faults in a ring backbone for optical, electrical or mixed media
process without interrupting the network communication. This function has the
complete range of SCALANCE switches (from SCALANCE X200) which are
offered with SIMATIC PCS 7.
Ring
Redundant bus with error-tolerant rings

SIMATIC PCS 7 provides redundancy from the OS Client right through to the field
connection.
Network communication between OS Clients and OS Servers, as well as between
OS Servers and AS, can achieve the highest level of availability.
This is the case if each computer and the automation system (two network
interfaces per computer and AS) are connected to two separate (redundant) and
error-tolerant networks in ring structure.

Combined systems and terminal bus

When using a common (combined) plant and terminal bus, pay attention to the
article entitled "What are the requirements for operating PCS 7 via common system
and terminal buses?":
The use of VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) technology makes it possible to split
a physical network into logical networks. The use of VLAN allows the system bus
and the terminal bus to operate together on one physical network.
Note For more information on configuring a combined system and terminal bus, see
the FAQ "How to configure a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) in PCS 7?":
Backbone networks with 1 to 10 Gbits of bandwidth

For applications where large amounts of data have to be transmitted over the
backbone network, the minimum bandwidth of 100 Mbps may no longer be
sufficient.
For this purpose, Siemens offers SCALANCE switches with a bandwidth of 1 to 10
Gbit. The high-performance switches deliver the functionality of redundancy
management, which makes it possible to set up error-tolerant ring topologies with
single or double redundancy.

14.2 Ring Architectures

14.2.1 High-Speed Ring Error Tolerance
Error-tolerant rings based on the High Speed Redundancy Protocol (HRP) are
used to form multiple communication paths between switches. If one of the paths
fails, a backup path is activated and communication is ensured.
Unlike "spanning-tree" technology, which provides similar functionality, SCALANCE
switches reconfigure the existing communication paths fast enough to avoid
connected systems (controllers, servers, clients) suffering a loss of communication.
High-speed ring monitoring and reconfiguration is achieved by a SCALANCE
switch assuming the role of redundancy manager.
Ring connections between switches can be made via electrical or optical cable
connections.
Redundancy
manager
The redundancy manager acts as a switch that opens the Ethernet ring at a
predetermined position and controls the cable status. If an error occurs in the
cable, the redundancy manager recognizes this, closes the switch, and re-
establishes communication.

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 147
Table of contents
14.2.2 Ring Connectivity, Standby Redundancy
To connect two separate error-tolerant Ethernet rings on a redundant basis, there

is a second high-speed redundancy function. Although it is necessary to have two
connections between the rings for redundancy, only one connection can be active
in each case.
To achieve this, one of the two rings to be coupled is equipped with two switches
that support the so-called standby redundancy. In this concept, two parallel point-
to-point connections monitor each other to ensure that the stand-by connection is
activated when the active link fails.
This is achieved by configuring a SCALANCE switch as the standby master and a
second SCALANCE switch as the standby slave.
Standby
Master
Redundancy Redundancy
manager manager
Standby
Slave
The standby master and standby slave are logically linked. The standby master
activates its link and the standby slave deactivates its own link.
Both switches monitor each other's status and the standby slave becomes active if
the active connection fails.
The fast activation of the standby slave does not cause a breakdown of the
communication between the connected systems (controller, server, clients).

Entry-ID: 109805551, 12/2021 148
Table of contents
14.2.3 MRP
The Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) is defined in the IEC 62439 standard and
allows ring topologies with up to 50 stations. All stations must support the media
redundancy with MRP.
In functional condition, the redundancy manager (a predefined station of the ring)
opens the ring and therefore ensures loop-free communication. If the transmission
path in the ring is interrupted at one point, e. g. by disconnecting the ring line or
failure of a station, the redundancy manager immediately closes the ring and, as a
result, provides an alternative communication path. The maximum reconfiguration
time is 200 ms.
14.2.4 MRP Interconnection
The MRP Interconnection method is an extension of MRP that enables the

redundant coupling of two or more MRP rings in networks without real-time
capability.
MRP Interconnection is – as is MRP – specified in the standard IEC 62439-2. A
very fast reconfiguration is possible with MRP Interconnection; the reconfiguration
time is typically less than 200 milliseconds.

14.3 Redundancy Concepts – Terminal Bus

14.3.1 Introduction
OS Servers/clients as well as Engineering Systems, BATCH servers/clients, Route

Control servers/clients and central archive servers can be equipped with a
redundant terminal bus connection.
In principle, the structure of this redundant, high-availability terminal bus uses the
SIMATIC NET SOFTNET-IE RNA software. This software is based on the Parallel
Redundancy Protocol (PRP) as per IEC 62439-3.
SIMATIC NET IE RNA

At each PC station, two of the physically present network adapters are also
combined into one logical network adapter.
Only the logical network adapter that has one IP and MAC address is visible to the
operating system and the network. Both network cards operate internally using the
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP).
The data packets are transmitted in-parallel via both network adapters. On receiver
side the first arriving telegram is processed. The telegram sent in parallel is
discarded.
Due to the parallel data transmission, a redundant bus must be used without
connection between the error-tolerant Ethernet rings, see Section 14.1. Due to the
parallel transmission, if an error occurs there is a 0 ms switchover time.

14.4 Redundancy Concepts – System Bus

14.4.1 Introduction
Besides the error-tolerant ring and redundant bus concepts described above, PCS
7 also provides flexible redundancy solutions for communication via the system bus
between OS and AS (controllers).
For redundant communication, SIMATIC S7-400H controllers (as standard or H
System), SCALANCE network components, the communication processor
CP1623/1628 or corresponding standard network cards (BCE) with the software
"HARDNET-IE S7-REDCONNECT" or "SOFTNET-IE S7 REDCONNECT VM" are
required for the computers involved.
14.4.2 Standard Automation System
The AS 410 standard automation systems consist of an S7-410-5H controller. The

connection to the system bus can either be established via the CP 443-1
communication module or, for S7-410-5H
controllers with firmware (FW) V8.1 or higher, via the PROFINET-IO interfaces
integrated into the CPU. The following must be considered:
• When using a PROFINET-IO interface for the system bus, it must not be used
for PROFINET.
• For system-related reasons, the two PROFINET-IO interfaces must be located

in different IP subnets.
You can find additional information at

14.4.3 High-Availability Automation System AS 410
High-availability AS 410 automation systems consist of two S7-410-5H controllers.

For communication, you can use the PROFINET-IO interfaces with firmware V8.1
and up, or equip the 410-5H controllers with two redundant CP443-1 or four
redundant CP443-1 communication processors. With regard to the PROFINET-IO
interfaces, the following must be observed:
• When using a PROFINET-IO interface for the system bus, it must not be used
for PROFINET.
• For system-related reasons, the two PROFINET-IO interfaces must be located
in different IP subnets.

15 Process Safety
The "Safety Integrated for Process Automation" concept enables the complete
integration of safety technology (Process Safety) into the SIMATIC PCS 7 process
control system.
As a general rule, when setting up a PCS 7 system with process safety, the same
scalable and flexible architectures are possible as for systems without process
safety.
It should be noted that a safety-oriented automation system, also known as a fail-
safe automation system (F/FH system), is required for the execution of safety-
related user programs.
This prerequisite is already met on the hardware side by the AS 410 modular
automation system used in the configurations of this document.
Additionally, the license "SIMATIC S7 F Systems Runtime License" is required for
each automation system. This is already included in the AS bundles for safety-
related automation systems.
The engineering of the safety-related user program can be carried out either with
SIMATIC S7 F systems based on CFC logic or optionally with the additional
SIMATIC Safety Matrix software based on a cause & effect matrix.

16 24V DC Supply Concepts

High availability
A reliable power supply is a basic condition for system operation. With MTBF
ratings of up to 1 million hours at full load in continuous operation, SITOP power
supplies meet the particularly stringent requirements of processing industries. To
further increase availability, the system supports redundant establishment of the
power supply as well as buffer operation in the case of a power failure.
Universal application
To allow use all over the world, one and three-phase SITOP power supplies have a
wide temperature range of -25 …+70 °C. In addition, they have a wide range of
different international approvals (e.g. ATEX, Class I Div2, IECex, GL, ABS, etc.),
which means that you can use them all over the world.
Scalability
SITOP power supplies have different output power levels of up to 1000W, which
allows you to tailor them to match your system configuration and layout. Depending
on your requirements, you can combine them with redundancy, selectivity or DC
UPS modules. This means that you can expand the system on an individual basis
up to complete all-round protection.
Notes In the next few sub-sections, we will describe preferred

24V supply concepts. Depending on your requirements, you can combine them
with different components
(e.g. buffered power supply with selective monitoring).
The SITOP library is available for preferred power supply concepts with blocks
and faceplates for direct integration into SIMATIC PCS 7. The PCS 7 user
automatically receives information on operating states (e. g. buffer operation),
maintenance requirements
(e.g., replacing batteries) and faults (e.g., short circuits or overloads in 24V
circuits).

16.1 Basic Power Supplies

Single- and three-phase SITOP modular units are the technology power supplies
for demanding solutions. The wide-range input makes it possible to connect to
almost any electrical power system worldwide and ensures a high degree of safety
even when large voltage fluctuations occur.
They offer outstanding overload characteristics: Power boost delivers up to three-
times the rated current for short periods of time, and with extra power of 150%,
loads with high power consumption can be connected without any problems.
The very high efficiency keeps energy consumption and heat dissipation in the
control cabinet very low and the compact metal housing also saves space.
Single-phase power supplies of S7-300 design can be mounted directly onto S7
rails. The range switchover to 1-phase 120/230V AC grids takes place
automatically.

16.2 Redundant Power Supply

The SITOP redundancy modules provide additional protection against failure of the
24V supply. Decoupling the two power supply units of the same type by means of a
redundancy module means that a failure of one power supply unit has no effect on
the 24V power supply.
The redundancy module continuously monitors the feeding power supply units. If a
unit fails, the other one automatically supplies the power. In addition, signaling is
carried out by means of a signal contact that is evaluated in SIMATIC PCS 7.

16.4 Redundant Power Supply with Selective Monitoring of

the 24V Feeders
SITOP selectivity modules are an optimum enhancement for all 24V power
supplies to distribute the load current to several feeders and to monitor it.
Overloads and short-circuits in one or more feeders are detected reliably.
This is ensured even on high-resistance lines and in the case of "creeping" short-
circuits. The intact feeders continue to supply the SITOP selectivity modules with
24 V on an absolutely interruption- and reaction-free basis. Their signal contact can
be looped across several selectivity modules and can be evaluated as a common
alarm in SIMATIC PCS 7.

16.5 Buffered Power Supply

A power failure not only interrupts the AC power supply but also the 24V supply
and the automation system that is connected to it. Costly downtime and undefined
system states can be the result.
The SITOP UPS1600 DC UPS with battery modules prevents this scenario by
providing reliable backup of the 24V supply for up to several hours. Depending on

17 Possibilities for Data Exchange
Client–Server system and OpenPCS 7

SIMATIC PCS 7 offers access to all real-time values, archive values, and
messages at any time. The OpenPCS 7 software is the extensive interface for this
access. It establishes the connection to the SIMATIC PCS 7 OS Servers as well as
to the Central Archive servers and offers access to all the data via standard OPC
server technology. It combines OPC UA DA (Unified Architecture), OPC DA (Data
Access), OPC HDA (Historical Data Access), OPC AE (Alarms & Events) and OPC
HAE (Historical Alarms & Events) in one system.
In addition to this, it is also possible to achieve simple, standardized direct access
to the archive data in the Microsoft SQL Server database of the Operator System
via OLE-DB.
Small system
Smaller systems benefit from a cost-effective combination of functionality from
OpenPCS 7 and OS Clients.
Large system
For large high-performance applications, OpenPCS 7 runs on a standalone PC and
provides access to all the data that is located on multiple redundant SIMATIC PCS
7 systems composed of an OS Server and a Process Historian.

18 AS-OS PO Counting
18.1 Process Objects
The following applies to the licensing of process objects (POs) in SIMATIC PCS 7:
The following are counted as process objects by PCS 7:
• all SFCs
• all block instances that meet the following criteria:
– they can be operated and monitored
– they generate messages
– they are not diagnostic modules
These objects are transferred to the OS and require a license.
Blocks that can be operated and monitored have the attribute "S7_m_c = true" in
their block properties.
Process objects can include the following blocks and objects:
• Blocks for operator control and monitoring of a system
• Objects for automation
• Objects for signal capture and processing
As a general rule, 0.75...1.5 I/Os correspond to one process object.

For PCS 7 licensing, the total number of process objects is counted regardless of
the number of inputs and outputs. The data that is exchanged with other
automation systems also has no effect on the number of process objects.
Note The described PO count may vary for individual blocks. For example, the Model
Predictive Controller (MPC) controller block is counted with 100 POs.
Note Under the following link, you can find an FAQ on how to count POs:
More information about licenses and quantity structures can be found in the
"PCS 7 Licenses and configuration limits (V9.1)" manual:
