Description of functions

Alphabetical Reference

QCU Home Address

Enter the Æ IP address of the QCU-Server on which the QoS-Data have to be reported.

Standard value Æ page 96.

Æ page 54

QCU Standby Address

Only available when using a second communication platform.

Enter the Æ IP address of the QCU-Server on which the QoS-Data have to be reported during emergency mode.

Æ page 54

QDC Server

Enter the Æ Port-Number for communication with the QDC-Server.

Standard value Æ page 96.

Æ page 56

QoS L2/L3

The settings relate to the Æ Layer 2 and Æ Layer 3 areas of the Æ QoS, that regulate the prioritisation of the transferred data.

For Layer 2, the Æ VLAN Method and the Æ Default VLAN ID can be changed. For Layer 3, the Æ L2/L3 Voice/Signalling can be changed.

The activation of Layer 2 and / or Layer 3 support is meaningful only if the used Æ Switch can interpret this information (e.g., "Layer 2 Switch").

Standard value Æ page 96.

Æ page 23 Æ page 53

QoS Protocol Version

The Version Number gives information regarding the actuality of the QoS report file (read only).

Æ page 54

RAM Test

Here you can test the Æ RAM memory of your optiPoint 410/420.

The results are displayed after the test is over.

Æ page 26 Æ page 49

Report Interval

Time interval (in sec.) in reports are sent.

For each Report Interval a QoS report will be sent if the Æ Report Mode was set accordingly.

Valid values: 10 ... 3600.

2000 specifications

Siemens 2000 is a robust and advanced industrial automation system that exemplified Siemens' commitment to innovation and efficiency in manufacturing during its launch period. Known for its modular design and interoperability, Siemens 2000 leveraged the latest technologies to create a more integrated and flexible manufacturing environment.

One of the standout features of Siemens 2000 is its use of the S7 series programmable logic controllers (PLCs). These programmable devices allowed for real-time monitoring and control of various industrial processes. The S7 PLCs were designed to handle complex automation tasks while offering an intuitive programming interface through the STEP 7 software. This enabled operators to create and modify programs easily, enhancing responsiveness to production changes.

Another notable characteristic of Siemens 2000 is its emphasis on connectivity. The system utilized Industrial Ethernet for communication between devices, ensuring high-speed data transfer and reliable connections across the network. This facilitated a more cohesive integration of machinery and systems, leading to improved workflow and productivity. The support for various communication protocols, such as Profibus and Profinet, allowed for seamless integration into existing infrastructures.

Siemens 2000 also introduced features that enhanced data acquisition and processing through SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems. These capabilities provided operators with real-time insights into production metrics, enabling predictive maintenance and proactive decision-making. The combination of advanced analytics tools and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) allowed users to visualize data patterns easily, improving overall operational efficiency.

Safety was a paramount consideration in the design of Siemens 2000. The system included integrated safety features that complied with international standards, providing reliable protection for both personnel and equipment. These safety measures ensured that potential hazards were identified and mitigated, promoting a secure working environment.

In conclusion, Siemens 2000 represented a significant leap forward in industrial automation with its modular and flexible architecture. The integration of advanced PLCs, seamless connectivity through Industrial Ethernet, sophisticated data processing capabilities, and a strong focus on safety made it a preferred choice for manufacturers looking to enhance their productivity and operational excellence during its time. The legacy of Siemens 2000 continues to influence modern automation solutions, embodying the principles of efficiency, safety, and innovation.
