The SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstations of type Rack PC 547B have a painted all-metal housing of 19" rack design which is particularly protected against dust by a filter and pressurized ventilation. This mechanically and electromechanically rugged housing has a service-friendly design. The SIMATIC PCS 7 In- dustrial Workstations of type Rack PC 547B can be positioned and installed horizontally or vertically. High-grade components with high MTBF values and monitoring functions for the inner housing temperature, fan and program execution permit reliable 24-hour continuous operation at ambient temperatures between 5 and 40 °C.

The SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstations of type Rack PC

547B have the following features:

•Motherboard with future-oriented Intel architecture for modern Core 2 Duo processors, based on Intel 945G Express chipset

•Powerful AGP graphics with Dynamic Video Memory, sound (Line In, Line Out, Mic.) and 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet RJ45 port integrated onboard

•PCI-Express technology (1 PCIe x16 and 2 PCIe x1 slots)

•6 slots for drives:

-At the front: three 5.25" slots (1 occupied by DVD-ROM/ DVD-RW) and

-one 3.5" slot (occupied by diskette drive)

-Inside: two 3.5" slots (occupied by 1 hard disk on the client, and 2 hard disks on the server and ES/OS single station)

•Increased system availability through RAID 1 with 2 SATA hard disks and NCQ technology (Native Command Queuing) on the server and ES/OS single station

•Second serial interface (for server) available (COM2)

•Total of 6 USB 2.0 interfaces (4 at rear, 2 at front)

•High electromagnetic compatibility (CE-certified for industrial and office environments)

•Dust protection by means of pressurized ventilation in con- junction with a front fan and a dust filter

•PC front complies with IP30 degree of protection when the front door is closed

•Front door can be locked to prevent unauthorized access to swap media, control elements and interfaces located at the front

•Easy and fast installation and maintenance of PC compo- nents: access to the front drives through a hinged front door; only 3 screws to open the device

•3 LEDs on the front of the PC visualize the operating status:

-Power (switched on)

-HD (hard disk access)

-Status (fan and temperature monitoring)

•Suitable for easy mounting with telescopic rails

•Easy to remove fixing bracket with handles

•Card hold-down device to secure PC modules during trans- portation and to protect them from vibration and shock

•Power supply unit with temperature-controlled fan

•Power connector lock for the power supply cable

•SIMATIC PC DiagMonitor diagnostics software for monitoring program execution (watchdog), temperature, fan speed, hard disk status and system failure (heartbeat); including operating hours counter

•Can be integrated into the system diagnostics of the SIMATIC PCS 7 asset management by means of SIMATIC PC DiagMon- itor

Restore DVD

The operating system and SIMATIC PCS 7 software are prein- stalled on the basic devices. Two restore DVDs are supplied for quickly restoring the delivered status if required.

•Restore DVD 1 only contains the operating system with default settings for optimum PCS 7 operation

•Restore DVD 2 contains a full installation (operating system plus ES/OS software including SQL server)
