■

OS basic hardware and OS software are structured by OS single 

station, OS server and OS client in compliance with the architec-

ture of the operator system and are accordingly coordinated in 

this regard. 

■

The OS standard software of OS single stations and OS clients 

can be expanded by SIMATIC PCS 7 SFC Visualization and 

Safety Matrix Viewer. 
The high-performance cyclic buffer archiving system integrated 

as standard in OS single station and OS server for short-term ar-

chiving of up to 512 variables can be expanded within the limit 

of 10000 variables using SIMATIC PCS 7 archive licenses and 

SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive PowerPacks. The SIMATIC PCS 7 ar-

chive licenses (Count Relevant Licenses) are cumulative. 

SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive PowerPacks permit expansion in steps 

from 1500 to 5000 or 10000 variables. For ordering data for 

SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive and SIMATIC PCS 7 Archive Power-

Packs, refer to page 5/20.
The short-term archive can also be combined with a long-term 

archive. StoragePlus is available for long-term archiving in the 

bottom performance range, and the central archive server (CAS) 

is envisaged for the top performance range. See page 5/19 for 

details.
You can also implement redundant system configurations with 

OS single stations and OS servers. See page 5/16 for details.
The following tables provide a selection aid for ordering an op-

erator station. Depending on whether a redundant or non-redun-

dant design is selected, the tables indicate the respectively re-

quired number of
• SIMATIC PCS 7 Industrial Workstations,
• licenses for OS standards software, and
• licenses for optionally used supplementary OS software.

The "SQL Server" software from Microsoft delivered with 

SIMATIC PCS 7 may not be used outside the SIMATIC PCS 7 

environment without the written approval of Siemens.
