PCS 7 TeleControl Operator System
Single-user and multi-user systems
Depending on the magnitude of the automation project and 
the required number of operator stations, the SIMATIC PCS 7 
TeleControl Operator System can be configured either as a sin-
gle-user system (PCS 7 TeleControl OS single station) or as a 
multi-user system with client/server architecture:
• Single-user system 
- Up to 5 000 process objects 
- Up to approx. 3 000 measuring points
- Low number of operator stations
• Multi-user system (client/server) 
- Up to 8 500 process objects per OS server
- Up to approx. 5 000 measuring points per OS server
- Up to 32 operator stations (OS clients) 
In a single-user system architecture, all operation and moni-
toring functions for a complete project (plant/unit) are con-
centrated in one station.
A multi-user system has up to 32 operator stations (OS clients) 
which are supplied with data from one or more servers 
(OS server or PCS 7 TeleControl OS server) via the terminal 
bus.
The multi-client architecture of the multi-user system allows 
an OS client to call data from various servers, e.g. from two 
separate servers for local units and for units connected by 
means of PCS 7 TeleControl.
The PCS 7 TeleControl OS server of the multi-user system can 
also have a redundant design. All internally generated infor-
mation (e.g. alarm states or results of calculations) is matched 
in the redundant pair of PCS 7 TeleControl OS servers.
The graduated scalability of the process objects of PCS 7 
TeleControl OS single station and PCS 7 TeleControl OS server 
permits fine and flexible matching of the SIMATIC PCS 7 
TeleControl Operator System to the size of the respective 
automation project.
Uniform process control for central and remote units
Dual-channel operation
Dual-channel operation with single-user and multi-user systems
PCS 7 TeleControl OS single station and PCS 7 TeleControl OS 
server are preferably used just for telecontrol functions (dedi-
cated), but can also access central SIMATIC PCS 7 plant areas 
via an additional second channel in the case of small quantity 
frameworks (double-channel operation). In this way, data 
from the RTUs of the telecontrol system can be displayed in 
one process image together with data from SIMATIC PCS 7 AS.
