Long-term archive with Process Historian
The Process Historian is used in PCS 7 as an external server for long-term archiving of system
data. You can information on this in the system manual

3.7.2 BATCH single station system
BATCH as single-station system on a single PC
● The BATCH single-station system is a BATCH station on a single PC. Complete operator
control and monitoring functionality is available for a process cell. A BATCH single-station
system is associated with a BATCH project (process cell/unit).
● A connection is needed for the required data communication:
– In PC-based operation, an interface to the terminal bus is required for coupling to an
operator station (OS server) and for the data communication between the automation
systems.
– Two connections are required in AS-based operation:
a) A connection to the terminal bus for coupling to an operator station (OS server)
b) A connection to the plant bus for coupling the automation systems.
● You use a BATCH single-station system to operate and monitor an entire plant. When
several process cells are operated in parallel, an additional BATCH single-station system
with corresponding connections to the OS server is needed for each process cell. If you
are monitoring several systems, we recommend using a BATCH station multiple-station
system (Page 24).
● If several BATCH single-station systems are used: Each BATCH single-station system used
must be connected to another OS system.
● You can operate BATCH single-station systems redundantly.
● A connection to an OS server must exist in order to use process mode.
