3.4.2  Pre-configured -HMI PROFINET/PROFIBUS (PN/DP) 
The -HMI PN/DP software package includes the Windows Embedded operating system, 
WinCC flexible RT as well as integrated CP 5611 and Industrial Ethernet communication 
interfaces. All software is pre-installed on your hardware platform and pre-configured.  
You do not have to perform any additional installation or configuration; however, you can use 
the SIMATIC PC Wizard to adjust your PC display preferences.  
-HMI configuration 
The -HMI PN/DP software package does not include a PC Station configuration. You transfer 
WinCC flexible projects directly from the engineering station to WinCC flexible RT on the 
hardware platform. You can perform transfers over the following channels: 
●  Default: 
–  Serial 
–  Industrial Ethernet 
●  Optionally configurable: 
–  MPI 
–  USB 
You can connect other devices such as a mouse, keyboard, or storage device to the 
hardware platform via the USB ports. To use the restore DVD (Page 41), you need a  
USB DVD-ROM dri
ve. You do not ne
ed these USB devices for general operation.  
The hardware platform uses a CompactFlash card for data storage. Typically, you use the 
Enhanced Write Filter (EWF) to protect the C:\ drive of the CompactFlash card; however, 
you must take care to manage the EWF (Page 35) if you use the C:\ drive for any file 
storage. For WinCC flexible RT, a D:\ drive on the 
CompactFlash card with the EWF 
disabled is recommended.  
In addition to this documentation, you can find technical specifications and other information 
in the SIMATIC Embedded Bundles product documentation. Refer to the Introduction
