5.5 Operator stations
5.5.1 Overview of configuration steps
Introduction
The following sections describe how to configure redundancy for operator stations.
Overview of configuration steps
You configure the redundancy functionality of the operator stations by performing the following
steps:
Step What?
1 Configuring the PC stations for a redundant OS server pair (Page 152)
2 Setting the project path for the target OS and standby OS (Page 155)
3 Creating a redundant connection between an OS and AS (Page 156)
4 Configuring redundancy for OS servers on the engineering station (Page 159)
5 Setting the redundancy connection for OS servers (Page 161)
6 Assigning S7 programs to the OS (Page 162)
7 Configuring an OS client (Page 163)
8 Configuring an OS client for permanent operability (Page 165)
9 Downloading the SIMATIC PCS 7 project to the target systems (Page 168)
5.5.2 How to configure an OS server and its redundant OS partner server
Introduction
The following describes the individual steps involved in installing the OS server and its
redundant OS partner server.
The example below shows the redundant connection of the two OS servers of the server pair
to the plant bus (using two CP 1623 or CP 1613 communication processors, for example, per
server).
Requirements
● The PCS 7 project with a SIMATIC H station is open in SIMATIC Manager.
● The PCs have two communication processors each for connection to the plant bus.
● Each PC has a standard network adapter for connection to the terminal bus.
