3.3 MS single station system
MS single-station system in the OS single-station system
The maintenance station is operated on the engineering station.
Plant configuration
The MS single-station system has the following functionalities:
● Operator station (OS)
● Engineering station (ES)
● Maintenance Station (MS)
● SIMATIC PDM
The complete operator control and monitoring functionality for a PCS 7 project (plant/unit) is
located in one station. The OS areas and the "Diagnostics" area of the MS are displayed in
the overview area of the process control.
The "Diagnostics" area visualizes the diagnostics state via diagnostics screens, providing the
required operator control and monitoring functions.
The MS single-station system on the plant bus can be used in parallel with additional single-
station or multiple-station systems.
