PCS 7/OPEN OS Runtime Component Option V9.0

Using the PCS 7/OPEN OS Runtime Component Option, a SIMATIC PCS 7 Operator Station of single station design or a server configured in accordance with the ST PCS 7 catalog can be expanded with PCS 7/OPEN OS runtime software and licenses for the integration of various controller types/package units. For each PCS 7/OPEN OS single station or PCS 7/OPEN OS server, one PCS 7/OPEN OS Runtime Component Option is required; two are required for each redundant PCS 7/OPEN OS single station or PCS 7/OPEN OS server pair.
