Using the Maintenance Station

3 3.1 Application, version and configuration Application Maintenance station focuses on "Plant Asset Management" and enables preventive and predictive diagnostics and maintenance of the plant. In parallel with process control, the maintenance station makes available consistent maintenance information and functions for the system components (assets). While the plant operator receives all process-relevant information and can intervene selectively in the process via the operator system (OS), the maintenance engineer inspects the automation system hardware and processes the associated diagnostic messages and maintenance demands via the maintenance station. The basis for a maintenance station is always an OS that provides this maintenance functionality. The OS that has maintenance functionality and the mode in which the maintenance station that is operated is determined in the plant hierarchy of the SIMATIC Manager. You can find basic information on engineering, configuration and process control in the following documentation: ● Process Control System PCS 7; Engineering System ● Process Control System PCS 7; Operator Station ● Online help for WinCC Versions The maintenance station can be used in the following versions: ● Maintenance Station Basic (integrated in the PCS 7 project) – Is referred to as MS Basic in the document ● Maintenance Station Standard (integrated in the PCS 7 project) – Is referred to as MS Standard in the document ● SIMATIC PDM Maintenance Station (stand-alone project) – Referred to as SIMATIC PDM MS in the document Note If you are running a maintenance station in the plant, the sign-of-life monitoring with "Lifebeat Monitoring" must be disabled.

Additional information Additional information is available in the manual Process Control System PCS 7; Operator Station in the sections "Downloading the server data" and "How to compile and download several operator stations". 5.21 Changes in the project Change in the version You change the version in the SIMATIC Manager in the plant hierarchy settings. You can find additional information about this in the section "How to make the settings in the plant hierarchy (Page 50)" If you change the version of the maintenance station, you must observe the following: ● MS Standard to MS Basic – The diagnostic structure below the AS objects, the diagnostic structure of the field devices and the user diagnostic structure including the contained pictures are deleted. ● MS Basic to MS Standard – The diagnostic structure of the AS objects is regenerated. – The diagnostic structure of the field devices is created. ● MS Standard to SIMATIC PDM MS – The diagnostic structure of the AS objects including the contained pictures is deleted. – The diagnostic structure of the field devices is regenerated. ● SIMATIC PDM MS to MS Standard – The diagnostic structure of the field devices including the contained screens is regenerated. – The diagnostic structure of the AS objects is generated. ● MS Basic to SIMATIC PDM MS – The diagnostic structure of the AS objects including the contained pictures is deleted. – The diagnostic structure of the field devices is created. ● SIMATIC PDM MS to MS Basic – The diagnostic structure of the field devices and the user diagnostic structure including the accompanying screens are deleted. – The diagnostic structure of the AS objects is generated. Configuring the maintenance stations 5.21 Changes in the project Maintenance Station 84 Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA

After changes, you may have to perform the following tasks:

● Creating/updating the diagnostic screens (Page 80) ● Compilation and downloading of the Maintenance Station (Page 82) ● Server data and downloading of a client (Page 83) Changes in HW Config Changes in the hardware configuration of the engineering system affect the displays in the diagnostic screens. After changes, perform the following tasks: ● Creating/updating the diagnostic screens (Page 80) ● Compilation and downloading of the Maintenance Station (Page 82) Add OS server Perform the following tasks if an OS server is added after creation of the diagnostic structure in the multiproject/project: ● Assign OS server server data to the MS server You can find more information on this topic in the Process Control System PCS 7; Operator Station manual in the section "How to load server data". ● Load MS server You can find additional information about this in the section "Compilation and downloading of the Maintenance Station (Page 82)". Subsequently defining OS server as MS server If an OS server is defined at a later point in time as MS server in a plant in operation, you need to perform not only the configuration tasks described for the MS server but also a download for the OS client, which assumes the role of the OS/MS client. For additional information on downloading, refer to the section "Server data and downloading of a client (Page 83)".

Changes in the software

● Change the standard message server for the "Alarms" component If the assigned standard message server for the "Alarms" component is changed in a plant configuration in a multiple-station system with an OS client, the MS server then has to be compiled and downloaded. You can find additional information about this in the manual Process Control System PCS 7; Operator Station in the section "How to assign the standard server". ● Change the screen resolution If the screen resolution is changed in the "Available Layouts:" group on the "Layout" tab of the OS project editor, the next time "Create/Update Diagnostic Screens" is called, the available overview screen is renamed and a new overview screen that corresponds to the new screen resolution is created. A respective message is included in the log of the function "Create/Update Diagnostics Screens". This also provides the new name of the former overview screen. If you have manually changed the overview screen, you can manually carry out the changes in the current overview picture by copying from the former overview screen. All other existing diagnostic screens retain their screen resolution. If the images are created in a new screen resolution, you must manually delete the screens. User-specific changes will be lost. Changing the storage location of a subproject If you change the storage location of a subproject with the "Save As" function, you must stop the SIMATIC PDM Asset Service before performing the "Save As" operation. When the "Save As" operation is finished, you must restart SIMATIC PDM Asset Service. 5.22 Deleting the diagnostics area Introduction During deletion of the diagnostic structure, the following is deleted: ● Diagnostics hierarchy folder with all subfolders ● Target objects ● Action objects ● Link objects Requirement ● The diagnostic structure and/or user diagnostic structure has been created. Note If you have manually changed diagnostic screens, make sure that you make a backup copy before deleting, because all changes will be lost after deleting and recreating the diagnostic structure.

Operator control and monitoring

6 6.1 Starting the process control MS Standard and MS Basic The start of the process control of a maintenance station is the same as the start of the process control of an Operator Station. When an MS multiple station system and SIMATIC PDM are used, the engineering station must be switched on and the SIMATIC PDM Asset Service started for the SIMATIC PDM device data to be provided. SIMATIC PDM MS Before activating process control, check the setting for the WinCC project type in WinCC Explorer. A single station project must be set as the project type. Activate process control in WinCC Explorer using the "Activate" icon. OS simulation You can only use the OS simulation function in the MS Standard or MS Basic version. OS simulation for a PCS7 maintenance station in MS Standard and MS Basic is possible only to a limited extent (for example, no identification or diagnostics data). Maintenance Station Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA 89

Layout of the user interface

User interface in the process control The user interface is structured in the same way as the Operator System interface. It is divided into 3 areas: ● Overview area (Page 91) The overview area is displayed permanently. Its group displays for the various plant areas and the message line provide an overview of the entire plant. Display and operator control in the overview area is the same as display and operator control in an OS. If deviations exist, the document points this out. ● Working area (Page 94) In the working area, the overview screen, the area overview screens and the diagnostic screens of the individual components are displayed for the diagnostics area. ● Button area (Page 94) The button area is displayed permanently. It comprises several button sets between which the maintenance engineer (operator of the "Diagnostics" area) can switch. The keys in the button sets are operated in the same way as the keys in an OS. If deviations exist, the document points this out. The following figure shows an example of the user interface: Operator control and monitoring 6.2 Layout of the user interface Maintenance Station 90 Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA

7, OS Process Control. 6.2.1 Overview area Display in the overview area The following figure shows an example of the overview area: This section describes only the icons that are specific to the maintenance station. "Highest priority messages" icon list If at least one message with Priority 16 is active (incoming or incoming acknowledged state), the icon is displayed. This priority is predefined by the system for emergency operation of an AS. To display the "Highest priority messages" list, click the icon. Icon Function Permission "Highest priority messag‐ es" list is called Enable for the diagnostics area In addition to the display of the icon, an AS process control message without area information is generated. The message comes in as soon as at least one highest priority message in the "Diagnostics" area has come in. As soon as all highest priority messages in the "Diagnostics" area have gone out, the message without area information is assigned the status "outgoing". For more information on configuration of the message priority see the manual Process Control System PCS 7; Operator Station. Sum status of the plant The plant operator obtains an overview of the statuses of the individual areas from the "Diagnostics" area. The icons are displayed on each operator station regardless of whether the "Diagnostic" area is assigned to this operator station. The following cases are exceptions to this: ● OS single-station projects ● All operator stations of a project if the maintenance station is an OS single-station project. Operator control and monitoring 6.2 Layout of the user interface Maintenance Station Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA 91

The following table shows an example of the assignment of the icons to their area and

describes the possible statuses that each icon can have. Display Area State PC stations ● Gray: There is no problem in the area. ● Yellow: There is at least one maintenance demand in the area. ● Red: There is at least one maintenance alarm in the area. ● Yellow/red: There is at least one maintenance demand and one maintenance alarm in the area. ● Blue: There is no connection to the MS server. Network objects AS/system Note If no maintenance group display is created for an area in the overview screen of the "Diagnostics" area, the corresponding icon is also not created. Messages without area information regarding maintenance state The system generates AS process control messages without area information regarding the maintenance state of components. These messages are displayed on every OS station: ● In the single message line of the overview area ● In the message lists It does not matter whether the "Diagnostics" area is shown on the operator station or not. If at least one component has the state "maintenance alarm/demand" in one of the diagnostics areas (PC stations, network objects, AS/system), a message without area information of the same message type is also generated for this area. When no more components have the state "maintenance alarm/demand", the message without area information is assigned the status "outgoing". Operator control and monitoring 6.2 Layout of the user interface Maintenance Station 92 Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA

The following table shows the messages without area information:

Message type Priority Message text Fault 0 ● Maintenance alarm in the PC stations area of MS ● Maintenance alarm in the network components area of MS ● Maintenance alarm in the AS system area of MS Error 0 ● Maintenance demanded in the PC stations area of MS ● Maintenance demanded in the network components area of MS ● Maintenance demanded in the AS system area of MS Area key for the diagnostics area The following figure shows an example of the area key for the diagnostics area: The area key is used to open the overview screen for the diagnostics area. Navigation through the picture hierarchy is similar to navigation through the picture hierarchy of the OS areas. Group display for the diagnostics area In addition to the area key, the current message state is displayed on the third button of the group display of the entire diagnostics area. The lower-level area overview screen is called via the group display. The following table shows default system settings for the possible states: Display Message type/state Priority Message state Message is locked (1) 1 - AS process control fault 2 ● "S" display ● Flashing Incoming message ● Static Message acknowledged AS process control error 3 "F" display ● Flashing Incoming message ● Static Message acknowledged Operator control and monitoring 6.2 Layout of the user interface Maintenance Station Function Manual, 03/2016, A5E36187641-AA 93
