Installing and setting up PCU Base for IPC

Activate the remote access to the PC system
Overview
Basically, it is possible to access the Siemens PC system both via the plant network and via the
company network via VNC:
● The remote access to the Siemens PC system from a PG/PC in the system network is
activated via the factory setting.
Further information: Connection options in the system network (Page 262)
● If you want to access the Siemens PC system via the company network instead or in
addition, you must adapt the firewall settings.
The inbound rule "vnc5900", which is deactivated in the factory settings state, is available
for this purpose in the expanded settings for the Windows Firewall. To activate the remote
access to the PC system in the company network, you can activate this rule either directly
in the Control Panel (Page 209), or in the prompt or by means of a script/batch file
(Page 210).
Further information
In addition to the firewall settings, you may have to adapt other settings to establish a remote
connection in the company network.
Further information on this topic is provided in Chapter Remote access for diagnostics
(Page 272), especially under Remotely accessing the MCU for operation and maintenance
(Page 273).
