8.6 Operation of SIMATIC BATCH with more than one PCS 7 OS

4. When changing the names of existing equipment modules (EM).
Recommendation: Assign the name change of existing equipment modules (EM) when
updating the process cell in the BCC (update dialog). You should reassign the new or
renamed equipment modules in the dialog following the update of the batch process cell.
If you do not use this dialog, the recipes will become invalid and you must readapt the new
assignments for every individual recipe.
5. When changing/adding setpoints, control strategies at SFC types.
Recommendation: Assign the name change of the setpoints of an SFC type when updating
process cells in the BatchCC (update dialog). Renamed setpoints should be assigned in
the dialog following the update of the batch process cell. If you do not use this dialog, the
recipes will become invalid and you must readapt the new assignment for every individual
recipe. If you add or delete setpoints or control strategies, you must always select and save
the functions in which changes have been made in every recipe. Otherwise, you will not
have valid recipes.
8.6 Operation of SIMATIC BATCH with more than one PCS 7 OS
In standard cases, SIMATIC BATCH can be used either as a single station system (SB server
with SB clients and OS server with OS client) on one computer or as a distributed system
(multiple station system) with multiple OS servers (single or redundant).
Redundancy with more than one PCS 7 OS
An additional variant is offered for the PCS 7 OS. This variant enables multiple redundancy
over multiple PCS 7 OS single station projects with corresponding configuration of the
automation systems.
Configuration conditions
The following conditions must be met for SIMATIC BATCH to be operated with multiple PCS
7 OS in the single station project type as multiple redundancy:
1. A SIMATIC BATCH server must be installed on one of the PCS 7 OS.
2. All automation systems relevant for SIMATIC BATCH must be connected with this PCS 7
OS.
3. All S7 programs of the automation systems relevant for SIMATIC BATCH must be compiled
and downloaded to this PCS 7 OS in "AS-oriented" compilation mode. The configuration
example includes the S7 programs of AS 1, AS 2 and AS 3.
4. This PCS 7 OS must be specified as message OS.
