€ 1.870,00
The Siemens 6AV7260-1DQ30-0BX0 is a panel PC belonging to the SIMATIC IPC277D series, part of Siemens' industrial-grade embedded panel PC lineup. It is designed for demanding human-machine interface applications requiring a robust, fanless computing platform integrated with a touchscreen display. This unit combines the functionality of an industrial PC with a flat-panel operator interface in a single compact enclosure.
The IPC277D features a widescreen display with a resistive or projected capacitive touch interface, depending on the variant, and is built around an Intel Atom processor for reliable embedded performance. It supports communication via standard interfaces including USB, Ethernet (RJ45), and optionally PROFIBUS or PROFINET, enabling seamless integration into Siemens automation architectures. The unit runs Windows Embedded Standard 7 or Windows 7 and is designed for fanless, maintenance-reduced operation with solid-state storage options. It carries a front-side IP65 protection rating, making it suitable for panel-mount installation in industrial environments.
The SIMATIC IPC277D is widely deployed in manufacturing, process automation, and machine tool applications where a combined HMI and computing platform is required. It is compatible with Siemens WinCC, WinCC flexible, and other SCADA or visualization software packages. Industries such as automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and general factory automation commonly use this panel PC for supervisory control and data visualization tasks.

Common Error Codes and System Events
- Event ID: 100
- Operating system startup failure or boot error detected during POST sequence.
Check storage medium (CFast card or SSD) for integrity. Re-image or replace the storage device if corrupted. - Event ID: 1000
- Application crash or unexpected software termination reported by Windows Event Log.
Review Windows Event Viewer for faulting module details. Reinstall or update the affected application or driver. - Event ID: 6008
- Unexpected system shutdown recorded; previous shutdown was unclean.
Check 24 V DC supply stability. Inspect power connector and wiring. Verify UPS or power conditioning if voltage dips are suspected. - Communication Error
- Loss of communication between the panel PC and the PLC or network device.
Verify Ethernet cable connections and switch configuration. Check IP address settings and firewall rules within the operating system. - Touchscreen Not Responding
- Touch input is not registered or is erratic after startup.
Recalibrate the touchscreen via the Siemens Calibration Tool in the Control Panel. If persistent, check the touch controller connection internally or replace the touch overlay. - Temperature Warning
- Internal temperature sensor reports overtemperature condition.
Verify ambient temperature is within 0–50 °C operating range. Ensure panel cutout ventilation clearances are maintained. Clean any dust from the rear enclosure vents. - Storage Medium Error
- CFast card or SSD is not detected or reports read/write errors.
Reseat the CFast card. Test the card in another device. Replace with a Siemens-approved CFast card if faulty. Re-image the operating system if data corruption is confirmed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What operating system does the SIMATIC IPC277D 6AV7260-1DQ30-0BX0 run?
This unit is supplied with Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7) or Windows 7 Ultimate, depending on the order configuration. It is not designed to run standard desktop Windows installations without Siemens-specific drivers.
What visualization software is compatible with this panel PC?
The IPC277D is compatible with Siemens WinCC, WinCC flexible, WinCC Runtime Advanced, and third-party SCADA packages that support Windows 7. It can also run standard Windows-based HMI applications.
What is the supply voltage for this unit?
The 6AV7260-1DQ30-0BX0 requires a 24 V DC power supply. Ensure the supply is stable and within the specified tolerance to prevent unexpected shutdowns.
Is the front panel of this device rated for washdown environments?
The front panel carries an IP65 protection rating, making it resistant to dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. The rear of the enclosure is rated IP20 and must be protected from moisture and contamination.
Can the storage medium be replaced in the field?
Yes, the CFast card used as the primary storage medium is accessible and can be replaced in the field. A replacement card must be re-imaged with the correct operating system and application software before installation.
Troubleshooting
Display remains blank after power is applied
Measure 24 V DC at the power input connector. Check the internal fuse if accessible. Verify the power supply output is within tolerance under load.
Replace the power supply if voltage is absent or out of range. If supply voltage is correct, the internal DC/DC converter or backlight inverter may have failed and the unit should be sent for repair.
Touchscreen input is inaccurate or unresponsive
Determine whether the issue is present immediately after boot or develops over time. Check for physical damage or contamination on the touch surface.
Run the Siemens touchscreen calibration utility from the Control Panel. Clean the touch surface with a soft, dry cloth. If calibration does not resolve the issue, the touch overlay or controller board may require replacement.
Unit does not boot and shows no display output
Listen for POST beep codes. Check whether the power LED is illuminated. Attempt to connect an external monitor via available video output if present.
Reseat the CFast card and RAM modules if accessible. Re-image the CFast card with the correct OS image. If the unit still fails to boot, the mainboard may have failed and requires professional repair.
Ethernet communication is intermittent or lost
Check the RJ45 connector for physical damage or loose seating. Verify network switch port status and cable integrity using a cable tester.
Replace the Ethernet cable. Assign a static IP address to eliminate DHCP-related issues. Update the network adapter driver via Siemens support if the port is detected but unstable.
System runs slowly or application performance has degraded
Check CPU and memory utilization via Windows Task Manager. Inspect the CFast card for available free space and check for read/write errors using disk diagnostic tools.
Remove unnecessary startup applications. If the CFast card shows errors, back up data and replace the card with a new Siemens-approved unit. Re-image the operating system and restore the application.
