Common Error Codes & System Events
- Event ID: 1000
- Application error — a software application on the Panel PC has encountered a fatal error and terminated unexpectedly.
Check the Windows Event Viewer for details on the faulting application. Reinstall or update the affected software. Ensure the operating system and drivers are up to date. - Event ID: 7026
- Boot-start or system-start driver failed to load during Windows startup.
Check Device Manager for driver conflicts or missing drivers. Reinstall the appropriate hardware driver. Verify hardware integrity of the affected component. - Event ID: 6008
- Unexpected system shutdown — the previous system shutdown was unexpected, indicating a possible power failure or system crash.
Check the 24 V DC power supply for stability and correct voltage. Review system logs for prior error events. Inspect hardware for overheating or memory faults. - BIOS POST Error
- Power-On Self-Test failure detected during boot, indicating a hardware fault such as failed RAM, missing boot device, or CPU error.
Reseat memory modules and check all internal connections. Verify that the boot drive (CompactFlash or HDD) is properly connected and functional. Replace faulty hardware components as identified. - WinCC Runtime Error
- Siemens WinCC HMI runtime software has encountered a configuration or communication error and cannot start or maintain a connection to the PLC.
Check the WinCC project configuration and verify the communication settings match the connected PLC. Ensure the Ethernet or MPI interface is correctly configured. Restart the WinCC runtime and check for license validity. - No Boot Device Found
- The Panel PC cannot locate a valid bootable storage device during startup.
Check the CompactFlash card or hard disk drive for proper seating and functionality. Verify BIOS boot order settings. Replace the storage medium if it has failed and restore the operating system image. - Watchdog Timeout
- The hardware watchdog timer has triggered a system reset due to the operating system or application becoming unresponsive.
Investigate the cause of the system hang, such as a runaway process or memory leak. Check system resource utilization. Update or reinstall the HMI application and ensure adequate CPU and RAM resources are available.

Troubleshooting
Display remains blank after power on
Check that the 24 V DC supply voltage is present and within tolerance at the power input connector. Verify that the backlight is functioning by shining a light at the screen to check for a faint image.
If supply voltage is correct but display is blank, the backlight inverter or CCFL backlight lamp may have failed. Replace the backlight assembly or the display unit. If no voltage is present, check the external power supply and wiring.
Panel PC fails to boot or gets stuck at BIOS screen
Check the boot storage device (CompactFlash card or HDD) for proper connection and functionality. Attempt to access the BIOS setup to verify the boot order and detect the storage device.
Reseat or replace the CompactFlash card or hard disk drive. Restore the operating system image from a backup. If the BIOS does not detect any storage device, the medium has likely failed and must be replaced.
Touchscreen does not respond or is inaccurate
Check if the touchscreen controller is recognized in Windows Device Manager. Attempt to recalibrate the touchscreen using the Windows calibration utility or the Siemens-provided calibration tool.
Recalibrate the touchscreen via the control panel. If the touchscreen remains unresponsive, check the internal ribbon cable connection between the touch panel and the controller board. Replace the touch panel or controller if the connection is intact but the issue persists.
Loss of communication with PLC or SCADA system
Verify the Ethernet cable connection and check the network configuration (IP address, subnet mask, gateway) in Windows. Ping the PLC or SCADA server from the Panel PC to test network connectivity.
Correct any IP address conflicts or misconfiguration. Replace the Ethernet cable if faulty. Check the WinCC or HMI project communication settings and ensure they match the PLC configuration. Restart the HMI runtime application.
System clock loses time after power off
The real-time clock (RTC) battery on the motherboard is likely depleted, causing the BIOS clock to reset on each power cycle.
Replace the CMOS battery on the Panel PC motherboard with the correct replacement type (typically CR2032). After replacement, set the correct date and time in the BIOS and save the settings.
