Common Error Codes & System Events
- Event ID: 100
- System startup error — the operating system failed to initialize correctly on boot.
Check the hard disk or CompactFlash card for errors. Verify OS integrity and re-image if necessary. - Event ID: 200
- Hardware watchdog timeout — the watchdog timer was not serviced within the expected interval.
Check CPU load and running processes. Restart the Panel PC and investigate any software causing excessive CPU usage. - Event ID: 300
- Temperature warning — internal temperature has exceeded the recommended operating threshold.
Check ambient temperature and ensure ventilation slots are not blocked. Verify cooling fan operation if applicable. - Event ID: 400
- Power supply undervoltage — the 24 V DC supply voltage has dropped below the minimum threshold.
Measure the supply voltage at the power connector. Ensure the power supply unit provides a stable 24 V DC within tolerance. - Event ID: 500
- Communication interface error — loss of communication on the Ethernet or serial interface.
Check network cable connections and interface settings. Verify IP configuration and communication partner availability. - Event ID: 600
- Storage media error — read/write error detected on the hard disk or CompactFlash storage.
Run a disk check utility. Replace the CompactFlash card or hard disk if errors persist. - Event ID: 700
- Application software fault — the HMI or SCADA application has crashed or become unresponsive.
Restart the application. Check for software updates or configuration errors in WinCC or the installed HMI software.

Troubleshooting
Display remains blank after power on
Check the 24 V DC supply voltage at the power connector. Verify that the supply is within tolerance and that the power LED is illuminated.
If supply voltage is correct but display remains blank, check the internal fuse and the display backlight. The backlight inverter or the display panel itself may require replacement.
Touchscreen does not respond or is inaccurate
Determine whether the issue is a hardware fault or a calibration problem by checking if the cursor moves correctly in the operating system.
Recalibrate the touchscreen using the Windows calibration utility. If the touchscreen remains unresponsive, inspect the touch controller connection or replace the touchscreen overlay.
Panel PC fails to boot or operating system does not start
Check for error messages during POST (Power-On Self-Test). Attempt to boot from an external medium to determine if the storage device is faulty.
Replace the CompactFlash card or hard disk and re-image the operating system. Ensure the BIOS boot order is correctly configured.
Loss of communication with PLC or network
Verify Ethernet cable integrity and check the IP address configuration in Windows. Ping the PLC or network device to confirm connectivity.
Replace the Ethernet cable if damaged. Reconfigure the IP settings if incorrect. Check the network switch or hub for faults. Update the network adapter driver if necessary.
Unit overheating or shutting down unexpectedly
Monitor the internal temperature via the BIOS or system monitoring software. Check that ambient temperature is within the 0 to 45 degrees C operating range.
Ensure ventilation clearances around the panel cutout are maintained. Clean any dust from ventilation slots. If a cooling fan is fitted, verify it is operating correctly and replace if faulty.
