Common Error Codes & System Events

Event ID: 100: System startup error — the operating system failed to boot correctly, possibly due to a corrupted system partition or failed storage medium.
Check the CompactFlash card or hard disk for errors. Restore the system image using the Siemens recovery tools or replace the storage medium.
Event ID: 1000: Application fault — the HMI or SCADA application (e.g. WinCC) has crashed or terminated unexpectedly.
Review the Windows Event Viewer for application error details. Reinstall or repair the HMI software. Check for software compatibility with the OS version.
Event ID: 7000: Service failed to start — a required Windows service did not start during boot, which may prevent HMI software from running.
Check the Windows Event Log for the specific service name. Verify service startup settings and dependencies. Restore system image if the issue persists.
Hardware Error: No Display Output: The display remains blank or shows no image after power-on, indicating a possible backlight, inverter, or display connection failure.
Check the 24 V DC supply voltage. Inspect internal display cable connections. Replace the backlight inverter board or the TFT display panel if necessary.
Hardware Error: Touch Input Failure: The touchscreen does not respond to input or registers incorrect touch positions.
Recalibrate the touchscreen via the Windows control panel or BIOS utility. Inspect the touch controller connection. Replace the touch overlay if calibration does not resolve the issue.
Network Error: Ethernet Link Failure: The Ethernet interface does not establish a network connection, preventing communication with PLCs or SCADA servers.
Check the Ethernet cable and switch port. Verify IP address configuration in Windows network settings. Update or reinstall the network adapter driver if the interface is not recognized.
BIOS POST Error: Memory Fault: A memory error is detected during the Power-On Self-Test (POST), indicating faulty or unseated RAM modules.
Power down the unit and reseat the RAM module. Test with a known-good compatible RAM module. Replace the RAM if the error persists.

Yes, the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is designed to run SIMATIC WinCC and other PC-based HMI and SCADA software from Siemens, as well as standard Windows applications.

Troubleshooting

Display is blank after power-on

Check that the 24 V DC supply voltage is present and within tolerance at the power connector. Verify that the power LED is illuminated. If the PC is running but there is no display output, the backlight or inverter may have failed.

Confirm the supply voltage is stable at 24 V DC. If the unit powers on but the screen is dark, replace the backlight inverter or the TFT display assembly. If the unit does not power on at all, inspect internal fuses and the power supply board.

Touchscreen does not respond or registers incorrect input positions

Attempt to recalibrate the touchscreen through the Windows Control Panel (Mouse/Touch settings). Check for physical damage or contamination on the touch overlay surface.

Perform a touchscreen recalibration using the Siemens calibration utility or Windows Pointer Device settings. Clean the touch surface with a soft cloth. If the issue persists after recalibration, replace the resistive touch overlay panel.

Unit fails to boot into Windows — displays BIOS screen or error message

Check the CompactFlash card or hard disk drive for physical seating and integrity. A corrupted OS partition or failed storage medium is the most common cause of boot failure on this platform.

Reseat the CompactFlash card or hard disk. Use the Siemens system recovery CD to restore the factory OS image. If the storage medium has failed, replace it with a compatible unit and reinstall the operating system and HMI software.

Ethernet communication not established with PLC or SCADA server

Verify the Ethernet cable connection and check the link LED on the RJ45 port. Confirm the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings in Windows network configuration match the network topology.

Replace the Ethernet cable if no link LED is present. Reconfigure the network adapter settings in Windows. If the adapter is not recognized by the OS, reinstall the network driver from the Siemens recovery media or device driver package.

HMI application (WinCC) crashes or does not start

Review the Windows Event Viewer (Application and System logs) for error messages related to WinCC or its dependencies. Check available disk space and RAM usage.

Free up disk space if the storage medium is nearly full. Repair or reinstall the WinCC software using the original installation media. Ensure the WinCC version is compatible with the installed Windows OS version and apply any required service packs or patches.
