Description
Additional information

The Siemens 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0 is a Panel PC belonging to the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 series, manufactured by Siemens. It is an industrial panel-mounted PC designed for demanding human-machine interface (HMI) and visualization tasks in automation environments. This unit combines a built-in display with a full PC architecture, enabling advanced process visualization, data acquisition, and control functions.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 (6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0) features a 15-inch TFT display with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels (XGA) and a touch-sensitive screen for operator interaction. It is based on an x86-compatible processor architecture and supports standard PC operating systems such as Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Embedded, allowing the use of standard SCADA and HMI software packages including WinCC and WinCC flexible. The unit provides multiple communication interfaces including Ethernet (RJ45), serial ports (RS-232), USB ports, and optionally PROFIBUS, enabling integration into a wide range of automation networks. The robust industrial housing is designed for front-panel mounting with an IP65 protection rating on the front face.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is widely used in the automotive, food and beverage, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries for machine-level and plant-level visualization. Its PC-based architecture makes it suitable for applications requiring complex data processing, recipe management, historical data logging, and integration with enterprise-level systems. The combination of a rugged industrial enclosure and standard PC functionality makes it appropriate for installation in control cabinets and operator stations in factory automation environments.

Common Error Codes & System Events

Event ID: 100: Operating system startup failure or boot error detected during POST sequence.
Check hard disk or CompactFlash card integrity. Verify BIOS settings and reseat storage media. Replace storage device if faulty.
Event ID: 200: Fan failure or thermal warning — cooling fan not operating within specified speed range.
Inspect and clean the cooling fan. Replace the fan if it is not spinning or is running below rated speed to prevent thermal shutdown.
Event ID: 300: Watchdog timeout — the system watchdog timer has triggered due to software hang or unresponsive application.
Restart the Panel PC. Investigate the running application for memory leaks or infinite loops. Update or reinstall the HMI software if the issue persists.
Event ID: 400: Battery low warning — the CMOS backup battery voltage is below the minimum threshold.
Replace the internal CMOS lithium battery (CR2032 or equivalent) to prevent loss of BIOS settings and real-time clock data.
Event ID: 500: Communication interface error — Ethernet or serial communication link has failed or is not established.
Check cable connections and network configuration. Verify IP address settings and ensure the connected PLC or network device is active.
Event ID: 600: Touchscreen calibration error — touch input is misaligned or not responding correctly to operator input.
Perform touchscreen recalibration using the Windows control panel or the Siemens calibration utility. Clean the screen surface and check for physical damage.
Event ID: 700: Hard disk or storage media error — read/write failure detected on the primary storage device.
Run a disk check utility (chkdsk). Back up data immediately. Replace the hard disk or CompactFlash card if errors persist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What operating systems are supported by the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 (6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0)?

The 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0 supports Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Embedded. These operating systems allow the use of standard Siemens HMI software such as WinCC and WinCC flexible.

What is the supply voltage for the 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0?

The unit operates on a 24 V DC supply voltage, which is standard for industrial panel PCs in automation environments.

What communication interfaces are available on this Panel PC?

The 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0 provides Ethernet (RJ45), RS-232 serial ports, and USB interfaces as standard. Optional PROFIBUS communication may also be available depending on the configuration.

What is the front panel protection rating of the SIMATIC Panel PC 670?

The front panel of the 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0 carries an IP65 protection rating, making it resistant to dust and water jets, suitable for installation in industrial control panels.

Is the touchscreen on the 6AV7613-0AA10-0AJ0 resistive or capacitive?

The touchscreen on this Panel PC is resistive type, which allows operation with gloves and is well-suited to industrial environments where the operator may not have bare hands.

Troubleshooting

Display remains blank after power on

Check the 24 V DC supply voltage at the power connector. Verify that the power LED indicator is illuminated. Measure voltage at the internal power supply output rails.

Ensure the 24 V DC supply is within tolerance. If the supply is correct but the display remains blank, the internal power supply board or the backlight inverter may be faulty and should be replaced.

Touchscreen does not respond or responds inaccurately

Attempt to control the unit using an external USB mouse or keyboard to determine if the issue is isolated to the touchscreen. Check for physical damage or contamination on the screen surface.

Recalibrate the touchscreen using the Windows calibration tool or Siemens utility. If calibration does not resolve the issue, the touchscreen overlay or the touch controller board may need replacement.

Panel PC fails to boot or continuously restarts

Observe the boot sequence on the display. Check if the BIOS POST completes successfully. Listen for hard disk activity and check if the operating system begins loading.

Reseat the storage media (hard disk or CompactFlash). If the storage device is faulty, replace it and reinstall the operating system and HMI software. Check BIOS settings for correct boot device order.

Ethernet communication not established with PLC or network

Check the Ethernet cable and RJ45 connector for damage. Verify the IP address configuration in Windows network settings. Use the ping command to test network connectivity.

Replace the Ethernet cable if damaged. Correct the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings. If the network adapter is not detected in Device Manager, the onboard Ethernet controller may be faulty.

System clock loses time after power off

The CMOS backup battery is likely discharged. Enter the BIOS setup after power on and check if the date and time are reset to default values.

Replace the internal CMOS lithium battery (typically CR2032). After replacement, set the correct date and time in the BIOS and save the settings before booting into the operating system.
