€ 2.007,00
The Siemens 6AV7613-0AA10-0CJ0 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 industrial environments. This unit integrates computing hardware and a display into a single compact panel-mount enclosure suitable for control cabinet front-panel installation.
The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 6AV7613-0AA10-0CJ0 features a 12-inch TFT display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels (SVGA) and is based on an x86-compatible processor architecture running a Windows-based operating system. It provides standard PC interfaces including USB ports, serial COM ports, and an Ethernet interface for network connectivity and communication with Siemens SIMATIC S7 controllers and other automation systems. The unit is built to industrial standards with a fanless or low-maintenance cooling design and is rated for operation in harsh industrial conditions.
The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is widely used in manufacturing automation, process control, and machine visualization applications across industries such as automotive, food and beverage, chemical processing, and general factory automation. Its compatibility with Siemens WinCC and other SCADA/HMI software packages makes it suitable for complex visualization tasks requiring a full PC platform rather than a dedicated HMI terminal. The panel-mount form factor allows direct integration into machine control panels and operator stations.

Common Error Codes & System Events
- Event ID: 1000
- Application error or software fault detected by the Windows operating system, typically logged in the Windows Event Viewer.
Check the Windows Event Viewer for detailed error information. Reinstall or repair the affected application software. Verify software compatibility with the installed OS version. - Event ID: 7026
- A boot-start or system-start driver failed to load, indicating a hardware driver issue during startup.
Boot into safe mode and check Device Manager for driver conflicts. Reinstall or update the relevant hardware driver. Check for corrupted system files using Windows system repair tools. - BIOS POST Error
- The panel PC fails to complete the Power-On Self-Test (POST) during startup, indicating a hardware fault such as memory or CPU failure.
Check that all internal memory modules are properly seated. Disconnect non-essential peripherals and retry. If the fault persists, inspect the mainboard and replace faulty hardware components. - HMI Runtime Error
- The WinCC or ProTool HMI runtime application has encountered a fault and terminated unexpectedly.
Restart the HMI runtime application. Check the project configuration for errors. Verify that all required communication connections to the PLC are active and correctly configured. - Communication Fault
- Loss of communication between the Panel PC and the connected SIMATIC S7 PLC or other automation device.
Check Ethernet or serial cable connections. Verify IP address configuration and network settings. Confirm that the PLC is powered and running, and that the correct communication driver is configured in the HMI project. - Watchdog Timeout
- The system watchdog timer has triggered a reset due to the operating system or application becoming unresponsive.
Investigate running processes for software hangs or excessive CPU load. Check for memory leaks in the HMI application. Consider updating the application software or increasing watchdog timeout settings if configurable. - Storage Media Error
- Read/write error detected on the internal CompactFlash card or hard disk drive used as the system storage medium.
Run a disk check utility (chkdsk) to identify and repair file system errors. Back up all project data immediately. Replace the CompactFlash card or hard disk if physical media errors are confirmed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the supply voltage for the 6AV7613-0AA10-0CJ0?
The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 6AV7613-0AA10-0CJ0 operates on a 24 V DC supply voltage, which is standard for Siemens industrial panel devices.
What HMI software is compatible with this Panel PC?
This unit is compatible with Siemens WinCC, WinCC flexible, and ProTool HMI software packages. It runs a Windows-based operating system, allowing standard PC-based SCADA and visualization software to be installed.
What is the front panel protection rating of this device?
The front panel of the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is rated IP65, providing protection against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for industrial panel-mount installations.
Can this Panel PC communicate with Siemens S7 PLCs?
Yes, the 6AV7613-0AA10-0CJ0 supports communication with Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 and S7-400 PLCs via Ethernet using the S7 communication protocol, as well as via serial interfaces with appropriate drivers.
What display size and resolution does this unit have?
The unit features a 12-inch TFT color display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels (SVGA).
Troubleshooting
Display remains blank after power on
Check that 24 V DC supply voltage is present at the power input connector. Verify that the power LED or status indicator is active. Measure supply voltage under load to rule out power supply issues.
Ensure the 24 V DC supply is within tolerance. If the supply is correct but the display remains blank, check the internal display cable connections. The backlight inverter or the TFT panel itself may require replacement if no image is produced.
Panel PC fails to boot or hangs at startup screen
Observe the boot sequence for POST error messages or BIOS alerts. Check if the unit boots from the correct storage device (CompactFlash or HDD). Connect an external keyboard and monitor if possible to obtain more diagnostic information.
Re-seat internal memory modules and check the CompactFlash card or hard disk for errors using a disk check utility. If the operating system is corrupted, restore the system image from a backup or reinstall the OS using the Siemens recovery media.
Touchscreen does not respond or is inaccurate
Determine whether the touch input is completely unresponsive or simply misaligned. Check the touchscreen controller driver in Device Manager for errors. Test with an external USB mouse to confirm the OS is running correctly.
Recalibrate the touchscreen using the Windows touchscreen calibration utility. If the touchscreen remains unresponsive, check the internal ribbon cable connection between the touch panel and the mainboard. Replace the touch panel overlay if the hardware is confirmed faulty.
Loss of communication with PLC during operation
Check the Ethernet cable and switch/hub connections. Verify the IP address configuration on both the Panel PC and the PLC. Use the ping command from the Panel PC to test network connectivity to the PLC.
Replace the Ethernet cable if damaged. Reconfigure the IP address settings if there is an address conflict. Restart the HMI runtime application and verify that the communication driver settings in the project match the PLC configuration.
System clock resets to incorrect date and time after power off
This typically indicates that the internal CMOS battery on the mainboard is depleted and no longer retaining BIOS settings.
Replace the internal CMOS coin cell battery (typically CR2032) on the Panel PC mainboard. After replacement, re-enter the correct date, time, and BIOS settings, then save and exit the BIOS configuration.
