Description
Additional information

The Siemens 6AV7613-0AA22-0AF0 is a Panel PC belonging to the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 series, manufactured by Siemens. It is an industrial panel computer designed for demanding human-machine interface (HMI) and visualization tasks in automation environments. This unit integrates a flat-panel display with a full PC architecture, providing both operator interface and computing functionality in a single compact device.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 6AV7613-0AA22-0AF0 features a 12-inch TFT display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels (SVGA) and supports touch screen operation. It is equipped with an Intel Celeron processor and runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems, supporting SIMATIC WinCC and other Siemens HMI software packages. The unit provides standard PC interfaces including USB, serial (RS-232), and Ethernet ports for connectivity to PLCs and higher-level systems, and is built with an IP65-rated front panel for protection against dust and water ingress.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is widely used in manufacturing, process automation, and machine tool industries where a robust, integrated PC-based HMI solution is required. Its fanless or low-maintenance design options make it suitable for continuous operation in industrial environments with vibration, temperature variation, and contamination. It is commonly deployed as a visualization and control station on production lines, packaging machinery, and process control panels.

Common Error Codes & System Events

Event ID: 100: System startup error — the Panel PC failed to complete the boot sequence correctly, possibly due to a corrupted operating system or failed hardware component.
Check the boot device and operating system integrity. Re-image the CompactFlash card or hard disk if necessary. Verify all internal connections.
Event ID: 101: Watchdog timeout — the application software did not respond within the watchdog monitoring period, triggering a system reset.
Check the WinCC or HMI application for software hangs or infinite loops. Increase watchdog timeout if appropriate, or investigate application stability.
Event ID: 200: Communication error to PLC — the Panel PC lost communication with the connected Siemens PLC over the configured interface.
Check Ethernet or MPI/PROFIBUS cable connections. Verify network settings and PLC address configuration in WinCC or the HMI project.
Event ID: 201: Tag read/write error — a configured process tag could not be read from or written to the connected controller.
Verify the tag address and data type in the HMI project. Check PLC program to ensure the corresponding data block or address is available and accessible.
Event ID: 300: Touchscreen calibration error — the touch input is misaligned or unresponsive, indicating a calibration or hardware fault.
Recalibrate the touch screen using the Windows control panel or SIMATIC touchscreen calibration utility. If unresponsive, inspect the touch controller connection or replace the touch overlay.
Event ID: 400: Storage device error — the CompactFlash card or hard disk is not detected or has reported read/write errors.
Check the storage device seating and connections. Replace the CompactFlash card or hard disk if errors persist. Restore the system image from backup.
Event ID: 500: Power supply undervoltage — the 24 V DC supply voltage has dropped below the minimum operating threshold.
Measure the supply voltage at the power input connector. Ensure the power supply unit provides a stable 24 V DC within the specified tolerance. Check wiring and connectors for voltage drop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the supply voltage for the 6AV7613-0AA22-0AF0?

The unit operates on a 24 V DC supply voltage. Ensure the power source is stable and within the specified tolerance range.

What HMI software is compatible with this Panel PC?

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is compatible with Siemens SIMATIC WinCC, WinCC flexible, and other PC-based SCADA and visualization software packages that run on Windows XP or Windows 2000.

What is the display size and resolution of this unit?

The 6AV7613-0AA22-0AF0 features a 12-inch TFT color display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels (SVGA).

What is the front panel protection rating?

The front panel of the SIMATIC Panel PC 670 carries an IP65 protection rating, making it resistant to dust and water jets.

Can the storage media be replaced or upgraded?

Yes, the Panel PC 670 uses a CompactFlash card or hard disk as its storage medium, which can be replaced or re-imaged. Siemens recommends using approved industrial-grade storage media for reliability.

Troubleshooting

Panel PC does not power on after 24 V DC is applied

Measure the 24 V DC supply voltage at the power input connector with a multimeter. Check for blown internal fuses and inspect the power supply wiring for loose connections or incorrect polarity.

Correct any wiring faults and ensure the supply voltage is within the specified range. Replace any blown fuses with the correct rating. If the unit still does not power on, the internal power supply board may require replacement.

Display is blank or backlight does not illuminate

Verify that the unit is powered and the operating system has booted by checking for hard disk activity. Check the display brightness settings in Windows. Inspect the backlight inverter and display cable connections internally.

Adjust display brightness settings if accessible. If the backlight has failed, replace the CCFL backlight or the complete display assembly. Ensure all internal display cable connections are secure.

Touch screen is unresponsive or inaccurate

Attempt to operate the unit using a USB mouse to determine if the issue is isolated to the touch screen. Check Device Manager in Windows for touch controller errors or missing drivers.

Recalibrate the touch screen using the SIMATIC calibration utility or Windows Pointer Device settings. If the touch screen remains unresponsive, inspect the touch controller board connection or replace the touch overlay assembly.

Unit fails to boot and displays a blue screen or stops at POST

Check whether the CompactFlash card or hard disk is detected in the BIOS. Listen for unusual sounds from the hard disk. Attempt to boot from an external USB device to isolate the storage device as the fault source.

Replace or re-image the CompactFlash card or hard disk with a valid system image. If the fault persists after storage replacement, inspect RAM modules and reseat them. A failed processor or motherboard may require board-level repair.

Loss of communication with PLC or network devices

Check the Ethernet cable and RJ45 connector for physical damage. Verify the IP address configuration in Windows and confirm the PLC address settings in the HMI project match the physical setup.

Replace damaged cables or connectors. Reconfigure network settings to match the plant network. If using MPI or PROFIBUS, verify the communication card is correctly seated and the bus termination is properly set.
