Description
Additional information

The Siemens 6AV7613-0AE22-0AJ0 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 high-performance computing platform with an integrated flat-panel display, providing a compact all-in-one solution for process visualization and control.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 (6AV7613-0AE22-0AJ0) features a 12.1-inch TFT display with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels (SVGA) and supports 65,536 colors. It is equipped with an Intel Celeron processor and runs on Microsoft Windows XP or Windows 2000, supporting standard PC interfaces including USB, Ethernet (RJ45), and serial COM ports. The unit is built with a fanless or low-noise design option and features a front panel with IP65 protection rating, making it suitable for use in environments where dust and water ingress are concerns. It supports PROFIBUS and MPI communication via optional expansion cards.

The SIMATIC Panel PC 670 is widely used in the automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing industries. It is particularly suited for SCADA applications, machine control panels, and process visualization stations where a robust, industrially hardened PC platform is required. Its compatibility with standard Siemens WinCC and STEP 7 software makes it a natural fit for integration into existing Siemens automation architectures.

Common Error Codes & System Events

Event ID: 100: System startup failure — the operating system failed to initialize correctly during boot.
Check hard disk integrity and connections. Verify OS installation. Restore system image if necessary.
Event ID: 1000: Application error — a software application has crashed or terminated unexpectedly.
Restart the application. Check Windows Event Viewer for details. Reinstall the HMI software (e.g., WinCC) if the issue persists.
Event ID: 7034: Service terminated unexpectedly — a Windows service required for HMI operation stopped without warning.
Restart the affected service via Windows Services Manager. Check for software conflicts or corrupted service files.
WinCC Runtime Error: WinCC Runtime has encountered a configuration or communication error and cannot start.
Verify WinCC project configuration. Check communication settings and PLC connection parameters. Restart WinCC Runtime.
PROFIBUS Communication Error: Loss of communication with PROFIBUS DP master or slave devices.
Check PROFIBUS cable connections and termination resistors. Verify station addresses and baud rate settings. Inspect the PROFIBUS interface card.
Watchdog Timeout: The system watchdog has detected that the CPU or application has stopped responding within the defined time window.
Perform a controlled system restart. Investigate CPU load and running processes. Check for hardware faults or memory issues.
Hard Disk SMART Error: The integrated hard disk drive has reported a SMART diagnostic warning indicating potential failure.
Back up all data immediately. Replace the hard disk drive with an approved industrial-grade replacement. Restore the system image.
Temperature Warning: Internal system temperature has exceeded the defined threshold, risking thermal shutdown.
Check ambient temperature and ensure adequate ventilation around the panel. Clean air filters if present. Verify fan operation where applicable.

Troubleshooting

Panel PC does not boot and display remains blank after power on

Check the 24 V DC supply voltage at the power input connector. Verify that the supply is within tolerance. Inspect the internal fuse and check whether the power LED is illuminated.

Restore correct 24 V DC supply. Replace the internal fuse if blown. If the power supply module is faulty, replace it. If the display backlight has failed, replace the backlight inverter or display assembly.

Touchscreen does not respond or registers incorrect touch positions

Check whether the touchscreen is physically damaged or contaminated. Access the touchscreen calibration utility within Windows Control Panel to verify calibration settings.

Clean the touchscreen surface with a soft, dry cloth. Recalibrate the touchscreen using the Siemens or Windows calibration tool. If the touchscreen controller is faulty, replace the touchscreen assembly.

WinCC Runtime fails to start or displays communication errors with the PLC

Verify the Ethernet or PROFIBUS cable connections between the Panel PC and the PLC. Check the WinCC project configuration for correct IP addresses, station numbers, and communication driver settings.

Correct any misconfigured communication parameters in the WinCC project. Ensure the PLC is powered and online. Replace faulty cables or connectors. Reinstall WinCC Runtime if software corruption is suspected.

System runs slowly or freezes during operation

Check CPU and memory utilization via Windows Task Manager. Inspect the hard disk for errors using Windows disk check utilities. Verify that the operating temperature is within the specified range.

Close unnecessary background applications. Run a disk check and defragmentation. If the hard disk is failing (indicated by SMART errors), replace it with an industrial-grade drive and restore the system image.

Panel PC loses date and time settings after power off

The real-time clock (RTC) battery on the motherboard is likely discharged or faulty. This is a common issue on older units.

Replace the CMOS/RTC battery on the motherboard with the correct replacement type (typically CR2032). Reset the date and time in the BIOS after replacement.
