Product Brief January 2004

Field PG and Power PG

Common features

For over 20 years, "Unpack, plug-in

and go" has been a well-proven concept for SIMATIC programming
devices on the market for automation technology. The success of the
SIMATIC PGs lies on the one hand
that the devices with integrated
interfaces and programming software are fully equipped for programming the SIMATIC components. On the other hand, the
SIMATIC PGs with a Windows operating system and their high-performance PC hardware provide a platform for various applications beyond
the boundaries of SIMATIC.
Ongoing innovation of the programming devices in the direction of
modern PC technology always safeguards continuity, i.e. older SIMATIC
target systems will still be supported. The latest generation of SIMATIC
programming devices comprises the
Field PG in Notebook form and the
Power PG as a programming workstation.
Common features
Industrial compatibility
The two new SIMATIC programming
devices are designed for harsh everyday industrial use. The shock resistant and torsionally rigid die-cast
magnesium housing makes a significant contribution to this.
Large-area shock absorbers provide
combined corner and edge protection and prevent, at the same time,
thanks to their damping characteristics the potentially damaging effects
of vibrations and shocks on the electronic components. A fold-away, ergonomically shaped handle ensures
easy and secure transport.

The sum total of all these constructional measures increases the availability of the device, resulting in a
cost saving (reduction in the total
cost of ownership).
Integrated interfaces
Interfaces required for programming the SIMATIC controllers over
TTY, MPI, PROFIBUS or Industrial Ethernet have been integrated. The Ethernet interface can also be used to
connect to corporate networks
(LANs).
The interfaces for the memory cards
of SIMATIC S7 and S5 as well as for
the new micro memory cards are
also integrated. S5 EPROM modules
can be programmed using an adapter for the memory card interface.
Two PC card interfaces and two USB
interfaces are available for connecting modern peripheral devices such
as modems, scanners and cameras
but also for a printer, keyboard or
mouse or an external monitor. To
protect against damage and fouling,
all interfaces can be protected with
slides or flaps.

with a touchpad and support for the ball
of the thumb

Archiving of large
quantities of data
With the configurator option
"SIMATIC PC/PG Image & Partition
Creator" and the combination drive
(DVD-ROM/CD-RW) or the DVD burner (DVD-R/-RW), fast, easy and convenient data archiving even of the
complete hard disk is possible.
Erasable CDs or DVDs can also be
used.

Ergonomics
Comfortable and amenable to working over long periods without causing tiredness is assisted by:
The ergonomic keyboard with
rugged pushbutton mechanisms
and laser inscription that cannot
be rubbed off
The touchpad insensitive to dirt
with a high degree of positioning
accuracy as well as
Supports at the side for the ball of
the thumb.

and damage by rugged covers.

Battery-powered Field PG

The new mobile, industry-compatible SIMATIC Field PG in Notebook

form is designed for use principally
during commissioning, service and
maintenance of automation systems.
In addition, it can of course be used
for setting parameters and programming. Thanks to its compact dimensions and low weight of less than 4
kg, it is ideally suited to use in confined spaces at the machine, in aircraft or on-board trains.
Despite its compactness, the Field
PG is ergonomic with its 14.1" TFT
display with a resolution of 1024 x
768 pixels. For a supplementary
price, a high-resolution display variant with 1400 x 1050 pixels
(SXGA+) can also be ordered.

A high-performance Li ion battery

supports operation for several hours
without connection to the supply
system which provides a high degree of mobility.
The rechargeable battery and the
main memory can be easily reached
behind separate covers in the floor
of the housing and can be easily
replaced or upgraded.
A so-called interface box is also
available that operates as an interface multiplier and that can be connected to the Field PG equipped with
a Pentium 4.
It enables automation components
to be connected over three interfaces:
S5 online (TTY)
Serial (V.24)
Parallel (LPT)

Field PG, view from below: The battery

and main memory are directly accessed
through covers in the base of the housing.

The interface box is necessary for

programming SIMATIC S5 and nonSiemens systems but not for
SIMATIC S7.

Power PG with swivel display and detachable keyboard

The SIMATIC Power PG is a flexible

programming workstation with Pentium 4 technology as well as highspeed DDR-RAM modules.
In addition to the PC card slots, in
the Power PG, the PCI slots can also
be used for two PCI modules for flexible expansion possibilities.
The Power PG is used principally for
parameter setting and programming as well as for simulation and
testing. An integrated wide-rangeinput power supply supports worldwide use.

The power supply for the keyboard

can be provided by a normal or rechargeable battery, but if necessary
it can be maintained from the Power
PG over a special cable.

The full PC keyboard with numeric

pad does not have a cable and can
therefore be placed anywhere on
the desk and positioned at an angle
of up to 15 using fold-out feet.

The Power PG impresses users, in

particular, with its high-performance 15" display that can be rotated by 45 with a resolution of up to
1024 x 768 pixels which offers maximum 2D/3D graphics performance.
For an additional price, a display
variant with 1400 x 1050 pixels
(SXGA+) can be supplied.

The Power PG can be upgraded

quickly and easily in the future.
After removing the rear panel, expansion modules can be inserted
and the processor, RAM and hard
disk can be easily replaced.
