How do you display the WinCC Web Navigator Client on an MOBIC T8 (order number: 6GK1611-OTA00-xxxx)?
Instructions: The WinCC Web Navigator Client can be
visualized on a MOBIC T8 if you are using the terminal services of
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server or Microsoft Windows 2003 Server.
Set up a Microsoft Terminal Client on the MOBIC T8 and install
the WinCC Web Navigator Client software on the computer with the
Microsoft Terminal Server. As from WinCC/Web Navigator V6.1, if
this computer is not also your WinCC/Web Navigator Server, you must
also install WinCC.
The Microsoft Terminal Server does not have to be installed on
the WinCC Web Navigator Server computer. You can also use a
separate computer for this.
Now it is possible to log in on the Microsoft Terminal Server
from the MOBIC T8 (via Microsoft Terminal Client software).
After logging in you can open the Microsoft Internet Explorer
in the Microsoft Terminal Client window on the MOBIC T8 and start
the WinCC Web Navigator Client.
The Microsoft Terminal Client receives only the picture data
from the Microsoft Terminal Server.
All actions such as opening the Microsoft Internet Explorer or
installing software etc. are executed only on the Microsoft
Terminal Server.
Quantity framework:
You can connect up to 25 Microsoft Terminal Clients to the
Microsoft Terminal Server.
A detailed description about using and installing the terminal
services is available in the documentation of the WinCC Web
Navigator under the keyword "Using the terminal services for WinCC
Web Navigator". The WinCC/Web Navigator documentation is available
on your WinCC/Web Navigator CD.
Requirements for using the terminal services:
Terminal Server
Software:
Windows 2000 Server SP3 / SP4 or Windows 2003 Server
Applications that are to be executed on the clients must be
able to be called and executed multiple times.
Minimum hardware
requirements:
Pentium III; 800MHz
512MB RAM plus additional RAM for each client
Processor and memory requirements increase linearly, i.e. if
double the number of clients is used, then the processor must be
doubled (max. 4) as well as the memory (approx. 40MB per
client).
Miscellaneous:
If many users want to access the server, then a
high-performance network card should be used.
ISA bus system should not be used, but EISE or
PCI.
