Overview 1
1.1 Product description
SIMATIC ITC - the high-performance local thin client solution
Industrial Thin Clients are low-cost HMI terminals that provide local HMI functionality in
plants spread over large areas. In this way, Industrial Thin Clients contribute to an improved
overview, operability, and productivity of plants. In addition, the Industrial Thin Clients also
reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) by virtue of their extremely easy commissioning,
efficient Ethernet networking, reduced software costs, and minimal service costs.
The Industrial Thin Client always communicates with a host, such as an HMI device,
industrial PC, or server, via the following connection types:
● Web browser functionality
● SIMATIC WinCC Sm@rtServer
● Standard RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) from Microsoft
● VNC (Virtual Network Computing)
● SINUMERIK connection
The Industrial Thin Client itself requires no installation and no licenses to operate. For
remote configuration, we offer the Management Software Remote Configuration Center at
(as of RCC V2.0). You can also bridge greater distances via Ethernet.
You can do the following from the Industrial Thin Client:
● Display and run web-based content from a web server available on the network (e.g., S7
controller, Intranet/Internet) via the integrated web browser.
● Run WinCC projects on other HMI devices or industrial PCs via Sm@rtServer.
● Run HMI applications (e.g., WinCC), Office applications (e.g., Excel), or SAP directly at
the machine via RDP.
● Operate a PC remotely with VNC (similar to RDP)
● Use the SINUMERIK connection to make the Industrial Thin Client a SINUMERIK Thin
Client Unit (TCU).
Hardware equipment
The device is available with 12", 15", 19", or 22" LCD TFT widescreen display with 16 million
colors. You operate the device via the touch screen or a keyboard/mouse connected to the
two USB ports.
In terms of the mounting cutout (width and height) and design, the Industrial Thin Client built-
in units are compatible with the SIMATIC HMI Comfort Panels of the same size.

10 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E03474888-02
Easy commissioning
The Industrial Thin Client merely requires an IP address. For fast on-site commissioning and
diagnostics, the SIMATIC ITC is equipped with a Setup Wizard optimized for touch operation.
Alternatively, the Remote Configuration Center (RCC V2.0 or higher) management software
enables easy, efficient remote configuration and diagnostics of one or more devices. Local
software installation on the device is not necessary. The display and user interface of the
application are provided by the host.
High robustness
As a remote operator terminal without any rotating media (hard drive or fan), you can
operate the Industrial Thin Client on machines having stringent requirements for mechanical
robustness.

1.5 Typical applications
Industrial Thin Clients can be used as operator terminals in different scenarios. With the
Industrial Thin Client, for example, you can access an HMI device and hence control a work
process. You can also use the Industrial Thin Client to run Office applications on a server, for
example, on a PC and modern web applications.
Typical applications are presented in the following.
Access to a Sm@rtServer
The Industrial Thin Client accesses an HMI device or industrial PC as a Sm@rtServer client
using the SIMATIC WinCC Sm@rtServer option. You are operating and monitoring a WinCC
project (TIA portal). You operate and monitor a WinCC flexible project with the SIMATIC
WinCC Sm@rtAccess option in the same way.
The following figure shows one possible configuration.

For the safe operation of a plant/machine, however, it is also necessary to integrate the
automation components into an overall IT security concept for the entire plant/machine,
which corresponds to the state-of-the-art IT technology. You can find information on this
under: Industrial Security (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Products used from other manufacturers should also be taken into account here.
Remote maintenance is not recommended for production and should be disabled before
production is started.
The remote maintenance settings are disabled by default. If you enable them for
maintenance purposes, disable the remote maintenance settings once again for production
in the start menu "Configuration > System", "Remote maintenance" (see configuration
settings, section "System settings").
If you use Remote configuration in production, we recommend using your own, private key
for security reasons (see section "Remote configuration of several devices", "Key
assignment").
If you are using a private key, the remote configuration service is only guaranteed from a PC
with installed private key file. Assign a password for logging on to the PC.
The Remote configuration service (SSH) is enabled by default. If you do not need remote
configuration, disable remote configuration in the system settings of the device during
production (see section "Remote configuration of several devices", "Securing remote
configuration").

● Position the HMI device such that it is ergonomically accessible for the operator.
Choose a suitable mounting height.
● Ensure that the air vents of the HMI device are not covered as a result of the mounting.
● Note the permissible mounting positions.
3.2.1 Checking the package contents
Check the package content for visible signs of transport damage and for completeness.
Note
If a part is damaged
A damaged part will cause the HMI device to malfunction.
Do not install parts damaged during shipment. In the case of damaged parts, contact your
Siemens representative.
The following is included in the scope of delivery of the device:
● The device itself
● Accessory kit with mounting clamps and mains terminal
● CD with RCC remote configuration software and the source codes for the open source
software
● Additional documents as required
The documentation belongs to the device and is required for subsequent commissioning.
Retain all enclosed documentation for the entire service life of the HMI device. You must
pass on the enclosed documentation to any subsequent owner or user of the HMI device.
Make sure that every supplement to the documentation that you receive is stored together
with the operating instructions.
