Preface
Basic knowledge required
Scope of the operating instructions
Scope of this documentation
These operating instructions contain all the information you need for commissioning and
operation of the SIMATIC Industrial Flat Panel IFP.
It is intended both for programming and testing personnel who commission the device and
connect it with other units (automation systems, programming devices), as well as for service
and maintenance personnel who install add-ons or carry out fault/error analyses.
A solid background in personal computers and Microsoft operating systems is required to
understand this manual. General knowledge in the field automation control engineering is
recommended.
These operating instructions apply to the following Industrial Flat Panels with the order
numbers 6AV7863-.....-....:
● SIMATIC IFP1500, IFP1900, IFP2200
● SIMATIC IFP1900 ETH, IFP2200 ETH
● SIMATIC IFP1900 PRO, IFP2200 PRO
The SIMATIC Industrial Flat Panel is supplied with the following documents:
● In printed form: Quick Install Guide for the device, Installation and Commissioning
Instructions
● Electronically as PDF file on the "Documentation and Drivers" CD/DVD:
In these operating instructions, the SIMATIC IFP is also referred to as "Flat Panel" or
"device".
The devices SIMATIC IFP1900 ETH and IFP2200 ETH are also referred to as
"Ethernet Monitor" and "ETH version".
A touch device generally refers to a device with a touch screen, as opposed to a pure
"display device". Touch screen is the general term for a capacitive multi-touch screen and
resistive single touch screen.
The devices IFP1500, IFP1900, IFP2200, IFP1900 ETH and IFP2200 ETH are referred to as
"built-in units".
The devices IFP1900 PRO and PRO IFP2200 are referred to as "PRO devices".
At some places in these operating instructions, the general term "Windows Embedded
Standard" is used to refer to "Windows Embedded Standard 2009" and "Windows
Embedded Standard 7". "Windows 7" is used as an abbreviation for "Windows 7 Ultimate".
This manual contains figures of the described devices. The supplied device may differ in
some details from the figures. Within some of the figures, one device is used to represent all
Industrial Flat Panels.
The following earlier release versions of these operating instructions have been published:

PRO devices of the type "suitable for support arm" or "suitable for pedestal" can be mounted
on the support arm or pedestal using the base adapter. A base adapter is included with the
corresponding PRO devices. The base adapter can also be ordered separately.
The following mechanical adapter versions are also available for mounting a PRO device of
the types "suitable for support arm" and "suitable for pedestal" via the base adapter:
● A Siemens VESA adapter set for VESA compatible systems
● Manufacturer-specific adapter or couplings

Hazardous areas
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Risque d'Explosion
The Machinery Directive specifies precautions to be taken when commissioning and
operating machinery within the European Economic Area.
Failure to follow these precautions is a breach of the Machinery Directive. Such failure may
also cause personal injury and damage depending on the machine operated.
The machine in which the HMI device is to be operated must conform to Directive
2006/42/EC.
When operating the HMI device in hazardous areas the following warning applies.
Do not disconnect while circuit is live unless area is known to be non-hazardous.
Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class I, Division 2 or Zone 2.
Ne pas déconnecter pendant que le circuit est sous tension, sauf si la zone est nondangereuse. Le remplacement de composants peut compromettre leur capacité à satisfaire
à la Classe I, Division 2 ou Zone 2.
Life-threatening voltages are present with an open control cabinet
2.1 General safety instructions
The device has increased immunity to RF radiation according to the specifications on
electromagnetic compatibility in the technical specifications.
Radiation exposure in excess of the specified immunity limits can impair device functions,
result in malfunctions and therefore injuries or damages.
Read the information on immunity to RF radiation in the technical specifications.
The device constitutes open equipment. This means that the device may only be installed
in enclosures or cabinets which provide front access for operating the device.
When you open the control cabinet, some areas or components may be conducting
life-threatening voltages.
Contact with these areas or components may result in death by electric shock.
Switch off the power supply to the cabinet before opening it.
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.
Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines
and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the
enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security
measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial security, please visit
