Functions
9.5 SRAM buffer memory
SIMATIC IPC427C
Operating Instructions, 10/2010, A5E02414743-03

9.5 SRAM buffer memory
For applications to be able to store data following a power failure, the motherboard features
a battery-buffered CMOS-RAM. If the supply voltage fails longer than 5 ms, this is indicated
by the DC FAIL signal.
Enough time is provided for copying data to the buffered RAM that 256 KB can be saved
with a full configuration.
A maximum 2048 Kb memory window is displayed via a PCI address register. The base
address is initialized by the BIOS.
A corresponding function is implemented there for using the CMOS-RAM under WinAC RTX.
NOTICE
If replacement of the battery takes longer than 30 seconds, the data saved in the CMOS
RAM and in the buffered SRAM is lost.
9.6 Battery monitoring
The installed buffer battery has a service life of at least 5 years. The status can be checked
with two-tier battery monitoring. The information can be read from an I/O register and
evaluated.
When the first warning level is reached, the remaining service life of the battery for buffering
CMOS data and buffered SRAM is at least 1 month.
9.7 Operation without monitor and keyboard
The device can be operated without a monitor and keyboard. The device startup is
guaranteed without these peripherals. A USB keyboard and mouse and an analog CRT
monitor can be later connected for diagnostics.
A digital DVI monitor cannot be activated unless the Windows Embedded Standard /
Windows XP Professional / Windows 7 Ultimate operating system has completed its boot
operation.
