Creating a system image
After you have configured the SIMATIC Embedded Bundle for your application, you can
create an image of your system. You can use this image later to restore your custom
application to your system, if necessary.
Create the system image (custom restore DVD) after you have performed any customization
tasks required by your application, such as those listed below:
● Download of a STEP 7 user program and configuration of WinAC RTX
● Transfer of a WinCC flexible project
● Configuration of WinAC Data Storage (SIMATIC IPC427C-RTX/ -HMI/RTX or
● Modification of the initial configuration from the Station Configuration Editor
● Installation of any custom software or data files
Use the Image Creator to make your system image. The Image Creator is part of the tool
"SIMATIC PC/PG Image and Partition Creator" available from Siemens. You can find
ordering information for the Image Creator in the A&D Mall.
(http://mall.automation.siemens.com/) Refer to the Image Creator instructions for additional
help on making and restoring system images.
