Overview of SITOP UPS

SITOP UPS modules can continue operation of the SIEMENS PC system temporarily if a power
failure occurs and/or shut down the system correctly.
For example, a SITOP UPS module also protects against data loss when the SIEMENS PC
system hardware is shut down, because for technical reasons with Windows-based systems,
data is still written to the SSD after shutdown.
● You will find general information about SITOP UPS modules used in combination with the
PCU base software in Chapter SITOP modules for the PCU 50.5 (Page 53).
● If you want to use a SITOP UPS module in combination with the PCU base software, you
must first adapt the settings of the SITOP software (Page 54).
● Optionally, you can adapt the delay time after which the HMI software will be forced to shut
down (Page 57).
● You must configure the hardware (Page 60) of the SITOP UPS module before using it with
the PCU base software.
