After initial commissioning and after system restore
After the initial commissioning of the device or after installation of the Restore DVD, note the following:
● The firewall is deactivated.
All settings required for PCS 7 are already in place when you enable the firewall.
● The device is in a workgroup and may need to be entered in a domain. You can find information on this in
section:Entering a SIMATIC Industrial PC in a domain (Page 22)
● The name assigned to the computer during initial commissioning may not be changed later.
● Check the settings for the time and time zone. If necessary, change these settings to values applicable for you.
● Under Windows 10, a local group policy is set up during startup which locks an unwanted, automatic update of the Intel
Onboard Graphics driver.
To update the driver when needed, you must set it to "Not configured" (at least temporarily).
– Open the Group Policy editor.
– Navigate to the group policy "Guidelines for local computer->Computer configuration->Administrative templates -
>System->Device installation->Restrictions with the device installation->Prevent the installation of devices with these
device IDs"
– Make a note of the entered device ID so that you can reactivate the lock after the driver has been upgraded.
– Set the group policy to "Not configured" and restart your system.
– After restarting, you can install the new graphics driver.
– Finally, reactivate the previously disabled lock.
