Thin Client Unit (TCU)
TCU overview
The Thin Client Unit (TCU) for the distributed configuration permits spatial separation of the
SINUMERIK operator panel front (OP/TP) and the SINUMERIK PCU or NCU. On the
SINUMERIK solution line, the TCU is used to display the user interface of the PCU 50 or the
NCU.
It is possible to connect one TCU to several PCUs/NCUs. All TCUs and PCUs/NCUs that are
connected to each other via a Gigabit switch form the "system network". The user interface of
a PCU/NCU is copied to several OPs with one TCU each. In other words, all of the TCUs
display the same screen. Operator actions can only be performed on one TCU at a time. This
TCU then has user authorization. The PCU can also have its own OP connected directly to
it.
The following diagram shows a configuration example for a distributed topology:

The mobile SINUMERIK HT 8 handheld terminal works on the thin client principle and
combines the functions of an operator panel with a machine control panel.
The configuration and cabling of the whole plant system based on a permissible configuration
is described in the chapter 'Network configurations".
