Overview
The SINUMERIK Thin Client Unit TCU 20.2 for distributed
installation allows operator panel fronts and the
SINUMERIK
PCU or SINUMERIK
NCU to be installed separately.
This is made possible by copying the user interface to to one or
several operator panel fronts, each with a SINUMERIK
TCU 20.2.
■
Benefits
7
Design of flat operator panels through the shallow installation
depth and low power dissipation
7
Low-vibration installation of the SINUMERIK PCU in the control
cabinet
7
Efficient operation of larger machines using up to 5 uniform
operator panels simultaneously – of which 4 are Thin Clients
7
Effective operation of interlinked machines – more than
4 Thin Client operator panels can be connected thanks to
suppression mechanism
■
Design
The SINUMERIK TCU 20.2 is connected to the
SINUMERIK PCU/NCU via Industrial Ethernet as Thin Client in its
own subnet via DHCP server.
Graphics:
Resolution 640 × 480 to 1024 × 768 pixels, 16-bit color depth
Ports:
•
3 × USB 2.0 for connection of mouse, keyboard and
USB flash drive
•
Industrial Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbit/s
■
Function
•
Signal transmission between SINUMERIK PCU/NCU and
operator panel front via Industrial Ethernet
•
Easy installation and service-friendly layout thanks to the
component structure
•
Functionality of the SINUMERIK PCU as in centralized config-
uration, e.g. number of PCI slots. The same operating screen
is shown synchronously on all operator panel fronts and can
be used from all operator panel fronts. Operator inputs on a
Thin Client have equal priority with operator inputs on an
operator panel directly connected to the SINUMERIK PCU.
The operator panel in passive mode shows a darkened
screen.
■
Function
(continued)
•
Operation is possible on the active operator panel. An
enabling function permits a passive operator panel to request
operation.
•
The combined operation of operator panel fronts on a
SINUMERIK TCU or with an integral TCU and an operator
panel front directly connected to the SINUMERIK PCU is
possible.
•
The distance to the operator panel fronts is determined by the
maximum distance between two network nodes/access points
(100 m/328 ft).
■
Integration
The SINUMERIK TCU 20.2 can be used for:
•
SINUMERIK 840D sl:
Operator panel fronts
OP 010/OP 010C/OP 010S/OP 012/OP 015A connected to
NCU 710.3B PN/NCU 720.3B PN/NCU 730.3B PN
