3 Product Description
3.1 Overview
Pepperl+Fuchs VisuNet Computing Units TCU1100-*/TCU1200-* and PCU1100-*/PCU1200-*
are ATEX/IECEx certified, UL listed devices intended for use in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres, such as Zones 1/21 and 2/22 and Class I/II, Div. 2 and Class III.
Connected to Pepperl+Fuchs display units, the TCU and PCU devices serve as thin-client- or
PC-based computing units. The TCU devices run VisuNet RM Shell firmware and allow users
to easily connect to a host system via Ethernet. The PCU devices run a pre-installed Win-
dows®operating system and allow users to install individual software packages such as
SCADA applications to visualize and control their automation application.
Two USB Ex i interfaces support the connection of intrinsically safe accessories that match with
the provided entity parameters, such as Pepperl+Fuchs' EXTA2 keyboard and mouse system.
The USB Ex-e interface can be used to connect other third-party devices that comply with the
installation requirements.
For extended distances, the computing units are available with an optional multi-mode fiber-
optic interface.
VisuNet computing units are optimized for use with the modular Pepperl+Fuchs HMI compo-
nents Display Unit (DPU1100-*/DPU1200-*) and Power Supply unit (PSU1100-*/PSU1200-*)
of the VisuNet GXP product line.

Cable Gland Connection Layout
The cable glands have different inlays in different sizes. Therefor, it is important to use the cor-
rect installation cables with the corresponding cable gland. Do not use the cable glands for any
other cable than stated below. Do not interchange the cables.
