About the PCU File

The PCU file contains information on the physical setup of your electronic and master/satellite
pumps. The TopKAT can control a total of eight PCUs (or two four-hose mechanical PCUs).

• When you use electronic pumps (9800 or ASTRA), the electronic pump is the PCU (up to

eight electronic hoses can be controlled by a single TopKAT).

• When you use the mechanical I/F, the TopKAT serves as the PCU controlling one or two

mechanical hoses; a master TopKAT can control up to 7 additional satellite TopKATs.

On a 9800 (viewed from the electronic totalizer switch side), the physical left-hand side of the
pump is side 1 or slot 1; the physical right-hand side of the pump is side 2 or slot 2. On a 9820
ASTRA, since there is only one hose, it is always slot 1. The PCU file options allow you to
change slot assignments to vary which side of the pump activates when a pump number is
selected. There can be four slots per PCU for mechanical PCUs.

Because there are six different TopKAT configurations (refer to

“Introduction”

on

page 1

for a

description of each), the PCU setup differs. Use the applicable PCU Assignments section for
your configuration.
