Features
The CCP-1601 Cortex control panel is a 1U rack mount panel with 16 LCD buttons and one rotary encoder.
The panel provides a hardware panel control surface for a Cortex control system. The panel is configured in the same way as the software panels in the Cortex system using the Cortex Form Designer application. All devices connected to the Cortex server can be controlled or viewed from this physical surface. Due to the flexibility of the LCD button displays the panel can be configured to work with a limitless number of ‘pages’ which can be linked together to form a logical, quick and user friendly interface.
The unit is powered with an external AC-DC brick PSU unit. The rear of the unit has two lockable DC power inlets allowing for an optional redundant PSU in critical applications. The unit has an earth or grounding stud by the side of the DC inlets.
The unit uses its inbuilt 100Base-T Ethernet connector to connect to the Cortex server over either a local or wide area network. The unit can be configured to use either DHCP or manually assigned IP addresses. As with other Axon devices when used in manual IP assignment mode the address, sub-net mask and gateway can be assigned using the configuration mode of the panel.
