Figure 2−73. CP 3832.
The CP 3832 is a multiple−level* breakaway* panel which is capable of locking,* and protecting* outputs. The panel features
eight−character display capability and relegendable, lighted push buttons.
The panel can be configured as a 32 x 1 single bus panel (Figure 2−74), as a 16 x 16 “balanced split” panel (Figure 2−75),
or as some variation of an “unbalanced split” panel (Figure 2−76).
The panel can also be configured as a type “CP 3832L,” in which the right−hand group of six buttons are used for level selec-
tion and the panel operates in “sticky levels”* mode. In this case, the “Level” button shown in Figure 2−73 is used to access
the first level in the panel’s Level Set (typically video), the “Menu” button is used for the second level (e.g., left audio), etc.
Both the CP 3832 and the CP 3832L can be configured as a 32 x 1 single bus panel (Figure 2−74), as a 16 x 16 “balanced
split” panel (Figure 2−75), or as some variation of an “unbalanced split” panel (Figure 2−76).

Unbalanced split panels can be configured to control from 1 to 15 outputs, with keys not used for outputs available to control
inputs. For example, if 10 buttons are assigned to outputs then 22 buttons are available for inputs.
Control of additional inputs/outputs is possible using adjacent CP 3832 or CP 3864 expansion panels (page 2−67); the CP
3832 can be also be operated in connection with an adjacent CP 3810 Expansion Panel (see page 2−68).
Note: The CP 3832/3864 cannot be used with an expansion panel if the panel is configured 1) in an unbalanced
split configuration, or 2) in full−time Preview mode (that is, as a “CP 3832P” or “CP 3864P,”or 3) as a CP 3832L.
