At present there is little to configure other than the IP address of the router or the remote panel
module. (You must also specify that the remote panel module supports a CP1602-CQX. See

Using the Remote Panels Page

on page 50.)

Standalone CR6400 Usage

A stand-alone network of CR6400 routers functions well with CP6464 panels. Up to 4 CR6400
routers may be controlled with a single CP6464.

Although you can mix other types of routers and panels with the CR6400 routers, they will prob-
ably not function well. Therefore we do not recommend mixing router types.

Figure A-3 compares a stand-alone router with a captive panel to a stand-alone router network
with remote panel modules:

It is in a CRSC network that you can mix CR6400 routers and other router types without
problems.

The Routers

The routers are slim (35–57mm or 1.38”–2.25”) and mechanically similar, differing principally in
the number and type of connectors. The fronts of all the 1RU routers are the same except for
their legends and the fronts of all the 2RU routers are the same except for their legends.

The 3Gig, HD, SD, AES, and analog video routers have BNC connectors. The analog audio routers
have DB25 connectors (and fans). The machine control routers have RJ-45 connectors.

Figures A-7 through A-19 show front and rear views of the routers.
