Operating a control panel is usually quite simple. The basic operations are the same for all
panels except the CP3201 and CP6401. The CP3201 and CP6401 are slightly different because
they are single-destination panels having “default” destinations. Additionally, the CQX (“clean
and quiet”) panel features unique buttons for smooth transitions.
Two of the three panels that can control the 64×64 matrices of CR6400 routers (the CP32-6464
and CP6464) are different from others because they can have “paging” buttons.
The CP6401 and CP32-6464 are names given to configuration variants of the CP6464 and
CP3232, respectively. There are no physical panels having those names.
For detailed information on operating CR Series panels, refer to the CR Series Compact Router
User’s Guide and the CR6400 Family Users’ Guide.
For a complete list of panels supported by the Compact Router System Configurator (CRSC), see
Products on page 121.
This section briefly describes how to use the control panel to perform the following tasks:
• Perform ‘takes’ (normal and breakaway). See Performing Takes on page 147.
• Lock or unlock destination or control panels. See Performing Locks on page 156.
• Execute salvos. See Executing Salvos on page 157.
• Select levels. See Performing Level Selection on page 158.
Although operations are usually straightforward, the meaning of the operations differ according
to panel mode. See
Remote Panel Operating Modes on page 112.
Before configuring or using a panel, it is recommended that you become familiar with how
control panel buttons are grouped and what different button illuminations denote, as described
in
Control Panel Buttons on page 142.
