CQX Panels
The ‘Remote Panels’ page supports remote panel modules to which a CP1602-CQX is attached.
Because the CP1602-CQX is unique, the support for it is unique (but limited).
If you have a CP1602-CQX mounted on an RP16, you can select “CP1602-CQX” in the ‘Panel Type’
drop-down list. The page will display an image of the CP1602-CQX as the panel graphic:
However, the configuration of the CP1602-CQX is fixed. You cannot edit the configuration,
except that you can change the button mnemonics in the configuration page. Nor can you
change the panel mode.
Nevertheless, you must click ‘Update Panel’ if you want to assign an CP1602-CQX configuration
to the remote panel module. (Or click ‘Save to File . . .‘ to save the configuration for later use.)
Assigning the CP1602-CQX configuration to the remote panel module allows operators to use
the CP1602-CQX (which controls transition rate and transition types) remotely.
Defining Button Functions
After you have selected a remote panel module and assigned it a panel type, the remaining task
is to configure the panel. This takes a certain amount of planning — away from CRSC — to know
what you want your panel to do.
There are two steps:
•
Select a panel mode: (1) standard, (2) enhanced with hold, or (3) enhanced without hold. The
button functions differ subtly depending on the mode. See
•
Define one or more button functions.
Any button on any remote panel can be configured to perform one of several functions.
Most panel types support these 4 functions:
•
•
•
•
Some panels also provide one or more “paging” button types such as a ‘Toggle Pages’ but-
ton. These are the panels that are designed to control networks that include CR6400 routers,
namely the CP32-6464 and CP6464. See
Buttons that you do not define are called “unused” in the drop-down list for button types
and remain unlit (dark) when the panel is in use.
The buttons in the graphic image of the configuration page correspond in number and posi-
tion to the buttons of the actual control panel. (The single-destination panels — the CP3201
