Chapter 1 - Introduction
Description
The CCXR-17 is a military grade high performance 1U clamshell LCD keyboard drawer offering 17-inch TFT
LCD displays and sealed NEMA-4 keyboards. Unique is the side orientation allowing use in extremely tight
quarters. The display can be pulled out as little as 20-inches allowing full unrestricted use in a corridor or
passage that narrow such as found in an equipment or radio van mounted on a Humvee. There is no other
display with keyboard offering that compact footprint.
The CCX family is designed to meet Mil-Std 901D and 810F and includes a solid milled aluminum front panel,
lightweight 5052-H32 aluminum construction and locking stainless hardware throughout. The drawer is held
closed by two captive thumb screws. Friction slides are included standard. Friction slides assure the drawer
stays where you put it and doesn’t randomly slide in and out of the rack in the back of a moving vehicle. The
CCXR-17 is ideal for mounting in a transit case or moving vehicle for adverse environments that would destroy
lesser displays.
The 17-inch display offers 1280 x 1024 native resolution, 380nit brightness, 1000:1 native contrast, and 80
degree viewing angle.
The display is provided with 1.1mm soda lime glass with an ITO conductive EMI filter and an additional 1.1mm
soda lime glass overlay with sputtered anti-reflective (AR) coating. Both pieces of glass are optically bonded to
each other and to the front of the display for superior viewing and ruggedness. A 3mm copper bus bar around
the entire glass stack-up provides grounding. The contrast is enhanced to approximately 1300:1 with this
ITO/Anti-Reflective glass stack-up.
The Aspect Ratio for the display is 5:4. The Pixel Pitch for the 17-inch display is .264 x .264mm. The display
offers 16.7 million colors (True Color). The display provides multiple signal input options including aRGB and
DVI-D.
The display offers a high quality advanced scaling controller with a Genesis chipset. The LCD controller offers
DVI-D and VGA (aRGB) inputs. This is a specifically ruggedized controller offering as standard conformal
coating with high shock/vibration and temperature extreme tolerances.
With only 24.6-inches of installed depth, the CCXR-17 is perfect for confined rack or transit case installations.
Adapters are provided for mounting in up to 37-inch deep racks. They are primarily designed for rugged Military
applications but can be used in Industrial, Commercial, or Broadcast applications where reliability, quality and
long program life availability preclude the use of cheaply made imported units.
A choice of two sealed keyboards is offered providing either a Touchpad or Hula Point pointing device. Both
keyboards are NEMA-4 / IP65 rated sealed silicone rubber construction with tactile feedback and full travel for
comfortable typing. Carbon on gold contacts assures reliable operation. The keyboards are rated for 10 million
lifecycles per switch.
The Touchpad keyboard offers 97 keys with two mouse buttons while the Hula Pointer version offers 113 keys
with three mouse buttons. Both PS/2 and USB outputs are standard with the Hula Point version while the
Touchpad version is available only with USB output. The Touch Pad version is backlit. The keyboards are
completely sealed to meet IP-65 to prevent liquid ingress so coffee and Coke spills don't faze them. The
keyboards can be wiped down with a wet rag to clean any spills.
A built-in 4- port VGA KVM is available.
As with all Chassis Plans products, a wide variety of custom options can be configured per customer or
application specific requirements. Contact your Sales Engineer to discuss your particular requirements.

Genesis Based LCD Controller
The LCD Controller is a key component in any display system and no expense has been spared in specifying
the Genesis controller used in the CCXR-17. This is a long life revision controlled military grade component.
The Genesis chip set is the current gold standard for LCD controllers. The controllers support 3x8-bit 16.7
million colors at up to 1600x1200 scaled to 1280x1024 native panel resolution. Refresh rates of 60Hz for UXGA
and SXGA with higher refresh rates for lower resolutions available. Computer input signals of VGA, SVGA,
XGA, SXGA, WXGA and UXGA are supported. DVI inputs supports up to1600x1200 60Hz signals. This
ruggedized military grade controller is rated for operating at -40 to +80 deg C, use low mass tantalum capacitors
for maximum vibration and shock tolerance and are conformal coated for extreme ruggedness. MTBF for the
controllers is in excess of 200K hours.
The controller will provide input scaling of virtually any input signal to scale the image to the 1280x1024 native
LCD panel resolution. They provide for PC, Apple and Sun input resolutions.
Friction Slides
Rugged General Devices friction slides have been specified. Ball bearing slides are a weak point in any
rackmount keyboard design and the use of friction slides negates those problems. Using friction slides allows
the keyboard to stay at the position you place it without the use of troublesome lock-outs. Friction slides also
have a very high tolerance for dust and dirt that typically destroys ball bearing slides in very short order.
Ultra high quality milled aluminum Jonathon slides are optionally available as specified.

LCD Enhancements
In the CCX family of rugged military grade LCD keyboard drawers, Chassis Plans starts with Grade A Industrial
Quality LCD panels selected for optical performance, high reliability and long product life cycle. In order to not
only ruggedize the LCD, but to also enhance the mechanical, optical and EMI properties of the finished unit
Chassis Plans optically bonds 2 layers of coated 1.1 mm soda-lime float glass to the front of the LCD panel. The
first layer is coated with an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coating with a surface resistivity of <13.5 ohms/sq. See
Figure 2 for attenuation values.
Figure 2 – EMI Shielding Effectiveness of ITO Coating
There is a Copper conductive buss bar that wraps around the edge of the glass to facilitate conduction from the
ITO coating to the front surface of the laminated structure to make a complete electrical shield around the face of
the LCD. See Figure 3 for details.
Figure 3 – Optical Stack on LCD
The second layer of glass is coated with an Anti-Reflective (AR) coating which matches the index of refraction of
air to eliminate surface reflections. These layers of coated glass are bonded together with an index matching
optical adhesive to eliminate internal reflections caused by the index of refraction mismatch between the soda
lime glass and air. This eliminates over 95% of unwanted glare from the screen. Please see Figure 4 below for
more details.

Figure 4 – Comparison of Reflections with and without Optical Bonding
The resulting structure has greatly enhanced optical characteristics in high ambient light conditions. The optical
adhesive used is a silicone RTV and offers other benefits mechanically to the LCD as well. The adhesive
remains pliable and therefore acts as a shock absorbing medium for the front of the LCD. Together with the
additional layers of glass provides a very rugged composite structure. Another benefit is that should breakage
actually occur the shards of glass will be retained together to prevent injury to personnel. The adhesive also
prevents any condensation from building up in the air gap between the layers of glass which would cause
fogging of the display. Finally, the added mass bonded to the front of the LCD display adds a thermal
conduction path to help dissipate the heat generated in the backlights themselves.
By eliminating the majority of reflected light, the apparent contrast improves making the display more readable in
high bright situations. An alternative to improving the contrast is to increase the back light levels to overpower
the reflected light. The downside to this approach is the higher power requirements and higher heat generated
by the backlights.

KVM Connection
Cable Connections
To set up your CCXR-17 with KVM, refer to the installation diagram on the following page (the numbers in the
diagrams correspond to the steps below) and do the following:
1. Using the included short PS/2 and USB jumper cables, plug the outputs of the CCXR-17 Keyboard and
Mouse (left side of rear panel) into the appropriate ports on the KVM side of the rear panel (right side).
2. Using the included short VGA jumper cable, plug the VGA input on the left side of the rear panel into the
VGA output on the KVM side.
Note – the CPU1-4 connections look like a HD15 VGA connector. On closer inspection, they are mirror
images and you cannot plug a VGA cable into them. The VGA connector is the HD15 on the left of the 4
CPU connectors.
3. Using the custom KVM cable sets (provided with this package), plug the custom SPHD connector into
any available socket in the KVM port section of the switch.
4. At the other end of the cables, plug the USB or PS/2 and VGA connectors into their respective ports on
the computer.
Note – if your computer supports both USB and PS/2, you should plug in both sets of cables.
5. If you choose to use external power, plug the power adapter into an AC power source, then plug the
power adapter cable into the switch’s Power Jack. The KVM is powered by 5VDC.
6. Turn on power to the computers.
