1. OVERVIEW
The CP-3100E is the first of the VUE family of control panels and is optimized for single or multi-
system control applications. The CP-3100E features one large touch screen for quick selection and
navigation, four user defined buttons, and a single shaft encoder. The buttons can be configured to
quickly change between modes or menus. The shaft encoder can be used for selection or navigation
requirements.
The CP-3100 features two 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports supporting separate networks for isolating
router based and SNMP based control applications. Using the VUE engine the panel enables operators
to integrate the control of routing systems, multi-viewers, and terminal equipment.

RESET: Switch to reboot the unit
2.1.1. Ethernet Connection
The panel uses 10Base-T (10 Mbps), 100Base-TX (100 Mbps), 1000Base-TX (1000 Mbps) twisted pair
Ethernet cabling systems. Ethernet Port A and Port B are not bonded redundant network connections..
When connecting for 10Base-T systems, category 3, 4, or 5 UTP cable as well as EIA/TIA – 568 100Ω
STP cable may be used. When connecting for 100Base-TX systems, category 5 UTP cable is
required. The cable must be “straight-through” with an RJ-45 connector at each end. Establish the
network connection by plugging one end of the cable into the RJ-45 receptacle of the card and the
other end into a port of the supporting hub.
The straight-through RJ-45 cable can be purchased or can be constructed using the pin-out
information in Table 2-1. A colour coded wiring table is provided in Table 2-1 for the current RJ-45
standards (AT&T 258A or EIA/TIA 258B colour coding shown). Also refer to the notes following the
table for additional wiring guide information.

Table 2-1: Standard RJ-45 Wiring Colour Codes
Note the following cabling information for this wiring guide:
•Only two pairs of wires are used in the 8-pin RJ-45 connector to carry Ethernet signals.
•Even though pins 4, 5, 7 and 8 are not used, it is mandatory that they be present in the cable.
•10BaseT and 100BaseT use the same pins (a crossover cable made for one will also work with
the other).
•Pairs may be solid colours and not have a stripe.
•Category 5 cable must use Category 5 rated connectors.
The maximum cable run between the router and the supporting hub is 300 ft (90 m). The maximum
combined cable run between any two end points (i.e. router and PC/laptop via network hub) is 675 feet
(205 m).
Devices on the Ethernet network continually monitor the receive data path for activity as a means of
checking that the link is working correctly. When the network is idle, the devices also send a link test
signal to one another to verify link integrity. The rear panel is fitted with two LEDs to monitor the
Ethernet connection.

CP-3100E
System Control Panel
Page 4 Revision 1.0
100: This Amber LED is ON when a 100Base-TX link is last detected. The LED is OFF when a
10Base-T link is last detected (the LINK LED is ON). Upon power-up the LED is OFF as
the last detected rate is not known and therefore defaults to the 10Base-T state until rate
detection is completed.
LN/ACT: This dual purpose Green LED indicates that the card has established a valid linkage to its
hub, and it identifies whether the module is sending or receiving data. This LED will be
ON when the module has established a good link to its supporting hub. This gives you a
good indication that the segment is wired correctly. The LED will BLINK when the module
is sending or receiving data. The LED will be OFF if there is no valid connection.
The Ethernet ports on the CP-3100E are not redundant and are used to
communicate to different subnets/networks.
2.1.2. Power Connections
The CP-3100E power supply operates on a 120/240VAC and automatically senses the input voltage.
Power should be applied by connecting a 3-wire grounding type power supply cord to the power entry
module on the rear panel. The power cord should be minimum 18 AWG wire size; type SVT marked
VW-1, maximum 2.5 m in length.
The IEC 320 power entry module combines a standard power inlet connector, two 5 x 20 mm fuse
holders and an EMI line filter.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, GROUNDING OF THE
GROUND PIN OF THE MAINS PLUG MUST BE MAINTAINED
2.2. MOUNTING
The CP-3100E is mounted using either the CP-3100E-RMB Rack mount bracket with one filler plate or
the CP-3100E-TEK Rack mount bracket for mounting within a customer provided Tetronix scope
cage. The CP-3100E-RMB rack mounting angles fits into a 16.41 inch by 5.20 inch by 8.70 inch
(417mm x 132mm x 221mm) rack space.
Cooling is achieved by fan-assisted convection. Air is drawn into the left side, right side and top of the
chassis and expelled as hot air from the rear of the chassis.
When installed in the equipment rack, ensure that the air flow is available to the left,
right and top vents
