Installing Connector and LED
Panels
The CP and CLP connector panels provide easy-to-use connections
between the board and external devices. Devices can be individually
connected, disconnected or interchanged without soldering. This
simplifies system construction, testing and troubleshooting.
The CLPs additionally provide arrays of LEDs, which indicate the states
of the digital signals.
Connecting
CP/CLP to a board
After you have installed the board in the host PC or in an expansion
box, you can connect the accompanying panel to the board. For
detailed instructions, refer to How to Connect a Panel (CP, CLP) to a
Board on page 45.
Mounting panels
in a rack
As a standard, the CP and CLP connector panels are installed in a
desktop box made from aluminum profiles. They can optionally be
mounted in a 19’’ industry rack. For instructions, refer to How to
Mount a Panel in a 19'' Rack on page 46.
