  • Page 5: Introduction

    CCpilot VA Technical Manual 2017-03-13 1. Introduction CCpilot VA is a freely programmable display computer with 7” full-colour TFT and optional touch screen. The powerful ARM based CPU and Linux operating system constitutes an open platform that ® ® enables implementation of premium user-machine interaction, reliable controls and integrated fleet management.

  • Page 6: Identification

    1.4. Ruggedization The CCpilot VA device has been designed to manage tough environmental demands. Much effort has been put into designing and selecting system components to provide a reliable and robust device. Thorough testing has been performed in order to ensure compliance to a broad range of applicable regulatory requirements and to meet the user expectations of a ruggedized device for vehicle- and machinery control.

  • Page 7: Device Overview

    2. Device overview This chapter contains illustrations of the CCpilot VA models showing the location of external connectors, indicators etc. Information about various CCpilot VA models can be found in chapter 1.1 - Product models. Connectors are described in more detail in chapter 6.

    CCpilot VA with panel mounting bracket The mounting bracket is designed for a panel thickness of 1.5 - 3.0 mm. Panel cutout dimensions are according to figure below. A drawing in DXF-format for precision cutting of panels is available upon request.

  • Page 11: Connecting To Power Supply

    2017-03-13 3.2. Connecting to power supply This chapter describes how the CCpilot VA is preferably connected to the power supply of a vehicle, or other machinery. The principle is the same also for other types of installations. Carefully read through the following sub-chapters before installing the device. Connector pinouts are found in chapter 6.
  • Page 12 Turnkey switch (S2) is closed and shut down when the switch is opened. Note that the on/off behaviour of the CCpilot VA described is the default configuration. Its response to the on/off signal may be disabled or changed by user applications. For example, the signal may be configured for suspending and resuming the device or the device may be configured to always start when the power supply is available.

  • Page 13: Grounding/Touch-Screen Decoupling

    All cables to the CCpilot VA device shall be disconnected during welding to a machine.  Be advised that the CCpilot VA device consumes a small amount of power from the main supply also when shut down or suspended (see chapter 7.1). Therefore, if the device has been attached for a long period of time without the vehicle motor running, the battery may be drained resulting in inability to start up the vehicle.

  • Page 14: Special Considerations

     If shielded cable is used for Ethernet, the shield is preferably connected/grounded at the other end of the cable (and remain unconnected close to the CCpilot VA device).  If shielded cable is used for the main USB port, the shield is preferably spliced and joined with the USB ground wire externally.

  • Page 15: Handling And Maintenance

    Always consider personal safety when installing and operating the device. For example, in vehicle installations, maximatecc does not recommend that the device is being actively operated by the driver when a risk of injury to people or damage to property is present.

  • Page 16: Basic Operation

    (shutdown may take several seconds). A low-to-high transition must occur after the shutdown is fully completed to trigger a restart. Increase the shutdown trigger response time in case you don’t want the CCpilot VA device to shut down during short stops.

  • Page 17: Suspending/Resuming

    CCpilot VA Technical Manual 2017-03-13 4.1.2. Front panel button(s) Turn ON the device by short-pressing any of the front panel buttons configured as start-up triggers.  Note that none of the buttons are configured as start-up triggers by default. Turn OFF the device by either short- or long-pressing any of the buttons configured as action triggers with shutdown action assigned to either short- or long-presses.

    4.4. Using the touch-screen Note that not all CCpilot VA products variant contains a touch-screen. Basic usage of the capacitive touch screen should be intuitive for most users. Refer to the CCpilot VA Software guide for details about touch calibration.

  • Page 19: Status Notification

    CCpilot VA Technical Manual 2017-03-13 4.5. Status notification Button backlight is used for status notification while starting up, shutting down or when de device is in suspend mode. Button backlight is software controllable for notifications from user applications. The table below describes the default behaviour of the status notification for different operational states.

  • Page 20: Error Codes (Button Backlight And Buzzer Notifications)

    CCpilot VA Technical Manual 2017-03-13 4.6. Error codes (button backlight and buzzer notifications) The internal buzzer and the button backlight is used for signalling error codes when the device shuts down or cannot start up due to severe hardware or software failure.

  • Page 21: Interface Overview

    There is a light sensor in the front panel used by user applications or used with the built in automated function for dimming of the display brightness. For light sensor location, see chapter 2.1. Refer to the CCpilot VA Software guide for details about accessing the light sensor data from user applications.

  • Page 22: Analog Video Inputs

    Shielded cables shall be used to ensure reliable communication and electromagnetic compliance. Note that there’s no dedicated Ethernet shield connection on the CCpilot VA device, meaning that the cable shield must be terminated externally to provide full protection in electromagnetically noisy environments.

  • Page 23: Usb

    2017-03-13 5.7. USB CCpilot VA has two USB ports. One port is located in the multipin connector J1 and function as a USB host-port only. It can be used for connecting USB storage devices or other peripherals such as mouse, keyboard or various wireless interfaces.

  • Page 24: Configurable Inputs

    2017-03-13 5.8. Configurable Inputs CCpilot VA has eight configurable inputs for a wide range of digital and analog measurements. Note that there are two types of inputs. Channels 1-4 support resistance measurement but lack internal pull-up resistors. Channels 5-8 lack support for resistance measurement but have internal pull-up resistors.
  • Page 25 CCpilot VA Technical Manual 2017-03-13 voltages or currents are required or for interfacing open-drain (sink-only) drivers with inputs 1-4 which lack internal pull-ups. Frequency measurement is implemented in a co-processor though timer captures at a time-base of 72 MHz (100 ppm). This time-base gives a theoretical frequency resolution of approximately 0.014 Hz at 1 kHz and 3.12 Hz at 15 kHz (better resolution at lower frequencies).

  • Page 26: High-Side Pwm Outputs

    2017-03-13 5.9. High-side PWM outputs CCpilot VA has two self-protected high-side PWM outputs for switching various external loads such as buzzers, relays, solenoids, lamps or other resistive or inductive loads. The high-side output drivers are powered from the main supply voltage through internal over-voltage protection that limits the output voltage to 32 V (typ) in case of supply voltage transients.
