High-Speed Pneumatic Pressure Controller CPC3000 3.2 Features Below is a short list of significant features designed into the CPC3000: 1. The CPC3000 will control (up scale or down scale) into a 150 ml volume, to within 0.025% of the set point, in 3 seconds or less.
Figure - Rear Panel 3.4 Front panel The CPC3000 front panel, shown in Figure - "Front Panel", includes a 7 inch color display featuring touch screen technology. Operator input is accomplished by pressing the number, words or symbols presented on the display. There are no mechanical keypads or switches on the front panel.
High-Speed Pneumatic Pressure Controller CPC3000 3.5 Main menu When the CPC3000 is powered up it takes about 40 seconds for initialization, then displays a screen similar to the Figure - "Initial Screen" below. User defined control range limits (configurable via SETUP-CONTROL)
This is useful when calibrating or testing various range devices. Figure - "Bar Graph" shows the bar graph when the CPC3000 is in vent mode with a setpoint of 2.5 psig. The user defined range is 0 to 4 and there is an unused portion of the internal sensor.

6, Starting operation). 5.8.2 Connecting the Communications interfaces USB 2.0 FS Interface The USB 2.0 FS connection on the rear panel of the CPC3000 is a USB-B Type connector. The USB driver can be downloaded at http://www.mensor.com/download_software_instrument_en_ um.WIKA. IEEE-488 Interface (GPIB) The connection of the IEEE-488 interface is designed as a 24-pin IEEE-488-socket.

High-Speed Pneumatic Pressure Controller CPC3000 ETHERNET Interface The ethernet communication port allows the CPC3000 to communicate with computers using 10/100 Based-T specifications. Please consult your Computer Resources Department prior to connecting this instrument to your network to verify there are no conflicts with existing IP addresses.
When working with or on the instru- ment, safety glasses should be worn. In the rooms in which the CPC3000 is operated sufficient air ventilation has to be ensured. When the above points have been met you can switch on the system, (the switch is located on the rear of the instrument) and configure it as required after you have familiarized yourself with the operation (see section 7, Local Operation).
Screen Hierarchy: Navigation within the CPC3000 is similar to a computer file system or a web page. Keys or tabs activate sub-menus. Within the sub-menus there may be related sub-menus or selections. To return back through the hierarchy of screens the [BACK] key is provided.

CONTROL port. Figure -"Measure Mode" shows the state of the isolation valves in measure mode. When the CPC3000 is turned off all the valves close and could trap pressurized gas within the pneumatics. It is safe practice to vent after use and before connecting any devices to the Measure/Control port.

The CPC3000 can emulate gauge from a native absolute sensor or absolute from a native gauge sensor. The [MODE] key indicates the native mode with a blue key background and emula- tion mode with a light blue key background.
Figure - "Setup". The setup menu has five tabs: [DISPLAY], [CONTROL], [REMOTE], [INFO] and [SERVICE]. Each tab is described in detail in the following sections. The screen below has the [DISPLAY] tab active. Figure - Setup Operating Instructions - CPC3000...
Barometer (optional): The Barometer check box is under the "View" section and enables or disables the indication of the barometric pressure on the main menu. Operating Instructions - CPC3000...
Range" label in Figure - "Setup Control" allow the operator to enter a "user defined range" within the full scale range of the internal sensor. For example, if the CPC3000 has a 0-100 psi internal sensor, the user can define a range of 0-50 psi. When the user defined range is changed, the step menu automatically adjusts so that the percent step equals a percentage of the user defined range.

In this section there is also a [REMOTE MONITOR] key that will open a screen that shows the most recent commands and responses sent and received plus any errors.
A new zero value corresponding to a true pressure applied at the Measure/Control port can be entered in this screen. For gauge sensors, the sensor is automatically vented and "zeroed" at the current atmospheric pressure. In the latter case the zero adjustment screen does not appear.

Figure - Setup Remote 8.2 Remote setup – Ethernet The Ethernet communication port allows the CPC3000 to communicate with computers using 10/100 Bases-T specification. Ethernet communications are transmitted over a standard RJ-45 cable. Connecting directly to a PC requires a crossover Ethernet cable. Hub or router connections require a straight Ethernet cable.
8.3 Remote setup – USB The USB communication port allows the CPC3000 to communicate with computers using a USB cable. The connection on the back panel of the CPC3000 is a Type B recepticle. The USB Driver can be downloaded at http://www.mensor.com/download_software_instrument_en_um.WIKA.
All commands must be terminated with a <cr> or a <lf>. For a query command (ends with a ?), the Data column represents the response of the CPC3000. All response strings begin with a space character or an “E” representing that there is an error in the CPC3000 error queue.
