Safety Requirements The following safety precautions must be observed when installing or operating the CP3923. Kontron assumes no responsi- bility for any damage resulting from failure to comply with these requirements. WARNING Due care should be exercised when handling the board due to the fact that the heat sink can get very hot.
• Fasten the front panel retaining screws. • Only non-conduction-cooled versions: Connect all external interfacing cables to the board as required. • Ensure that the board and all required interfacing cables are properly secured. 4. The CP3923 is now ready for operation. www.kontron.com...
The CP3923 comes as a pre-installed system with all necessary OS, filesystem, drivers and applications factory-installed with default configurations. Updating the Software with new operating system or applications or new versions is provided by a dedicated update mech- anism, which is described in Chapter 4. www.kontron.com...

Uplink Ethernet Ports (CP3923-8M and CP3923-4M) The eight/four Ethernet Ports support 100Base-TX operation and are implemented as an Industrial M12 D-coded female connector on the front panel. This interface is connected as an uplink port to the on-board Ethernet switch. www.kontron.com...
An RS232 interface of the Unit Computer is the serial port which is routed to a miniature connector on the front plate. An adapter cable is available from Kontron to establish a connection with a terminal with a standard DB9 serial port.
For accessing the GbE interfaces signals without a rear I/O module, a backplane is required which routes the Ethernet sig- nals directly to the CPU slots without the need of external cabling. Please contact Kontron if you're looking for such a solu- tion.

The complete list of sensors and their alarm thresholds can be found in chapter “Board Sensors” on page 60. As long as the temperature values stay below their upper critical threshold, all components on the CP3923 are considered to be operated within their specified temperature range.

(aberration is not qualified). WARNING As Kontron assumes no responsibility for any damage to the CP3923 or other equipment resulting from overheating any of the components, it is highly recommended that system integrators as well as end users confirm that the operational environment of the CP3923 complies with the thermal considerations set forth in this document.
Input power connections to the backplane itself should be carefully specified to ensure a minimum of power loss and to guarantee operational stability. Long input lines, under-dimensioned cabling or bridges, high resistance connections, etc. must be avoided. It is recommended to use POSITRONIC or M-type connector backplanes and power supplies where possible. www.kontron.com...
The +5 VDC output level must always be equal to or higher than the +3.3 VDC output during power-up and normal operation. Both voltages must reach their minimum in-regulation level not later than 20 ms after the output power ramp start. www.kontron.com...
RESET will not help any more. The system must be switched off for at least 3 seconds before it may be switched on again. If problems still occur, turn off the main power for 30 seconds before turning it on again. www.kontron.com...
6.2.1 Start-up Currents The start-up currents of the CP3923 during the first 2-3 seconds after power has been applied (power-on or hot-swap inser- tion) are less than the maximum currents given in Table 6-3 for each of the variants. www.kontron.com...
