OCATION AND OUNTING The RCP-MP32D Control Panel has been designed to fit in a standard E.I.A. 19" equipment rack and occupy one rack unit of space (1.75"). An installation area should be selected where the ambient temperature will not exceed 40°C, and where air can circulate freely. The control panel should be mounted in an area convenient to control and power connections.
Remote Control Panel – RCP-MP32D Publication 81-9059-0624-0, Rev. B February 2012 Figure 3-1. Remote Control Panel Installation OLLING DDRESS For the system controller to identify a particular control panel, a specific device number or polling address must be assigned to each panel. Sequential binary numbers (1 through 1023) are used for this purpose.
Remote Control Panel – RCP-MP32D Publication 81-9059-0624-0, Rev. B February 2012 ONTROL ANEL ONTROLLER NTERCONNECTION Each control panel has a single 3-pin MTA connector located on its rear panel which is utilized for system communications to and from the controller. Control panels are daisy-chained to a communications port on the rear panel of the system controller or to a communications port on the rear panel of the routing switcher containing the system controller.

B February 2012 IRING ONTROL ANEL ONNECTOR Should an additional panel be added to your system, it will be necessary to wire the connector using shielded twisted pair cable and a 3-pin MTA connector using the following instructions. See Figure 3-4.
OWER ONNECTIONS Power for the RCP-MP32D Control Panel is supplied an external 7.5 VDC, 800 mA power supply. Remove the power supply from the box it was shipped in and check to insure that no damage has occurred in shipping. Verify that the power supply is rated for the proper AC voltage (i.e. 115 VAC or 230 VAC) before connection to the AC line voltage.
WITCH SSEMBLY Legends on the front panel pushbuttons of the RCP-MP32D Control Panel may be changed as needed. If it becomes necessary, due to configurations changes, to change the switch labels (legends) take the following steps to disassemble the switch cover to gain access to the switch legend while referring to...

Win3500 Control System Manual or the PERC 2000 Technical Manual for configuration instructions. All RCP-MP32D Control Panels in a routing switcher system are custom configured at the factory prior to shipment. The information needed to configure the control panels comes from the System Design Guide filled out by the customer.
YPES RCP-MP32D control panels are equipped with 40 pushbuttons configured with 32 data keys on the left, 4 page keys on the top right, 3 permanent data keys on the bottom right, and the lock/protect function key.
