OMPONENTS
In most applications, your PERC2000 controller card is shipped
pre-installed either in a 1RU stand-alone chassis, or mounted
internal to a Cheetah video matrix router, as shown in Step 2 of
this guide.
In the rare instance that your controller card is received as an
individual component always observe proper ESD handling
precautions when installing card.
Regardless of mounting option, verify that all components
identified below are included with your shipment.
Visually inspect for any signs of damage in shipment or transit.
If any components are missing or damaged, contact PESA
Customer Service.

ET CQUAINTED
PERC2000 (P2K) can interface with system components over
either an Ethernet connection or the PESA proprietary PRC bus;
and also with a host PC running the PERC2000 software
application using a network connection.
P2K also interfaces and communicates with a wide variety of
PESA remote control panels used to operate switcher frames
within the system.
P2K controller must be programmed by downloading a
configuration file to it using the host PC and configuration
software application.
Configuration files, written by user, tailor all operational aspects
of router system.
Files may be named and saved for easy retrieval.
Regardless of number of system components or number of
frame controllers, PESA router installations typically function
under a single System Controller to coordinate and oversee
operation of entire system.
When used in an installation containing one or more Cheetah
video matrix routers, controller hardware is usually mounted in
one of the video router frames.
All Cheetah video routers offer mounting slots for up to two
controller cards, serving as primary and redundant controllers,
and power is derived from router power distribution.
All system controller connection ports, such as remote control
panel buses and the PRC bus for system expansion, are
available on rear panel of router frame.
If installation does not include a Cheetah video router, or if it is
desirable to have controller located external to router frame,
P2K controller hardware is mounted in a 1RU frame with
internal power supply.

In all applications and in normal operation, there is no user interface required with the PERC2000
circuit card assembly.
An illustration of controller card is shown in the next column with exploded areas showing detail
of DIP switch devices and 6-pin header connector for jumper shunts.
For ALL normal applications of

Indicators and controls located along front edge of controller circuit card assembly are shown in
illustration below:
R
ESET
As viewed from front of card, there is an unlabeled, recessed push button Reset switch on left-
hand side, behind metal panel.
This switch is used during factory testing and configuration, and should not be used in the field
unless directed by a PESA service technician.
P (PWR) IN
OWER
When lit, indicates that system controller is receiving input power from frame power supply.
R (REGS) OK
EGULATORS
When lit, indicates that on-board power regulators are functioning correctly and operating voltage
rails are present.
A
LARM
When lit, indicates a fault condition within system controller card; or, if redundant controller card is
present, a fault with communication activity between controllers.
A
CTIVE
Panel section labeled ACTIVE contains a pushbutton switch and an LED indicator.
In systems with dual controllers, the Active LED indicates which controller is active (LED lit) and
which is backup (LED not lit).
Pressing pushbutton switch on standby controller card swaps active and backup controllers.
In single controller system, LED is lit when controller hardware is functioning - pushbutton switch
has no effect.
ETHERNET LED
S
Provide visual status of Ethernet activity as follows:
Link (LNK) – When lit, indicates an Ethernet link is established
Activity (ACT) – flashes as Ethernet data traffic is exchanged over link
SP LED
This LED is for factory testing and configuration only and is not used during normal operation of
controller.
USB C
ONNECTOR
Connector is for future product use, and not used in current PERC2000 applications.

NSTALL
Configuring a P2K control system requires you to install and set up hardware, install P2K software
and then establish communication between controller hardware, host PC and PESA routing
equipment.
Whether installed in a video router frame or stand-alone chassis, P2K hardware is functionally
identical.
When installed in 1RU stand-alone chassis, controller hardware is attached to extender tray to
allow it to fit chassis card guides and midplane connectors.
