Table 1 – Display Specifications
The displays are high-performance, long life TFT LCD’s offering a maximum native wide-screen resolution of 1920 x 1080. The displays offer optional optically bonded anti-reflective overlay glass. In addition, an optional laminated 1.1mm soda lime glass with an ITO conductive EMI filter and an additional 1.1mm soda lime glass overlay with anti-reflective (AR) coating. Both glass components are optically bonded to each other, and to the front of the display, for superior viewing clarity and overall ruggedness. A 6mm copper bus bar surrounds the entire glass stack-up and provides consistent grounding. A contrast ratio of approximately 1300:1 is delivered with this ITO/Anti-Reflective glass stack-up. The front surface is an oleophobic anti-reflective coating resistant to fingerprints.
The displays offer 16.7 million colors (True Color). The displays provide multiple signal input options including aRGB, DVI-D, HDMI, Display Port, HD-SDI, NTSC, S-Video and Composite Video, depending on the controller.
The displays offer a choice of high quality advanced scaling controllers with a Genesis chipset. These are specifically ruggedized controllers offering as standard conformal coating with high shock/vibration and temperature extreme tolerances as well as long life product availability for assured delivery throughout multi-year programs.
The Standard Controller offers DVI-D, VGA (aRGB), HDMI, NTSC, S-Video and CVS with an option for Component (YCbCr) input. In addition, the Standard Controller supports Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and Picture-By­Picture.
The Advanced HD-SDI Controller offers VGA (aRGB), HDMI, Display Port, HD-SDI and 3G HD-SDI.
The display is only 6U (10.47-inches) high offering significant rack space savings. It can be rack mounted, panel mounted, or mounted using a VESA adapter via the included VESA hole pattern on the rear of the unit. It is only
3.2-inches deep and power and signal cables exit down so as to not increase depth requirements.
As with all Chassis Plans products, a wide variety of custom options can be configured per customer or application specific requirements. Contact your Sales Engineer to discuss your particular requirements.

LCD Enhancements
Chassis Plans starts with Grade A Industrial Quality LCD panels selected for optical performance, high reliability and long product life cycle. In order to not only ruggedize the LCD, but to also enhance the mechanical, optical and EMI properties of the finished unit, as an option, Chassis Plans optically bonds one 3mm anti-reflective or two layers of coated 1.1 mm soda-lime float glass to the front of the LCD panel. The first layer is coated with an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coating with a surface resistivity of <13.5 ohms/sq. See Figure 1 for attenuation values.

Figure 1 – EMI Shielding Effectiveness of ITO Coating
There is a Copper conductive buss bar that wraps around the edge of the glass to facilitate conduction from the ITO coating to the front surface of the laminated structure to make a complete electrical shield around the face of the LCD. See Figure 2 for details.

Figure 2 – Optical Stack on LCD
The second layer of glass is coated with an Oleophobic Anti-Reflective (AR) coating which matches the index of refraction of air to eliminate surface reflections. These layers of coated glass are bonded together with an index matching optical adhesive to eliminate internal reflections caused by the index of refraction mismatch between the soda lime glass and air. This eliminates over 95% of unwanted glare from the screen. Please see Figure 3 below for more details.

Figure 3 – Comparison of Reflections with and without Optical Bonding
The resulting structure in conjunction with the CPX2-1732 Hi-Bright 1000nit panel has greatly enhanced optical characteristics in high ambient light conditions. The optical adhesive used is a silicone RTV and offers other benefits mechanically to the LCD as well. The adhesive remains pliable and therefore acts as a shock absorbing medium for the front of the LCD. Together with the additional layers of glass provides a very rugged composite structure. Another benefit is that should breakage actually occur the shards of glass will be retained together to prevent injury to personnel. The adhesive also prevents any condensation from building up in the air gap between the layers of glass which would cause fogging of the display. Finally, the added mass bonded to the front of the LCD display adds a thermal conduction path to help dissipate the heat generated in the backlights themselves.
By eliminating the majority of reflected light, the apparent contrast improves making the display more readable in high bright situations. An alternative to improving the contrast is to increase the back light levels to overpower the reflected light. The downside to this approach is the higher power requirements and higher heat generated by the backlights.

Genesis Based LCD Controllers
The LCD Controller is a key component in any display system and no expense has been spared in specifying the Standard Controller and Advanced HD-SDI Controller Genesis controllers. These are long life revision controlled military grade components. The Genesis chip set is the current gold standard for LCD controllers.
The controllers support 3x8-bit 16.7 million colors at up to 1920 x 1200. Refresh rates of 60Hz for WUXGA and UXGA with higher refresh rates for lower resolutions available. Computer input signals of VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, WXGA, UXGA and WUXGA are supported.
Video inputs of NTSC, PAL and SECAM are optionally available. DVI inputs supports up to 1920 x 1080 WUXGA 60Hz signals.
These ruggedized military grade controllers are rated for operating at -40 to +80 deg C, use low mass tantalum capacitors for maximum vibration and shock tolerance and are conformal coated for extreme ruggedness. The coating is silicone resin conformal coating.(MOD) DEF­STAN 59/47 Issue 4 &UL QMJU2 compliant
MTBF for the controllers is in excess of 150,000 to 200,000 hours.

12VDC Input Transient Filter
The CPX2-173 display consoles require nominal +12VDC at 40W for operation. An EMI line filter is provided to limit EMI emissions and to provide a small measure of input filtering.
For operation from unregulated 12VDC (+/-10%) such as in a vehicular or marine environment, front end transient filtering is required to suppress potentially damaging spikes from large inductive loads in the DC circuit (starters, etc.).
The xxx 12VDC Input Transient Filter provides an input Transient Protection as well as inductive and capacitive filtering to suppress large input transients. A bridge rectifier provides reverse connection protection. A circuit breaker provides for failure protection and allows the power to be disconnected.

Chassis Plans CPX2-173 Technical Reference Appendix B – Auto Color Gain
Appendix B – Auto Color Gain
The Auto Color Gain function is supported in the ARGB mode only and is designed to calibrate the controller to the incoming video signal. In order to calibrate correctly, the display must be displaying an image containing both black and white data (see illustration below) when the function is used. The internal processor of the video controller chip will then execute a process to adjust the relative values of the RGB signals to achieve the best performance. The parameters of the corrected RGB values are then stored in the controller and are unaffected by the Reset Factory Defaults function.
Image B-1 – Auto Color Gain Example
The reference pattern can be downloaded at :
http://www.chassis-plans.com/Rackmount-Keyboard-Displays/TestPattern_1280.bmp
This reference pattern is for 1280x1024 resolution and it needs to set your ARGB input source to 1280x1024 resolution before performing the Auto Color Gain function. The position of the black vertical bar in the pattern at the right side is important. It will affect the calibration result if you are setting the ARGB input to other resolution. This image can be used on the CPX1-124 to correctly set the Auto Color Gain.
Warning - If the Auto Color Gain is executed without an appropriate image being displayed, then the process will set incorrect values and the display colors will be distorted. If this occurs, then it can either be corrected by performing the process correctly or if this is not possible then the Reset Color Gain function can be used. This function will reset the stored RGB values to a set of approximate values.

Chassis Plans CPX2-173 Technical Reference Appendix C – DVI-D versus DVI-I
Appendix C – DVI-D versus DVI-I Connectors
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video interface standard designed to provide very high visual quality on digital display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital projectors. It was developed by an industry consortium, the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG). It is designed for carrying uncompressed digital video data to a display. It is partially compatible with the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard in digital mode (DVI-D), and VGA in analog mode (DVI-A).
The LCD controllers offered with the CCX keyboards offer DVI-D and DVI-I, depending on which controller is selected. This discussion is presented to help clarify the difference between the various flavors of DVI.
Overview
The DVI interface uses a digital protocol in which the desired illumination of pixels is transmitted as binary data. When the display is driven at its native resolution, it will read each number and apply that brightness to the appropriate pixel. In this way, each pixel in the output buffer of the source device corresponds directly to one pixel in the display device, whereas with an analog signal the appearance of each pixel may be affected by its adjacent pixels as well as by electrical noise and other forms of analog distortion.
Connectors
The DVI connector usually contains pins to pass the DVI-native digital video signals. In the case of dual-link systems, additional pins are provided for the second set of data signals.
As well as digital signals, the DVI connector includes pins providing the same analog signals found on a VGA connector, allowing a VGA monitor to be connected with a simple plug adapter. This feature was included in order to make DVI universal, as it allows either type of monitor (analog or digital) to be operated from the same connector.
The DVI connector on a device is therefore given one of four names, depending on which signals it implements:
DVI-D (digital only) DVI-I (integrated, digital & analog)
The connector also includes provision for a second data link for high resolution displays, though many devices do not implement this. In those that do, the connector is sometimes referred to as DVI-DL (dual link).
The long flat pin on a DVI-I connector is wider than the same pin on a DVI-D connector, so it is not possible to connect a male DVI-I to a female DVI-D by removing the 4 analog pins. It is possible, however, to connect a male DVI-D cable to a female DVI-I connector. Many flat panel LCD monitors have only the DVI-D connection so that a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable will suffice when connecting the monitor to a computer's DVI-I female connector.
Essentially, DVI-D is the same as DVI-I with DVI-D missing the analog portion of the signals. A DVI-D connector and monitor can connect to a DVI-I output and function. A DVI-I monitor can connect to a DVI-D output with the caveat that no analog video will be available.

Chassis Plans CPX2-173 Technical Reference Appendix D – Ethernet Network Connection
Appendix D – Ethernet Network Connection
The CPX2-173 with the Standard Controller has an RJ-45 Ethernet port for control and monitoring over a network. This appendix introduces the two user interface modes:
Command line direct mode (this is the default mode)  Browser based web server mode
There is also a short overview of the command set and how it is implemented in Appendix A.
QUICK GUIDE
Command line direct mode: This is relevant when a PC application is used to send and receive
commands over the network port. The LCD Controller with the command line direct mode is installed as default.
The RS-232 commands available are the same as documented Appendix A and writing a control application is very similar to the RS-232 type except the commands must pass through the network. An alternative is to use an application written for RS-232 communication and use a virtual serial port program such as:
One of the software program can be download at
This software can create “Virtual” RS232 serial ports that are actually connections to a TCP/IP port. This allows you to use existing Windows based serial communications software to send and receive data across a TCP/IP network.
Please note this is a 3rd party program and is not warranted nor is it the responsibility of Chassis Plans.
Browser based web server mode :
For experienced users the following quick guide to trying out the network connection and functions may be useful.
Works with a normal network with DHCP, i.e. must use a router.  Connect the LCD to the network and ensure power is on.  Use the IP Locator utility available at
only)
Double click on the IP address in the IP Locator window, it will open the LCD Controller browser
page in your default browser. Alternatively copy the IP address into your browser address line.
Test the functions that come up on the browser.
http://www.taltech.com/products/tcpcom.html.
http://www.chassis-plans.com/ip-locator.zip (Windows
CAUTION: Configuring TCP/IP settings are complicated and may require an experienced network administrator. For additional help or network configuration, contract your network provider.
Connecting a network port to CPX2-173
Connect the CPX2-173 to the network with a standard Cat-5 Ethernet cable. Note: A straight RJ-45 cable should be used to connect to the network switch/hub/router.
Page 43
Chassis Plans CPX2-173 Technical Reference Appendix D – Ethernet Network Connection
Get the IP address using DHCP
When in a default state and powered on, the IP controller will first try to obtain its IP address and network information, such as Subnet Mask address, Gateway address, etc., from the DHCP server. The IP controller may also be configured manually.
If you have a DHCP server on your network, the CPX2-173 automatically obtains its IP address from that server.
• DHCP services must be available on the server.
• If the CPX2-173 and DHCP server are located on different subnets, IP configuration may fail unless the routing device allows the transfer of DHCP requests between subnets.
Web Console
The Web Console is a small web server program (.bin) embedded in the CPX2-173. It provides the user nterface that can be accessed and viewed on any standard web browser. The web console provides a platform where you can inquire and control the RS-232 devices which connecting to IP controller.
IP Locator
The IP Locator is a tool to search for any available CPX2-173 connected to the local network within same subnet. If you don’t know the IP address of your CPX2-173, the IP Locator program can help you to find the IP address allocated to your CPX2-173. The following example IP Locator’s screen shows the devices detected, as
well as the IP address, host name and MAC address. (Please copy the IP Locator from the Chassis Plans
website at
www.chassis-plans.com/ip-locator.zip)
Image D-1 – IP Locator Screen Show
Pressing the Discover Devices button will re-detect the devices and update the screen.
Note: Make sure you have “Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0” already installed on your PC before using the “IP Locator”.
