CP-Link-4 input

The control panel has a CP-Link 4 input (X102) in the form of an 8-pin M12 socket. Via the interface, the control panel can be connected to an industrial PC at a distance of up to 100 m. The connection can be made either directly with an industrial PC with a corresponding PCIe module or indirectly via an intermediate transmitter box.

CP-Link 4 is available as a Two Cable Display Link on an industrial PC with PCIe module. The devices shown below are examples of all CP-Link 4-capable industrial PCs and control panels.

The control panel can be connected directly to the industrial PC via the module. USB 2.0 (100 Mbit/s) and DVI are transmitted together via a CP-Link 4 cable. An additional power supply is required for the control panel.

CP-Link 4 with CU8802 transmitter box

If the industrial PC is not equipped with a PCIe module, a transmitter box is required for connecting the control panel.

When installing the control panel with the CU8802 transmitter box, the industrial PC is connected to the transmitter box via USB and DP/DVI. The transmitter box is then connected to the control panel via the CP-Link 4 connection of the transmitter box using a CP-Link 4 cable. USB and DVI are transmitted together via this cable. An additional power supply is required for the control panel (Two Cable Display Link). The following figure shows the wire connection to the CU8802-000x.
