Chapter 1 - Introduction

Description

The CCIR-17 is an industrial grade high performance 1U clamshell LCD keyboard drawer offering 17-inch TFT

LCD displays and sealed NEMA-4 keyboards. Unique is the side orientation allowing use in extremely tight

quarters. The display can be pulled out as little as 20-inches allowing full unrestricted use in a corridor or

passage that narrow such as found in an equipment or radio van mounted on a Humvee. There is no other

display with keyboard offering that compact footprint.

The CCI family is designed to meet rugged industrial standards and includes a solid milled aluminum front panel,

lightweight 5052-H32 aluminum construction and locking stainless hardware throughout. The drawer is held

closed by two captive thumb screws. Friction slides are included standard. Friction slides assure the drawer

stays where you put it and doesn’t randomly slide in and out of the rack in the back of a moving vehicle. The

CCIR-17 is ideal for mounting in a transit case or moving vehicle for adverse environments that would destroy

lesser displays.

The 17-inch display offers 1280 x 1024 native resolution, 380nit brightness, 1000:1 native contrast, and 80

degree viewing angle.

The display is provided with 1.1mm soda lime glass with an ITO conductive EMI filter and an additional 1.1mm

soda lime glass overlay with sputtered anti-reflective (AR) coating. Both pieces of glass are optically bonded to

each other and to the front of the display for superior viewing and ruggedness. A 3mm copper bus bar around

the entire glass stack-up provides grounding. The contrast is enhanced to approximately 1300:1 with this

ITO/Anti-Reflective glass stack-up.

The Aspect Ratio for the display is 5:4. The Pixel Pitch for the 17-inch display is .264 x .264mm. The display

offers 16.7 million colors (True Color). The display provides multiple signal input options including aRGB and

DVI-D.

The display offers a high quality advanced scaling controller with a Genesis chipset. The LCD controller offers

DVI-D and VGA (aRGB) inputs. This is a specifically ruggedized controller offering as standard conformal

coating with high shock/vibration and temperature extreme tolerances.

With only 24.6-inches of installed depth, the CCIR-17 is perfect for confined rack or transit case installations.

Adapters are provided for mounting in up to 37-inch deep racks. They are primarily designed for rugged

industrial applications but can be used in Industrial, Commercial, or Broadcast applications where reliability,

quality and long program life availability preclude the use of cheaply made imported units.

A choice of two sealed keyboards is offered providing either a Touchpad or Hula Point pointing device. Both

keyboards are NEMA-4 / IP65 rated sealed silicone rubber construction with tactile feedback and full travel for

comfortable typing. Carbon on gold contacts assures reliable operation. The keyboards are rated for 10 million

lifecycles per switch.

The Touchpad keyboard offers 97 keys with two mouse buttons while the Hula Pointer version offers 113 keys

with three mouse buttons. Both PS/2 and USB outputs are standard with the Hula Point version while the

Touchpad version is available only with USB output. The Touch Pad version is backlit. The keyboards are

completely sealed to meet IP-65 to prevent liquid ingress so coffee and Coke spills don't faze them. The

keyboards can be wiped down with a wet rag to clean any spills.

A built-in 4- port VGA KVM is available.

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.

Genesis Based LCD Controller

The LCD Controller is a key component in any display system and no expense has been spared in specifying

the Genesis controller used in the CCIR-17. This is a long life revision controlled industrial grade component.

The Genesis chip set is the current gold standard for LCD controllers. The controllers support 3x8-bit 16.7

million colors at up to 1600x1200 scaled to 1280x1024 native panel resolution. Refresh rates of 60Hz for UXGA

and SXGA with higher refresh rates for lower resolutions available. Computer input signals of VGA, SVGA,

XGA, SXGA, WXGA and UXGA are supported. DVI inputs supports up to1600x1200 60Hz signals. This

ruggedized industrial grade controller is 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.

MTBF for the controllers is in excess of 200K hours.

The controller will provide input scaling of virtually any input signal to scale the image to the 1280x1024 native

LCD panel resolution. They provide for PC, Apple and Sun input resolutions.

Friction Slides

Rugged General Devices friction slides have been specified. Ball bearing slides are a weak point in any

rackmount keyboard design and the use of friction slides negates those problems. Using friction slides allows

the keyboard to stay at the position you place it without the use of troublesome lock-outs. Friction slides also

have a very high tolerance for dust and dirt that typically destroys ball bearing slides in very short order.

Ultra high quality milled aluminum Jonathon slides are optionally available as specified.
