Products
An NV9000 network is constructed and operated according to the requirements of the NV9000
router control system. Configuration and control of the routers is entirely within the scope of
NV9000-SE Utilities, although you can use CRSC to designate IP addresses. See
CR Series Ether-
net Setttings on page 19.
Figure 12-5 shows the ways a “clean and quiet” router can be connected:
Figure 12-5. CQX Network
At present, the CQX connections are limited. One CQX router with a local (or captive) CQX panel
or a remote CQX panel can exist on any subnet. (You can have more than one subnet, however.)
At present there is little to configure other than the IP address of the router or the remote panel
module.
Software
CRSC (Compact Router System Configurator) is a configuration and monitoring tool for compact
routers and remote panels. Refer to the CRSC User’s Guide for details. CrConfig (a precursor to
CRSC) is no longer supported.
Benefits
The CR Series Compact Routers offer these benefits:
• Miranda performance and quality.
• Very simple operation.
• Low cost.
• Small form factor.
• Easy migration to larger systems.
The Routers
The routers are slim (35–57mm or 1.38ð–2.25ð) and mechanically similar, differing principally in
the number and type of connectors. The fronts of all the 1RU routers are the same except for their
legends and the fronts of all the 2RU routers are the same except for their legends.
The 3Gig, HD, SD, AES, and analog video routers have BNC connectors. The analog audio routers
have DB25 connectors (and fans). The machine control routers have RJ-45 connectors.
Figures 12-6 through 12-16 show front and rear views of the routers.
