Control Panel Variations
Seven basic Control Panel assemblies are considered standard: 4-ME 35,
4-ME 25, 3-ME 35, 3-ME 25, 2-ME 35, 2-ME 25, and 1-ME 15. Each assembly
name identifies the number of MEs present and the number of source
selector buttons in each ME.
Two Control Panel Assembly orientations are possible, flat and curved. The
curved panel provides improved operator ergonomics. This orientation
raises the Control Panel height, so visibility of a monitor wall should be
considered prior to installation. An assembled Control Panel can be oper-
ated from a tabletop, or it can be installed into a cutout.
The Local Aux Stripe can be connected to the Control Panel support struc-
ture at a 45 degree angle, or it can be mounted separately in its own back-
splash cutout.
The following diagrams show some standard Control Panel assemblies. It
is also possible to create different Control Panel assemblies (for example, a
2-ME 35), since the parts are interchangeable. Specific information for non-
standard configurations is not included in this document.
Control Panel Cooling
The Kayenne Control Panel is externally powered and does not have
internal cooling fans. Electronics in the panel are convection cooled and
require free air movement. Do not install the panel into a sealed space.
CAUTION If the panel is mounted in a counter-top, do not enclose the lower portion of
the cutout. Leave the bottom open to allow passive air movement.
Truck and High Vibration Environment Considerations
The Kayenne Control Panel has several bolt and screw tightened compo-
nents. In high vibration environments these attachments could loosen over
time. Loctite Blue 242 or equivalent thread locking compound is recom-
mended for these environments. This compound is designed to lock
threaded components together during assembly, but permits them to be
loosened if necessary later using hand tools.
During Control Panel assembly, apply a drop of the locking compound to
the ends of the threads of the support beam bolts, to the screws connecting
the cutout lip brackets to the support beams, and to the bolts attaching the
