CP 3809 Expansion Panel Operation
The CP 3809 can be used as a companion to the CP 3808 Switcher Control Panel or to the CP 3830 Control Panel. Each button
on the CP 3809 panel represents a destination, with the display line above providing status. Up to five CP 3809 panels can
be associated with a CP 3808 or CP 3830, providing up to 40 outputs for control. Figure 6−155 illustrates a control panel array
for CP 3809 control of 16 outputs.
For multi−bus control the desired source can be selected on the CP 3808/3830; the CP 3809 would then be used to select the
destination(s). The selected output button will glow “high” green to show that it will be affected by the switch. To complete
the switch, the operator presses the TAKE button on the CP 3808/3830. (This action does not affect the output being controlled
by the CP 3808 or CP 3830.)

Dynamic Assignment of Outputs to Expansion Panel Buttons
The process of assigning outputs to the expansion panel is the same as assigning the output to be controlled by the CP
3808/3830, except that the desired button is pressed on the expansion panel (rather than TAKE on the main panel):
1. On the CP 3808 or CP 3830, press MENU. Then select an output.
For details concerning this procedure, see page 6−65 (CP 3808). or page 6−76 (CP 3830).
2. On the expansion panel, press the appropriate destination key.
To check the new assignment, press MENU.
Note: Only the output button positions not defined in the CP Output Set may be changed. See page 5−79.
