5 Configuration
The CP640 has been preloaded with factory default configurations, or optionally a custom OEM-specific
configuration, to ensure easy start-up and commissioning. To support the diversity of applications, the control
panel is easily configured on demand. Accessing configurable settings can be accomplished in three ways:
• Display Menu
• CANplus
TM
Software Suite and CANplus
TM
Config Kit
• CANplus
TM
Software Suite and a USB drive
5.1 Display Menu
Most commonly accessible parameters can be changed onsite or in a facility by navigating the display using the
soft keys to find the appropriate menu page and data field. The available menu items are dependent upon the
current access level (see the Menu Tree section for available menu items). Easy to follow menu navigation
diagrams are located throughout the user manual and accompany each section which describes a configurable
operation or setting.
5.2 CANplus TM Software Suite and CANplus TM Config Kit
In situations where multiple units must be reconfigured, or in the case of a single unit which requires complete
reconfiguration, using the CANplus
TM
Software Suite, which is proprietary configuration software, is highly
recommended. The software suite is meticulously maintained and regularly updated. These free updates include
software enhancements and new functionality, and they ensure compatibility with evolving technologies. Please
see the Resources section at www.cattron.com/cp640 .
The CANplus
TM
Config Kit (Part Number 010-6750-01) includes the following:
• An adapter harness that connects to the panel’s engine interface connector
• An AC power supply
• A USB to CAN bus hardware adapter
With this kit, a panel’s configuration can be read from the panel or written to the panel via CAN bus. During read
or write operations, the panel must be the only CAN bus device. Using the included adapter harness ensures
proper operation during configuration read or writes.
5.3 CANplus TM Customizer Software Suite and a USB Drive

The CP640 introduces the ability to import and export configurations using a USB drive, avoiding the need to
purchase and have onsite a CANplus
TM
Config Kit as well as the need to disconnect the panel from the engine.
The panel’s USB port can be accessed by simply removing the four front faceplate screws. The USB port
location, shown in the following figure, is protected by a water-tight rubber plug.
