When done, complete the insertion of the remaining housing latches. 4. Verify that the notches along the bottom of the plastic battery slot separator strip also fit into the three provided alignment holes on the circuit board. 5. Firmly press down around the entire rim of the outer housing to snap the cover back into place. Be careful not to pinch the antenna wire in the housing. 6. Use a grounded Phillips-head screwdriver to insert and re-secure the two housing screws removed in Step 1. 7. Insert any available batteries back into the battery compartment.

Apply downward pressure to the traction grooves on the Battery Compartment cover and slide it back towards the metal plate to reinstall the cover. Once the wireless CF card has been installed, be careful not to disconnect or damage the antenna when subsequentally opening the MVP’s housing. MVP-7500/8400 Modero Viewpoint Wireless Touch Panels Configuring Communications Configuring Communications Communication between the MVP and the Master consists of using either Wireless Ethernet (DHCP, Static IP) or USB. References to Ethernet in this manual focus on the use of Wireless Ethernet via the MVP’s WiFi Card. Before commencing, verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master and Modero panel-specific firmware. Verify you are using the latest versions of AMX’s NetLinx Studio and TPDesign4 programs. USB input devices must be plugged into the USB connectors on the docking stations before the units are powered-up. Modero Setup and System Settings AMX Modero panels feature on-board Setup pages. Use the options in the Setup pages to access panel information and make various configuration changes. Accessing the Setup and Protected Setup Pages 1. Press down and hold both the bottom, left pushbutton and down on the directional pad simultaneously for 3-5 seconds. This opens the Setup page. FIG. 13 Setup Page Access buttons Setup Page Access buttons: Press and hold simultaneously for 3-5 seconds to access the Setup pages Press and hold for 6 seconds to access the Calibration page. 2. Press the Protected Setup button. This invokes a keypad for entry of the password to allow access to the Protected Setup page. Enter 1988 (the default password), and press Done to proceed.

Press the Device Number field to open the Device Number keypad (FIG. 14). FIG. 14 Protected Setup page Enter a unique Device Number assignment for the panel, and press Done to return to the Protected Setup page. The Device Number range is 1 - 32000, the default is 10001. 2. Press Reboot to reboot the panel, and apply the new Device Number. Wireless Settings Page - Wireless Access Overview Hot Swapping Hot swapping is not an issue on these panels as the card is installed within the unit and cannot be removed without first removing the housing. In the case of DHCP, there must be a DHCP server accessible before the fields are populated. If the SSID (Network Name) and WEP fields have not previously been configured, the Wireless Settings page will not work until the panel is rebooted. Before selecting Ethernet as the Master Connection Type you must setup the parameters of the wireless card. The Wireless Access Point communication parameters must match those of the pre-installed wireless CF card inside the MVP. The MVP touch panels allow users to connect to a wireless network through their use of the pre-installed AMX 802.11g wireless interface card to communicate with a Wireless Access Point (WAP) such as the NXA-WAP200G). The WAP communication parameters must match those of the pre-installed wireless interface card installed within the panel. This internal card transmits data wirelessly using the 802.11x signals at 2.4 GHz. For a more detailed explanation of the new security and encryption technology, refer to the section of the document entitled: Appendix B -Wireless Technology section on page 185. For more information on utilizing the AMX Certificate Upload Utility in conjunction with the EAP security, refer to the section of the document entitled: Appendix B - Wireless Technology section on page 185. MVP-7500/8400 Modero Viewpoint Wireless Touch Panels Configuring Communications Configuring a Wireless Network Access When working with a wireless card, the first step is to configure wireless communication parameters within the Wireless Settings page. This page only configures the card to communicate to a target WAP (such as the NXA-WAP200G), it is still necessary to tell the panel which Master it should be communicating with. This "pointing to a Master" is done via the System Settings page where you configure the IP Address, System Number and Username/Password information assigned to the target Master. Step 1:...
