RJ-45 Connections
Use a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable to provide communication between
the touch panel, NXA-AVB, and the NetLinx Master.
Ethernet 10/100 Base-T Connector
The Ethernet cable (connected to the rear of the Table Top Panels or to
the side of the Wall Panel) provides 10/100 network connectivity between
the panel and the NetLinx Master.
Modero Setup and System Connection
1. Carefully remove the panel from the shipping box, peel the protective
plastic cover from the LCD and apply power to the panel.
2. From below the LCD, press the grey Front Setup Access button for 6
seconds (passing-over the Setup page) to access the Calibration
setup page and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. Press the grey Firmware Setup Access button for 3 seconds to open
the Setup page and touch the on-screen Protected Setup button.
4. Enter the panel password into the keypad. Factory default is 1988.
5. Press the Device Number field to open the on-screen Device
Number keypad and enter a value for the panel (default is 10001).
6. Press Done when finished and press the on-screen Reboot button
to cycle power to the panel.
7. Repeat step 3 to access the Protected Setup page and touch the
System Connection button to open the System Connection page
(FIG.6).
Setting up the System Connection Parameters
There are two choices for communication with the system Master:
Ethernet or ICSNet. The default method used for Master connection is
Ethernet.
First - Setup the Master Connection
To configure Ethernet communication:
1. Under the Master Connection column, toggle the ICSNET/Ethernet
field until the choices cycle to Ethernet.
2. Press the Mode button:
URL - In this mode, enter the System Number (zero for an unknown
System Number) and the IP/URL of the Master (Master Port Number
is defaulted to 1319).
Listen - In this mode, add the Modero’s IP Address into the URL List
of the Master (using NetLinx Studio). This mode sets the Modero
panel to "listen" for broadcasts from the Master (using the panel IP
from its URL list).
Auto - In this mode, enter the System Number of the NetLinx Master.
This mode instructs the Modero to search for a Master that uses the
same System Number (assigned within the Master Connection
section) and that resides on the same Subnet.
To configure ICSNet Communication:
1. Under the Master Connection column, toggle the ICSNET/Ethernet
field until the choices cycle to ICSNET.
2. All other settings are disabled and do not apply.
Second - Setup the IP Settings (Panel Communication)
Toggle the on-screen DHCP/Static field to select the appropriate setting
for your system.
DHCP - With this setting, other settings are greyed-out and do not
apply. Typically the Host Name can be left blank. These fields
(“pulled” from the Ethernet connection) are filled-in by the panel after
the unit is rebooted.
Static IP - With this setting, you must enter the network information
as provided by your Network Administrator.
Remaining System Connection Parameters
1. Set the speed of the Ethernet connection to the panel by selecting
from either: Auto (default), 10 Half Duplex, 10 Full Duplex, 100 Half
Duplex, or 100 Full Duplex.
2. Enter a valid username and/or password (if the target Master is
secured).
3. Press the Back button and then press the on-screen Reboot button
to save the changes and cycle power.
NOTE: Press the on-screen Reboot button after any changes are
made to the touch panel’s Communication Parameters.
Setting up a Modero Wireless Connection
Refer to the 12" and 15" Modero Touch Panel Series Instruction Manual
for detailed wireless connectivity setup and configuration information.
