30 MVP-7500/8400 Modero Viewpoint Wireless Touch Panels

USB

NetLinx Studio can be setup to run a Virtual Master where the PC acts as the Master by supplying its own IP Address for

communication to the panel. For a PC to establish a USB connection with a Modero panel, it must have the AMX

USBLAN driver installed.

Prepare your PC for USB communication with the panel

If you haven’t already done so, download and install the latest versions of NetLinx Studio2 and TPDesign4 (from

www.amx.com), and restart your PC.

Configure the panel for USB communication

The first time the panel is connected to the PC it is detected as a new USB hardware device, and the correct (panel-

specific) USBLAN driver must be associated to it manually. Each time thereafter, the panel is recognized as a unique

USBLAN device, and the association to the driver is handled automatically.

1. Connect the PS4.4 power connector to the panel (or docking station if the panel is already installed) to supply

power.

2. Press and hold the two lower external pushbuttons on either side of the panel simultaneously for 3 seconds to access

the Setup page (see FIG. 13 on page 19).

3. In the Protected Settings page, select System Settings to open the System Settings page (FIG.26).

4. Toggle the blue Type field (from the Master Connection section) until the choice cycles to USB.

Refer to the System Settings Pagesection on page 54 for information about the fields on this page.

5. Press the Back button to return to the Protected Setup page.

6. Press Reboot to save changes and restart the panel.

7. When the panel powers up and displays the first panel page, insert the mini-USB connector into the Program Port

on the panel.

It may take a minute for the panel to detect the new connection and send a signal to the PC (indicated by a green

System Connection icon).

The AMX USBLAN driver is included with both NetLinx Studio2 and TPDesign4, and

can also be downloaded as a stand-alone application from www.amx.com.
