MVP-WDS Wall/Flush Mount Docking Station - Black (FG5965-11)
MVP-WDS Wall/Flush Mount Docking Station - Silver (FG5965-21)
This device is not given a unique device number which would ordinarily appear within the Online Tree tab of NetLinx
Studio. It appears as a battery base below the target panel which it is a part of as seen below in FIG.39.
The only way to upgrade the firmware of these accessory items is to send the accessory’s firmware through a target
panel. Its this panel’s device number which is entered within the Send to NetLinx Device transfer dialog in Studio.

Step 1: Prepare the Docking Station for firmware transfer via USB

Before beginning with this section:
Verify the MVP is securely attached to the docking station and communicating properly.
Verify that the panel is communicating from the mini-USB port to the Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM).
1. Complete the instructions for configuring the NetLinx Master for IP communication found in the Upgrading the
Modero Firmware via the USB portsection on page 40.
2. After the panel powers-up, press and hold the two lower buttons on both sides of the display for
3 seconds to continue with the setup process and proceed to the Setup page.
3. Press the Batteries button to open the Batteries page (FIG. 40).
