Modero Panel Isn’t Appearing In The Online Tree Tab

1.Verify that the System number is the same on both the NetLinx Project Navigator window and the System Settings page on the Modero panel.

2.Verify you have entered the proper NetLinx Master IP and connection methods into the Master Connection section of the System Settings page.

MVP Can’t Obtain a DHCP Address

In requesting a DHCP Address, the DHCP Server can take up to a few minutes to provide the address.

1.Verify that the WAP is configured to match the MVP panel Network Name (SSID) field, Encryption, Default Key, and Current Key string.

Remember that the Passphrase generator on the panel does not produce the same Current Key if using the same passphrase on the WAP.

2.In NetLinx Studio, select Diagnostics > Network Address and verify the System number.

3.If the IP Address field is still empty, give the Modero a few minutes to negotiate a DHCP Address and try again.

My WEP Doesn’t Seem To Be Working

WEP will not work unless the same default key is set on both the panel and the Wireless Access Point (WAP).

For example: if you had your access point set to default WEP key 4 (which was 01:02:03:04:05) you must also set the Modero’s Default WEP key 4 to 01:02:03:04:05.

NetLinx Studio Only Detects One Of My Connected Masters

Each Master is given a Device Address of 00000.

Only one Master can be assigned to a particular System number. If you want to work with multiple Masters, open different instances of NetLinx Studio and assign each Master its own System value.

Example: A site has an NXC-ME260/64 and an NI-4000. In order to work with both units. The ME260 can be assigned System #1 and the NI-4000 can then be assigned System #2 using two open sessions of NetLinx Studio v 2.x.

Can’t Connect To a NetLinx Master

Symptom: I can’t seem to connect to a NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio 2.

Select Settings > Master Comm Settings > Communication Settings > Settings (for TCP/IP), and uncheck the "Automatically Ping the Master Controller to ensure availability".
