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 169.
