Installing and Charging Batteries in the Docking Stations

The MVP-TDS and MVP-WDS Docking Stations recharge any installed MVP-BP batteries and provide USB input device interaction to the connected MVP panel through the two USB connectors on the docking stations. Both docking stations are firmware upgradeable and provide battery feedback information to the MVP (battery status information is accessible through the MVP Batteries page).

Before using these docking stations, verify they have been installed with the latest firmware. Refer to Refer to the MVP-7500/8400 Operation/Reference Guide (available online at www.amx.com) for more information.

Once an MVP is connected to a docking station, charging is first applied to any MVP-BP batteries found within the panel’s rear battery compartment and then to any batteries inserted within the docking station.
