By selecting URL, the System Number field becomes read-only (grey) because the panel pulls this value directly from the communicating target Master, virtual or not. A Virtual Master system value can be set within the active AMX software applications such as NetLinx Studio, TPD4, or IREdit.

If the panel does not appear within the OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace window of NetLinx Studio, check to make sure that the NetLinx Master System Number from within the Device Addressing dialog is correctly assigned.

6.Enter a username and password (into their respective fields) if the target Master has been previously secured.
