Page 189: Panel Calibration
Modero panels are factory setup with specific demo touch panel pages. The first splash screen that appears indicates the panel is receiving power, beginning to load firmware, and preparing to display the default touch panel pages. When the panel is ready, the AMX Splash Screen is replaced by the Initial Panel Page (FIG. 87).
Page 190: Testing Your Calibration
Panel Calibration FIG. 89 Touch Panel Calibration Screens If the calibration was improperly set and you cannot return to the Calibration page (through the panel’s firmware); you can then access this firmware page via G4 WebControl where you can navigate to the Protected Setup page and press the Calibrate button through your VNC window.
Page 191: If Calibration Is Not Working
Panel Calibration If Calibration Is Not Working Cycling power to the panel should provide a baseline calibration for the particular touch panel. Re- calibrate the panel. MVP-7500/8400 Modero Viewpoint Wireless Touch Panels...

Page 193: Appendix A: Text Formatting
Appendix A: Text Formatting Text Formatting Codes for Bargraphs/Joysticks Text formatting codes for bargraphs provide a mechanism to allow a portion of a bargraphs text to be dynamically provided information about the current status of the level (multistate and traditional). These codes are entered into the text field along with any other text.
Page 194: Text Area Input Masking
Appendix A: Text Formatting Text Area Input Masking Text Area Input Masking may be used to limit the allowed/correct characters that are entered into a text area. For example, in working with a zip code, a user could limit the entry to a max length of only 5 characters; with input masking, this limit could be changed to 5 mandatory numerical digits and 4 optional numerical digits.
Page 195: Input Mask Ranges
Input Mask Ranges These ranges allow a user to specify the minimum and maximum numeric value for a field. Only one range is allowed per field. Using a range implies a numeric entry ONLY. Input Mask Ranges Character Meaning Start range End range Range Separator An example from the above table:...

Page 199: Appendix B - Wireless Technology
Appendix B - Wireless Technology Overview of Wireless Technology  802.11b/2.4 GHz and 802.11a/5 GHz are the two major WLAN standards and both operate using radio frequency (RF) technology. Together the two standards are together called Wi-Fi and operate in frequency bands of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz respectively. The 802.11b specification was the first to be finalized and reach the marketplace.
Page 200: Terminology
The certificate authority (CA) is a trusted external third party which "signs" or validates the certificate. When a certificate has been signed, it gains some cryptographic properties. AMX supports the following security certificates within three different formats: ...
Page 201: Wpa2
To resolve problems with WEP, the Wi-Fi Alliance released WPA (FIG. 91), which integrated 802.1x, TKIP and MIC. Within the WPA specifications, the RC4 cipher engine was maintained from WEP. RC4 is widely used in SSL (Secure Socket Layer) to protect internet traffic. FIG.
Page 202: Eap Authentication
Appendix B - Wireless Technology EAP Authentication EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an Enterprise authentication protocol that can be used in both a wired and wireless network environment. EAP requires the use of an 802.1x Authentication Server, also known as a RADIUS server. Although over 40 different EAP methods are currently defined, the current internal Modero 802.11g wireless card and accompanying firmware only support the following EAP methods (listed from simplest to most complex): ...
Page 203: Eap Communication Overview
EAP Communication Overview EAP Authentication goes a step beyond just encrypting data transfers, but also requires that a set of credentials be validated before the client (panel) is allowed to connect to the rest of the network (FIG. 93). Below is a description of this process.
Page 204: Configuring Modero Firmware Via The Usb Port
From the Start menu in Windows XP, open the Network Connections dialog (Start > Settings > Network Connections > Local Area Connection). Look for the Local Area Connection reading Local Area Connection, AMX USB Device Link and double- click on it to open the Local Status.

PVK (Private Key file) Uploading a Certificate File Install the latest AMX USB LAN LINK driver onto your computer by installing the latest versions of either TPDesign4 or NetLinx Studio2. This USB driver prepares your computer for proper communication with the panel.
Page 206 Appendix B - Wireless Technology Once the list is complete, click on the File drop-down menu and select the Save option. This launches a Save dialog to assign a name to the current list of addresses and then save the information as a TXT (text) file to a known location.
Page 207: Appendix C: Troubleshooting
To keep the battery from being damaged from operating at too low a level, the firmware places it into a protected state. The panel must have the latest firmware. If it doesn’t, the firmware can be found at www.amx.com Dealers/ Tech Center > Firmware Files.> Modero.
Page 208: Panel Isn't Appearing In The Online Tree Tab
Appendix C: Troubleshooting Panel Isn’t Appearing In The Online Tree Tab Verify that the System number is the same on both the NetLinx Project Navigator window and the System Settings page on the device. Verify the proper NetLinx Master IP and connection methods entered into the Master Connection section of the System Settings page.
