  • Page 22 Accessories Installing the MVP-WCS-52 Since the Wall Charging Station is intended to be affixed to a wall or other permanent structure, care must be taken to ensure its proper installation to prevent potential damage to the MVP-5200i placed within. Other than wall installation tools, the only tool required for this installation is a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
  • Page 23 Accessories To assist with wiring, and to avoid mechanical stresses on the wire and the mechanism of the Wall-Mounted Charging Station, the top right knockout is preferred for use. 3. Run the power cable through the knockout into the box. Pull out about six inches (15.25cm) of cable into the box to facilitate installation of the MVP-WCS-52.
  • Page 24 Accessories Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector. Turn the screws clockwise to secure the wires in the connector. Do not over-torque the screws; doing so can bend the seating pins and damage the connector. 7.

The Metal Rough-In Box is used in conjunction with the Wall Charging Station’s plastic back box.
  • Page 27 Accessories Other MVP-WCS-52 installations The Wall-Mounted Charging Station is designed to be installed in various different locations, such as into the face of a wooden podium or the top of a table. Depending upon the ability to wire it to a power source, Wall-Mounted Charging Stations may be installed on vertical or horizontal surfaces composed of such materials as wood, brick, and glass.

    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.

    Appendix A: Text Formatting Refer to the following Send_Commands for more detailed information: • - Sets the input mask for the specified addresses. (see the ^BIM section on ^BIM page 123). • subcommand - sets the input mask of a text area (see the ^BMF ^BMF section on page 125).
  • Page 186: Input Mask Output Examples

    Appendix A: Text Formatting A keyboard entry using normal text entry is straightforward. However, once an input mask is applied, the behavior of the keyboard needs to change to accommodate the input mask's requirement. When working with masks, any literal characters in the mask will be "skipped" by any cursor movement, including cursor, backspace, and delete keys.

    Appendix A: Text Formatting URL Resources A URL can be broken into several parts. For example, with the URL http://www.amx.com/company-info- home.asp, this URL indicates that the protocol in use is http (HyperText Transport Protocol) and that the information resides on a host machine named www.amx.com. The image on that host machine is given an assignment (by the program) name of company-info-home.asp (Active Server Page).

    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 189: Terminology

    Appendix B: Wireless Technology Terminology 802.1x IEEE 802.1x is an IEEE standard that is built on the Internet standard EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol). 802.1x is a standard for passing EAP messages over either a wired or wireless LAN. Additionally, 802.1x is also responsible for communicating the method with which WAPs and wireless users can share and change encryption keys.
  • Page 190 Appendix B: Wireless Technology Short for Wired Equivalent Privacy, WEP is a scheme used to secure wireless networks (Wi-Fi). A wireless network broadcasts messages using radio which are particularly susceptible to hacker attacks. WEP was intended to provide the confidentiality and security comparable to that of a traditional wired network. As a result of identified weaknesses in this scheme, WEP was superseded by Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), and then by the full IEEE 802.11i standard (also known as WPA2).
  • Page 191 Appendix B: Wireless Technology WPA2 Also know as IEEE 802.11i, this is an amendment to the 802.11 standard specifying security mechanisms for wireless networks. The 802.11i scheme makes use of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) block cipher; WEP and WPA use the RC4 stream cipher.
  • Page 192: 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): EAP-LEAP (Cisco Light EAP)

    Appendix B: Wireless Technology 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.

    Appendix B: Wireless Technology AMX Certificate Upload Utility The Certificate Upload utility gives you the ability to compile a list of target touch panels, select a pre- obtained certificate (uniquely identifying the panel), and then upload that file to the selected panel. This application must be run from a local machine and should not be used from a remote network location.
  • Page 196 Appendix B: Wireless Technology 7. Navigate to the Add IP Address field at the bottom-right of the interface and enter a value of 1 greater than the virtual USB IP Address. For example: If the virtual USB IP Address is 10.0.0.1, then add an address for the directly connected panel of 10.0.0.2.
