AMX Modero Viewpoint MVP-5200i Installation Manual page 2

In addition to its speaker, the MVP-5200i also utilizes its mini-USB port as a
connector for standard headphones or headsets. These headphones must use
a mini-USB plug or adapter, such as the MVP-HP USB 1/8" Adapter, in order to
utilize this feature. While standard input/output headsets may be used in lieu of
headphones, the headset may only be used for output. While you may receive
sound from the headset, its microphone will not function. Always use the MVP-
5200i's microphone for receiving sound.
WARNING: Although firmware upgrades can be conducted over a wireless
Ethernet connection, transferring firmware KIT files over a direct USB
connection is recommended, and only when the panel is connected to a power
supply. If battery power or wireless connection fails during a firmware upgrade,
the panel flash file system may become corrupted.
Navigation Wheel
The MVP-5200i device uses a button wheel for commands made other than
through the touchscreen. This wheel, known as a navigation wheel, is located
in the upper right corner of the device. Used with the touchscreen, the
navigation wheel allows scrolling and adjusting by turning the wheel with a
thumb or finger and then pressing down on one of the wheel's compass points
for up, down, left, and right. The wheel is sensitive enough to adjust levels with
one-third of a rotation. The center of the navigation wheel is also a button: for
example, pressing down directly upon the wheel center could be used for the
equivalent of an "Enter" keystroke.
If the MVP-5200i needs to be shut down or reset for any reason, press and
hold down the wheel center button until the popup stating "panel shutting down"
appears or the screen goes dark. To turn it back on, press any of the wheel's
compass points and hold until the AMX splash screen appears on the
touchscreen. When in its Standby Power Mode, the MVP-5200i may only be
returned to its Awake state by touching the screen.
The navigation wheel also lights up depending upon the Power Mode it is in at
the time. The navigation wheel LED lights when the touch screen is on and
turns off when the touchscreen is off, with the exception of when the device is
charging. The flashing during recharging may be disabled via the device's on-
board Setup page.
For more information, please see the MVP-5200i Modero ViewPoint Touch
Panel User Manual, available at www.amx.com.
Accessing the Setup Pages
The MVP-5200i features on-board Setup pages. Use the options in the Setup
pages to access panel information and make various configuration changes.
To access the Setup pages, press the center button on the navigation wheel
and hold for three seconds. A popup screen opens that reads "Release button
now to enter the Setup Pages. Continue holding to enter Calibration."
Releasing the center button at that time opens the main Setup page.
For more information, refer to the Setup Pages section of the MVP-5200i
Modero ViewPoint Touch Panel User Manual, available at www.amx.com.
Accessing the Calibration Page
The Calibration page allows you to calibrate the touch panel for accurate button
selection.
1. Press and hold the center button on the navigation wheel until the
Calibration page opens. (This page may also be accessed through the
Protected Setup page.)
2. Press the crosshairs to calibrate the panel and return to the previous
page.
3. Always calibrate the panel before its initial use, and after downloading
new firmware.
Accessing the Protected Setup Page
The Protected Setup page provides secured access to advanced panel
configuration options, including communication and security settings. Enter the
factory default password (1988) into the password keypad to access this page.
Setting the Panel's Device Number
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Press the Device Number field to open the Device Number keypad.
2. Enter a unique Device Number assignment for the panel, and press Done
to return to the Protected Setup page. The Device Number range is 1 -
32000, and the default is 10001.
Configuring the Panel's Wireless IP Settings
The first step to successfully setting up the internal wireless card is to configure
the IP Settings section on the Wireless Settings page. This section configures
the communication parameters from the MVP panel to the web.

Wireless Communication Using a DHCP Address
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Select Wireless Settings. Wireless communication is set within the
IP Settings section of this page.
2. Toggle the DHCP/Static field (from the IP Settings section) until the
choice cycles to DHCP. This action causes all fields in the IP Settings
section other than Host Name to be greyed-out. Once the panel is
rebooted, these values are obtained by the unit and displayed in the DNS
fields after power-up.
NOTE: DHCP will register the unique MAC Address (factory assigned) on
the panel and once the communication setup process is complete, assign
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway values from the DHCP Server.
3. Press the optional Host Name field to open a Keyboard and enter the
Host Name information.
4. Press Done after you are finished assigning the alpha-numeric string of
the host name.
Configuring the Card's Wireless Settings
The second step of a successful setup of the wireless card is to configure the
Wireless Security section of the Wireless Settings page. This section
configures both the communication and security parameters from the internal
wireless card to the WAP.
Configuring the Wireless Card for Secured Access to the WAP
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Select Wireless Settings.
2. Press the Site Survey button to access the Wireless Site Survey page.
3. Select a WEP secured WAP from within the Wireless Site Survey page,
as displayed in the Security field, and press the Connect button to dis-
play the Static WEP Settings popup.
4. Enter the key length and values for matching the WAP and press Save.
5. The Access Point MAC Address field will now be filled.
6. Press Back to return to the Protected Setup page.
Consult the MVP-5200i Modero ViewPoint Touch Panel User Manual for
manually entering the SSID information.
Choose a Master Connection Mode
The panel requires the establishment of the type of connection to be made
between it and the master.
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Select System Settings.
2. Select Type to toggle between the Master Connection Types USB and
Ethernet.
A USB connection is a direct connection from the panel's mini-USB port
to a corresponding USB port on the PC (acting as a Virtual Master).
A Wireless Ethernet connection involves indirect communication from the
panel to a Master via a wireless connection to the network.
Upgrading Firmware
For the purpose of panel downloads, the MVP-5200i's download procedure is
not compatible with other AMX panel devices. This is due to the unique
configuration of the device.
The first major change from other AMX devices is that the MVP-5200i uses
dynamic Setup Pages for its displays. Instead of requiring a separate Setup
Page project built within TPDesign 4, the MVP-5200i uses only a single set of
Setup Pages for all of its supported resolutions.
To enable a single Setup Page project to support all resolutions, it will be
necessary to include images for the largest supported resolution with the Setup
Page project and to scale the images to fit for lower resolutions. This
modification would apply to state-level bitmaps and chameleon images,
whereas previously, image scaling has only applied to dynamic images.
For more information, refer to the Upgrading Firmware section of the MVP-
5200i Modero Viewpoint Touch Panel User Manual, available at
www.amx.com.
Cleaning the Touch Overlay, Case, and Navigation Wheel
Always use a clean cotton cloth and a spray bottle containing water or a
vinegar-based cleaner when cleaning the MVP-5200i, as alcohol-based
cleaners can damage the device. Do not directly spray the device: instead,
spray the cloth to clean the touch screen overlay and navigation wheel. Do
NOT use an abrasive of any type to clean the MVP-5200i, as this may
permanently damage or remove the device's finish.
