Overview

The NXA-BEZP-435xx is a kit solution that allows the NXD-435 touch panel to be
installed in portrait mode, where the vertical dimension of the touch screen is larger
than the horizontal, instead of its traditional landscape mode. The NXA-BEZP-435 is
available in black (NXA-BEZP-435-BL, FG2262-12) or white (NXA-BEZP-435-WH,
FG2261-13).
Note: Use of the NXD-435 in portrait mode requires the latest versions of the
TPDesign4 application and of the AMX NXD-435 landscape mode firmware, version
XX.XX.XX or higher. Both are available for download from www.amx.com.

the display if not previously programmed.

Installation of the NXA-BEZP-435

The NXD-435 can be installed either directly into the (optional) CB-TP5I Rough-In Box
or another solid surface environment, using either solid surface screws or the included
locking tabs for different mounting options. For more information, please refer to the
NXD-435 User Manual, available at www.amx.com.
The NXD-435 is contained within a clear outer housing known as the back box
(FIG. 3). This back box is not removed when installing the device into a wall or into a
Rough-In Box.

Removing the Bezel

In order for the NXD-435 to be used in portrait mode, the existing bezel must be
removed and replaced with the bezel from the Portrait Bezel Kit. Because the device is
installed against a wall, the bezel must be removed carefully to prevent the two prongs
Ethernet 10/100 port
at the top of the device from being broken. To remove the bezel:

Installing the NXD-435 into a wall in Portrait Mode

Unlike most AMX touchpanels, the NXD-435 comes with a clear plastic backbox
(FIG. 3) designed to attach the panel to most standard wall materials. This backbox
has a locking tab on three of the four faces (missing only on the face containing the
space for the connections) to help lock the backbox to the wall. These locking tabs are
only extended AFTER the backbox is inserted into the wall.
WARNING: When installing the backbox, make sure that the assembly is in the correct
position and in the correct place. Once the locking tabs are extended and locked into
place, removing the backbox may be difficult without having access to the back of the
wall or causing damage to the wall.
Note: In order to guarantee a stable installation of the NXD-435, the thickness of the
wall material must be a minimum of .50 inches (1.27cm) and a maximum of .875
inches (2.22cm).
