AMX Modero Viewpoint MVP-5200i Installation Manual page 2

The MVP-5200i is the first G4 device to support a new Ethernet over USB driver for
panel downloads and firmware updates. This means that the device can connect to
the Internet through its mini-USB port instead of through a standard Ethernet port.
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.
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
Operation/Reference Guide, available at www.amx.com.
Turning on the MVP-5200i
The MVP-5200i uses one of two methods to turn it on. These use either the
navigation wheel or the touchscreen. To learn which method works for your panel:
1.
Press any of the navigation wheel's compass points and hold until the AMX
splash screen appears on the touchscreen.
2. If the navigation wheel does not respond, press the touchscreen and hold until
the AMX splash screen appears on the touchscreen.
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 Operation/Reference Guide, 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
access point (AP).
Configuring the Wireless Card for Secured Access to the AP
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Select Wireless Settings.
2. Press the Site Survey button to access the Wireless Site Survey page.
Select a WEP secured AP from within the Wireless Site Survey page, as 

displayed in the Security field, and press the Connect button to display the
Static WEP Settings popup.
4. Enter the key length and values for matching the AP and press Save.
5. The Access Point MAC Address field will now be filled.
6. Press Back to return to the Protected Setup page.
NOTE: Consult the MVP-5200i Modero ViewPoint Touch Panel Operation/
Reference Guide for manually entering the SSID information.
Upgrading Firmware
The MVP-5200i uses a 5-pin CC-USB (Type A) to Mini-B 5-Wire programming cable
(FG10-5965) for programming, firmware updates, and touch panel file transfer
between the PC and the target device. If a programming cable is not available, it may
be purchased from www.amx.com.
Before beginning the upgrade, verify that the device is powered and the Type-A end
of the USB connector is inserted and secure the PC's USB port. The panel must be
powered On before connecting the mini-USB connector to the panel. To guarantee
that the upgrade is not interrupted by power loss, connecting the device to a power
source, such as putting it in a Table Charging Station, before beginning the upgrade
is highly recommended.
For more information, refer to the Upgrading Firmware section of the MVP-5200i
Modero Viewpoint Touch Panel Operation/Reference Guide, 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.
Battery Life and Replacement
The battery powering the MVP-5200i is designed for upwards of 300 deep discharge
rechargings. Regular shallow rechargings will extensively increase expected battery
life, and the device should be stored in either a Table Charging Station or Wall
Charging Station when not in use to keep it at an optimum charge. The battery has
reached its effective end of life after it can no longer hold more than a 70 percent
charge.
Proper Battery Maintenance
NOTE: To insure maximum performance and reliability of your AMX Wireless
Touch Panel, please insure that a full charge is performed every 3 months if
not used regularly. If a battery is left uncharged beyond this time frame, it may
result in premature battery lifespan degradation and will require replacement.
