Page 11: Introduction
Each panel is sold only as part of a CV10 Kit which includes both a panel and an NXA-AVB/ETHERNET Audio/Video Breakout Box (FG2254-10). This box facilitates the installation and distribution of video (either Composite or S-Video), data (via Ethernet), and audio to Modero touch panels located up to 200 feet (60.96 m) from the breakout box.
Page 12 This gives the user the ability to launch digital music from a PC, cruise the Internet, check and respond to E-mail, open software files, and launch applications. Anything you can do on your PC can be accomplished through these panels.

NXA-AVB/ETHERNET, NetLinx Master, and the network. Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET connectors and cables The inputs and outputs on the breakout box are separated into front and rear connectors. The rear connectors are used to input external signals. The front connectors are used to communicate signals between the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET and a target Modero panel.
Page 20: Wiring The Nxa-Avb/Ethernet For Unbalanced Audio
Most domestic audio equipment has unbalanced audio inputs and outputs. This means that the audio output (left, right, or mono) appears on a single wire, and is referenced to "0 V" or "Ground". Typical connectors used are RCA "phono" connectors, DIN plugs/sockets, and 0.25" (6.3mm) or 3.5mm jack plugs/sockets.

Step 1: Remove the existing NXT Outer Housing 1. Carefully detach all connectors from the rear of the touch panel and then gently place the touch panel LCD facedown onto a soft cloth to expose the under-side of the base (FIG. 18). This step helps prevent scratching of the LCD.
Page 32: Step 2: Install The Compact Flash Memory Card Upgrade
7. Tilt the LCD panel back up to gain better access to the Tilt Bracket cover plate. 8. In a single motion, carefully pull both the Tilt Bracket cover plate and outer housing up and then out (away from the LCD panel) to expose the internal circuit board (FIG. 20).
Page 33 4. Remove the new CF memory card from it’s anti-static bag. 5. Firmly grip the sides of the new CF memory card and insert it firmly into slot opening (with the arrow facing towards the pins) until the contact pins are completely inside the flash card and it is then securely attached to the pin sockets.

If the back box is removed incorrectly, these speaker wires can become disconnected and damaged. 6. Carefully lift-off the back box housing and angle it over to the side of the unit where the wires are connected to the circuit board.
Page 38: Nxt-Bp Power Pack (Fg2255-10)
The NXA-BASE/1 Kit contains a single NXT-BP battery and one battery base. The NXA-BASE/1 (FIG. 27) is a Modero accessory that allows an NXT-CV10 touch panel to function off the charge from a single internally connected NXT-BP battery. The base provides both power and battery information to the panel via the panel interface connector.

Ex: If the signal strength is high but the link quality is low then the cause of the link degradation is noise. However, if the signal strength is low and the link quality is low the cause would simply be signal strength.

802.1x authentication server is not available. PSK connections are more secure than WEP and are simpler to configure since they implement dynamic keys but share a key between the WAP and the panel (client). Refer to the Configuring a Wireless Connection section on page 59 for further details on these security options.

LEAP does not use client (panel) or server (RADIUS) certificates and is therefore one of the least secure EAP security methods but can be utilized successfully by implementing sufficiently complex passwords.

Page 137 TTLS (EAP Tunneled Transport Layer Security) was an authentication method, like PEAP, that does not use a client certificate to authenticate the panel. This method is more secure than PEAP in that it does not broadcast the identity of the user. The setup, although similar to PEAP, differs in the following areas: An anonymous identity MUST be specified until the secure tunnel between the panel and the Radius server is setup to transfer the real identity of the user.

Text Area Input Masking can be used to limit the allowed/correct characters that are entered into a text area.

A data stream encrypted with WEP can still be intercepted or eavesdropped upon, but the encryption makes the data unintelligible to the interloper. The strength of WEP is measured by the length of the key used to encrypt the data. The longer the key, the harder it is to crack.
