System sends out a request to the panel to respond and completes the communication (turning the System Connection icon green). Step 5: Confirm and View the current AMX USB device connections Use the CC-USB Type-A to Mini-B 5-wire programming cable (FG10-5965) to provide communication between the mini-USB Program port on the touch panel and the PC.
Page 66: Wireless Settings Page - Wireless Access Overview
Configuring Communication A mini-USB connection is only detected after it is installed onto an active panel. Connection to a previously powered panel which then reboots, allows the PC to detect the panel and assign an appropriate USB driver. Verify this direct USB connection (Type-A on the panel to mini-USB on the panel) is configured properly using the steps outlined in the previous two sections.
Page 67: Configuring A Wireless Connection
Ethernet Communication from the panel can be direct (using an Ethernet cable) or indirect (through the NXA- PCI80211G AMX Wireless Card (FG2255-04) communicating to a Wireless Access Point (WAP) such as the NXA-WAP200G). In determining the Ethernet method of communication, the panel will always default first to the direct Ethernet communication.

Do not alter any of these remaining greyed-out fields in the IP Settings section. Once the panel is rebooted, these values are obtained by the unit and displayed in the DNS fields after power-up.
Page 69: Step 2: Configuring The Card's Wireless Security Settings
The card should be given the SSID used by the target WAP. If this field is left blank, the unit will attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use AMX as their assigned SSID value.
Page 70: Configuring The Modero's Wireless Card For Secured Access To A Wap200G
Configuring Communication The remaining Wireless Settings fields are then greyed-out and become read-only. All NXA-WAP200Gs are factory-shipped as an unsecured WAP with no WEP encryption. The WAP200G initial Status page will display the status of both the WEP and WPA (both disabled). Verify the fields in the IP Settings section have been properly configured.
Page 71 The card should be given the SSID used by the target WAP. If this field is left blank, the unit will attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use AMX as their assigned SSID value.
Page 72 Configuring Communication  This keyboard allows you to enter a Passphrase (such as AMXPanel) and then AUTOMATICALLY generate a WEP key which is compatible only among Modero panels. The code key generator on Modero panels use the same key generation formula. Therefore, this same Passphrase generates identical keys when done on any Modero because they all use the same Modero-specific generator.
Page 73: Configuring Multiple Wireless Moderos To Communicate To A Target Wap200G
Verify the fields within the IP Settings section have been properly configured. Refer to Step 1: Configuring the Panel’s Wireless IP Settings section on page 55 for detailed information.

Configuring Communication Even though the Host, Gateway, Primary DNS, Secondary DNS, and Domain fields appear on the two separate System Settings and Wireless Settings pages; the information populating these fields is identical. If the information within one of these fields is altered, the change is reflected on both pages within the altered field.
Page 75: Step 2: Choosing A Master Connection Mode Setting
Step 2: Choosing a Master Connection Mode Setting There are three Ethernet MODE settings used in the Master Connection section of the System Settings page. URL is the most common method.  Master Connection MODE options: • URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the address that defines the route to a file on the Web or any other Internet facility.
Page 76: Master Connection - Virtual Master Communication Over Ethernet
Verify the panel has been configured to communicate either through an Ethernet cable (connected from either the panel to a valid Ethernet Hub) or wireless to the Wireless Access Point. Launch NetLinx Studio 2.x (default location is Start > Programs > AMX Control Disc > NetLinx Studio 2 > NetLinx Studio 2).
Page 77 By selecting URL, the System Number field becomes read-only (grey) because the panel pulls this value directly from the communicating target Master (virtual or not). A Virtual Master system value can be set within the active AMX software applications such as: NetLinx Studio, TPD4, or IREdit.
