Seamless Wireless To Wired Swap - AMX MVP-9000i Operation And Reference Manual

Seamless Wireless to Wired Swap

The MVP-9000i's unique design allows for wireless as well as wired connectivity with the appropriate Table Docking
Station or Wall Docking Station. To prevent offline events when transitioning between wired and wireless connectivity,
the MVP-9000i allows for seamless swapping. For swapping to work correctly, the Wired (page 65) and WiFi (page 66)
network settings must be configured properly. The current connection mode to the master is indicated by the connection
icon in the upper right hand corner of the setup pages as well as in the Current Connection field in the System Settings
page under the Master tab.
Refer to the Miscellaneous MVP Strings section on page 135 for strings that are sent to the master when the panel is
docked and undocked.
Swapping between wired and wireless connections is only supported when the
Master Mode is set to URL. For more information, please refer to the System Settings
Page on page 64.
To swap from a wireless connection to a wired one, simply place the panel in a Table Docking Station or Wall Docking
Station. To swap from a wired connection to a wireless connection, you must first initiate an undock request. This can be
done with the undock button on the Docking Station, or with the Undock Panel button in the System & Panel Options
page (please refer to the System & Panel Options page on page 60). The swap will happen once a valid password is
entered (if enabled). If the panel does not swap to the master immediately, a Confirmation Dialog popup will notify the
user (FIG. 5). The user has the option to force an undock which will cause an offline event, or to cancel the undocking
and remain in the dock. If the swap is completed sometime after the popup is displayed, the popup will disappear
automatically. The popup will also disappear after a 15-second countdown.
FIG. 5 "Attempting to Undock" popup window
If an undock is initiated during a VoIP call or Dynamo session, pressing the Yes
button ends all VoIP calls in progress and Dynamo sessions.
After a successful swap from wired to wireless communication, if the panel is not removed from a Table Docking Station
after 30 seconds, the dock will automatically lock the latch and swap back to wired communication.
The firmware version of the Master controller must support swapping.
If the user does not want to use the mechanical latch on the TDS or utilize the swapping feature, the Table Dock Latch
button may be disabled or set to Off in the System & Panel Options page.
If an undock is initiated during a VoIP call or a Dynamo session, a warning popup will be displayed (FIG. 6), allowing
the user to proceed with the undock and disconnect sessions or calls, or cancel the undock
