MXA-MP and MXA-MPL Programming
Overview
The MXA-MP Modero X Series Multi Preview and MXA-MPL Multi Preview Live are touch panel accessories that
display still images or an HD digital video stream on Modero X Series touch panels. The MXA-MP accepts analog or
digital video inputs and converts them into up to 10 regularly refreshed JPEG preview images.
The MXA-MPL accepts analog or digital video inputs over HDMI and converts them to a video stream. Both devices
make it easy for users to identify quickly what is currently being displayed by up to 10 source devices.
Verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master and Modero firmware, as well as the
latest version of NetLinx Studio and TPD4.
For more information on the MXA-MP and MXA-MPL, such as firmware upgrades,
please refer to the MXA-MP/MPL Operation Reference Guide, available at
