Configuring Communication
All control for a MVP-5200i touch panel is established through a NetLinx Master. Communication
between the MVP and the Master consists of using either Wireless Ethernet (DHCP, Static IP) or USB.
References to Ethernet in this manual focus on the use of Wireless Ethernet via the MVP’s WiFi Card.
In the example below (FIG. 15), three MVP-5200i devices are shown at varying distances from the two
WAP gateways. As with any other WAP network, the gateways are spaced so as to allow a maximum
wireless coverage for the three devices.
When initially installing the MVP-5200i, some basic configuration items, including network settings and
NetLinx settings, will need to be set. For more information, refer to the Protected Setup Pages section on
page 61.
Before commencing, verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master and
Modero panel-specific firmware. Verify you are using the latest versions of AMX’s
NetLinx Studio and TPDesign4 programs.
