VG-Series Modero Touch Panels
Introduction
AMX has taken a quantum leap forward with the release of their new VG-Series of Modero touch
panels. These panels offer streaming MPEG video, high-definition Component RGB input and display,
USB support for extended input devices, and panel programming via a mini-USB port.
The new G4 graphics and Video/RGB technology is supported by the release of the latest TPDesign4
Touch Panel Design Program. These video-capable panels support several video formats: NTSC,
SECAM, and PAL (Color Active (CA) panels don’t support video).
Multimedia Streaming Video Touch Panels (VG-Series)
Although these panels are similar to the 1200V models, in that they both share connectors for USB
communication and Audio/Video distribution; the VG-Series far exceed those panels by additionally
providing RGB Component video display, MPEG streaming technology, and pass-thru computer control.
These panels are capable of NTSC/PAL/SECAM video formats within variable sized video windows.
These VG-Series panels display HDTV Component video (fed from an external NXA-AVB/RGB
Breakout Box and then through an internal NXA-RGB card). In addition to composite video support, the
new VG-Series of panels now feature USB connectivity for mouse and keyboard, and pre-installed
antennas for all Table Top models.
Powered by a cutting-edge DSP core, the VG-Series has the muscle to handle digital streaming
(both video and audio), in wired or wireless configurations. These Moderos feature full support for
standard MPEG-2 streaming video as well as MP3 and AAC streaming audio.
The NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box (FG2254-11) facilitates the installation and distribution of video
(Composite and Component), data, audio, and pass-thru Computer Control to Modero touch panels
located up to 200 feet (60.96 m) from the NXA-AVB/RGB box.
The VG-Series of touch panels can be fitted for either Video (Composite) or RGB (Component) via the
use of two Kit configurations: Video Kit and RGB Kit. Each kit comes with its own group of standard
components that are specific to its configuration. Although a panel can be order with either of these kits;
a previously fitted Video Kit panel can be later upgraded to accept and display RGB Component via the
use of an RGB upgrade package called the NXA-RGBKIT (FG2255-11). This upgrade kit supplements
the existing Video fitted panel (FG225X-XXV) with such things as an internal NXA-RGB interface card
and an external NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box.
The Video Kit fitted units can accept either Composite or S-Video from standard video devices. These
Composite video panels include those listed below:
