Video Touch Panels (FIG. 1) are the industry’s first widescreen mini-touch panels and are available only through AMX. NXD-CV5 (front view) (FG2261) FIG. 1 Sample 5" Video Touch Panel This is the first 5" diagonal Widescreen Color Active video-capable touch panel in the control and automation industry. This Color Video (CV) panel displays NTSC/MPAL/PAL/SECAM video formats within variable sized windows up to 800 x 480. It includes a built-in microphone, speakers, audio/headphone connector, and six NetLinx programmable pushbuttons. This panel currently supports Intercom functionality which allows two communicating CV5 panels (the NetLinx Master must control all intercom and paging) to transmit half-duplex audio signals over a network and be used as an Intercom system. Audio and Video is delivered to the panel via a CAT5 connection from an optional NXA-AVB/ETHERNET Breakout Box. The NXD-CV5 panel (FG2261) is shipped, by default with a Trim Ring containing buttons. The user can later choose to alter the Faceplate/Trim Ring configuration of the CV5 touch panel by choosing the install the included No-Button Trim RIng. Key features common to both panels include: CV5 panels are based on the latest display technology and support AMX's 4th generation (G4) graphics which provide higher brightness, richer colors, and deeper contrast. The new G4 graphics technology is supported by the latest AMX TPDesign4 Touch Panel Design program. CV5 panels display eye-catching images and full-motion video on a large 16:9 image format, while providing a wide 90-degree top-to-bottom viewing angle. CV5 panels feature a front panel light sensor, motion sensor, IR receiver and a Sleep/Setup Access combo button. CV5 panels support AMX Computer Control, which enables remote viewing and control of any networked computer directly from the panel. This gives the user the ability to launch digital music from a PC, cruise the Internet, check and respond to E-mail, open software files, and launch applications. Anything you can do on your PC can be accomplished through these panels. 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel 1 Introduction CV5 panels feature programmable firmware that can be upgraded via either the Ethernet port or the mini-USB port.

Either a balanced (+, -, and GND) or unbalanced (+ and GND) audio signal can be connected to this output. • Video In BNCs: Feeds either Composite/S-Video Luma or S-Video Chroma signals into the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET. This feed is then redirected out to a Modero panel through the front Audio/Video CAT5 port. • ETHERNET: 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel RJ-45 connector routes data to the G4 touch panel through the front Ethernet port. These connections use a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable to provide communication between the target touch panel, breakout box, and NetLinx Master. 9 CV5 Touch Panel Accessories • PWR: 2-pin mini-Phoenix connector that connects to a 12 VDC-compliant power supply. This port can be used to provide power to a Modero panel by sending it through the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET (rear power connector through to the front power connector). Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET for Unbalanced Audio Most domestic audio equipment has unbalanced audio inputs and outputs. This means that the audio output (left, right, or mono) appears on a single wire, and is referenced to "0 V" or "Ground". Typical connectors used are RCA "phono" connectors, DIN plugs/sockets, and 0.25" (6.3mm) or 3.5mm jack plugs/sockets. Unbalanced audio is adequate for most domestic environments and for line-level signals in a typical broadcast studio. Problems may occur if the signals are carried over long distances, especially if the source and destination have separate main supplies. Use the following wiring drawing (FIG. 8) to configure an unbalanced audio connection. GND ININ+ Left Channel GND IN- Right Channel Unbalanced IN (Jumper IN- to GND) Unbalanced IN (Jumper IN- to GND) IN+ AUDIO IN MIC OUT GND OUTOUT+ Microphone Unbalanced OUT FIG. 8 Wiring the rear AUDIO IN and MIC OUT for use with Unbalanced Audio When using unbalanced audio for the AUDIO IN connector (FIG. 8), the "-" and the "GND" terminals should be connected together and then connected to the GND of the unbalance audio signal. When connecting to an unbalanced audio input from the MIC OUT connector (FIG. 8), wire the "+" terminal to the signal input, and the "GND" terminal to the signal ground. Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET for Balanced Audio Professional audio equipment will often use balanced audio inputs and outputs, usually on 3-pin "XLR" connectors. A balanced audio signal consists of a pair of wires carrying the audio signal in anti-phase with each other (if one wire carries a positive voltage, the other carries an equal and opposite negative voltage). The advantage of balanced audio over unbalanced audio is its ability to reject external interference added as the signal is carried over the wire. The receiving equipment takes the voltage difference between the two wires as the input signal. Interference will usually get added to both wires equally, and so gets cancelled by the receiving equipment. 10 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel CV5 Touch Panel Accessories The 3 wires used in a typical XLR lead are often referred to as Ground, Live (Hot) and Return (Cold). "Live" and "Return" carry the "in-phase" and "out-of-phase" versions of the audio respectively. The pins of the XLR plug/socket are as follows: • X = Ground • L = Live (Hot) • R = Return (Cold) When connecting the MIC OUT connector to a balanced audio input (FIG. 9), use all three audio terminals (+, -, and GND), then connect the "+" terminal to the "live" signal, the "-" terminal to the "return" signal, and the "GND" terminal to the ground signal.

This back box is not removed when installing the NXD into a CB-TP5 Rough-In Box. The back box is only removed to gain access for the replacement of the internal components. INSTALLER: LEAVE A GAP BETWEEN THE STUD AND ROUGH-IN BOX MOUNTING TABS TO ACCOMMODATE THE DRYWALL or SHEETROCK. This gap allows the installation of the drywall or sheetrock after the CB-TP5 Rough-In Box has been installed. The CB-TP5 is an optional metallic box that is secured onto a stud/beam in a pre-wall setting (where no walls are present). Installation procedures and configurations can vary depending on the installation environment. This section describes the installation procedures for the most common installation scenario. The most important thing to remember when mounting this rough-in box is that the NXD-CV5 Mounting Tabs must lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock (FIG. 17). Refer to SP-2261-01 for detailed installation dimensions. It is recommended that you cut out the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation drawings so that you can make any necessary cutout adjustments. The wiring knockouts on the left side will be used for the NXD-CV5 Wall Mount panel connectors, so always secure the rough-in box to the stud using the Stud Mounting Holes on the right side of the box. 1. Rest the right Stud Mounting tabs onto the stud (keeping the knockouts on the left). Be sure to leave enough of a gap between the stud and NXD Mounting tabs to accommodate the installation of the drywall or sheetrock after the rough-in box has been mounted. Ultimately, the Mounting Tabs should lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock. 2. Fasten the CB-TP5 rough-in box to the stud through the holes on the right Stud Mounting tabs (FIG. 17), using either nails or screws. 3. Remove the wiring knockouts from the left side of the rough-in box (CB-TP5) (FIG. 17) to accommodate the cables being threaded through to the NXD touch panel. 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel 19 Installation Stud Mounting tabs Wiring knockouts (6) (must be located on left side) Stud NXD Mounting tabs (should lie flush against the outside of the wall) Drywall or sheetrock FIG. 17 CB-TP5 rough-in box components Remember that when mounting this rough-in box, the NXD mounting tabs must lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock. 4.

Use the power requirements information (page 2) to determine the power draw. The incoming PWR and GND wires from the power supply must be connected to the corresponding locations within the PWR connector. This unit should only have one source of incoming power. Using more than source of power to the panel can result in damage to the internal components and a possible burn out. Apply power to the panels only after installation is complete. Preparing captive wires You will need a wire stripper and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the captive wires. Never pre-tin wires for compression-type connections. 1. Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of insulation off all wires. 2. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector (according to the wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section). 3. Tighten the screws to secure the wire in the connector. Do not tighten the screws excessively; doing so may strip the threads and damage the connector. Wiring a power connection To use the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector with a 12 VDC-compliant power supply, the incoming PWR and GND wires from the external source must be connected to their corresponding locations on the connector (FIG. 23). 1. Insert the PWR and GND wires on the terminal end of the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix cable. Match the wiring locations of the +/- on both the power supply and the terminal connector. 2. Tighten the clamp to secure the two wires. Do not tighten the screws excessively; doing so may strip the threads and damage the connector. 3.

Modero connection information NetLinx Master’s connection information MAC Address from panel is factory set to a unique address FIG. 32 System Connection page There are 2 possible Master Connection Types available: USB or Ethernet. A USB connection type is a direct connection from the panel’s mini-USB port to a corresponding USB port on the PC (acting as a Virtual Master). An Ethernet connection type involves indirect communication from the panel to a Master via an Ethernet connection to the network. 34 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel Configuring Communication It is recommended that firmware KIT files only be transferred over a direct connection and only when the panel is connected to a power supply. I The mini-USB connector MUST be plugged into an already active panel before the PC can recognize the connection and assign an appropriate USB driver. This driver is part of both the NetLinx Studio and TPDesign4 software application installations. Configuring and Using USB with a Virtual Master NetLinx Studio can be setup to run a Virtual Master where the PC acts as the Master by supplying its own IP Address for communication to the panel. The PC is first equipped with the USB driver, the panel is then configured for USB communication, and then Studio is configured to act as the Master. For a personal computer to establish a connection to a Modero panel via USB, the target computer must have the appropriate AMX USB driver installed. This installation is bundled into the latest TPDesign4 software setup process or can be downloaded independently from the main Application Files page on www.amx.com. Step 1: Setup the Panel and PC for USB Communication 1. If you do not currently have the latest version of TPDesign4, navigate to www.amx.com > Tech Center > Downloadable Files > Application Files > NetLinx Design Tools section of the website and locate the AMX USB Driver executable (AMX USBLAN Setup exe). 2. Download this executable file to a known location on your computer. 3. Launch the Setup.exe and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation. Step 2: Confirm the Installation of the USB Driver on the PC The first time each AMX touch panel is connected to the PC it is detected as a new hardware device and the USBLAN driver becomes associated with it (panel specific). Each time thereafter the panel is "recognized" as a unique USBLAN device and the association to the driver is done in the background. When the panel is detected for the first time some user intervention is required during the association between panel and driver. 1. After the installation of the USB driver has been completed, confirm the proper installation of the large Type-A USB connector to the PC's USB port, and restart your machine. If the panel is already powered, continue with steps 3. The panel MUST be powered and configured for USB communication before connecting the mini-USB connector to the panel’s Program Port. 2.

FIG. 38 Using USB for Virtual Master communication Configuring a Wired Ethernet Connection It is necessary to tell the panel which Master it should be communicating with. This "pointing to a Master" is done via the System Connection page where you configure the IP Address, System Number and Username/Password information assigned to the target Master. Until those parameters are configured, your Connection Status icon will remain red (indicating there is no current connection to a Master). 40 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel Configuring Communication Step 1: Configure the Panel’s Wired IP Settings This panel has only one method of communicating to a target Master over the Internet: Wired (direct Ethernet connection) (wireless communication is not available on the CV5). You can only configure the connection parameters through the System Connection page. This type of communication can be established either via either a Dynamic IP Address (DHCP) or via a pre-reserved Static IP Address (typically provided by your System Administrator). IP Settings section - Configuring a DHCP Address over Ethernet 1. Select Protected Setup > System Connection (located on the lower-left) to open the System Connection page. 2. Locate the IP Settings section of this page. Even though the Host, Gateway, Primary DNS, Secondary DNS, and Domain fields appear on the two separate System Connection and Secondary Connection 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. Example: Domain is altered on Secondary Connection page, the value is then also changed within the Domain field of the System Connection page. 3. Toggle the DHCP/Static field (from the IP Settings section) until the choice cycles to DHCP. DHCP will register the unique MAC Address (factory assigned) on the panel and once the communication setup process is complete, reserve an IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway values from the DHCP Server. 4. Press the optional Host Name field to open a Keyboard and enter the Host Name information. 5. Press Done after you are finished assigning the alpha-numeric string of the host name. 6.

Navigate to the Master Connection section of this page to begin configuring the communication parameters for the target Master. Step 2: Choose a Master Connection Mode Setting There are three Ethernet MODE settings used in the Master Connection section of the System Connection 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. In this system, the panel acts as a "Client" and the Master acts as a Server (in that Clients attach to it). • LISTEN sets the Modero panel to "listen" for broadcasts from the Master (using the panel IP from its URL list). In this system, the panel acts as a "Server" (in that Clients attach to it) and the Master acts as a "Client". • AUTO is used to instruct the Modero to search for a Master that uses the same System Number (assigned within the Master Connection section) and resides on the same Subnet as itself. In this case, the Master has its UDP feature enabled. This UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a protocol within the TCP/IP protocol suite that is used in place of TCP when a reliable delivery is not required. This UDP enabling is done through a Telnet session on the Master. Refer to the particular NetLinx Master manual for more detailed information. Step 3: Configure an Ethernet Connection Type When using Ethernet as your communication method, the NetLinx Master must first be setup with either a Static IP or DHCP Address obtained from either NetLinx Studio or your System Administrator.

Refer to the your particular NetLinx Master Instruction Manual for detailed setup procedures. Calibrate and prepare the communication pages on the Modero panel for use. Refer to the Panel Calibration section on page 31. Refer to the NetLinx Studio version 2.x or higher Help file for more information on uploading files via Ethernet. Configure your panel for a direct connection. Refer to the Configuring Communication section on page 33 for more information. It is recommended that firmware Kit files only be transferred over a direct Ethernet connection and only when the panel is connected to a power supply. The process of updating firmware involves the use of a communicating NetLinx Master. The required steps for updating firmware to a Modero panel are virtually identical to those necessary for updating Kit files to a NetLinx Master (except the target device is a panel instead of a Master). Refer to either your Master’s literature or Studio 2.x Help file for those procedures. A touch panel which is not using a valid username and password will not be able to communicate with a secured Master. If you are updating the firmware on or through a panel which is not using a username or password field, you must first remove the Master Security feature to establish an unsecured connection. Upgrading the Modero Firmware via the USB port Before beginning with this section, verify your panel is both powered and the Type-A USB connector is securely inserted into the PC’s USB port. The panel must be powered-on before connecting the mini-USB connector to the panel. Establishing a USB connection between the PC and the panel, prior to installing the latest NetLinx Studio and TPDesign4 applications will cause a failure in the USB driver installation. This driver must first be saved to the PC as part of the new NetLinx Studio and TPDesign4 application installations. Step 1: Configure the panel for a USB Connection Type 1. After the installation of the USB driver has been completed; confirm the proper installation of the large Type-A USB connector to the PC's USB port, and restart your machine. 2.

Wake Panel On Motion Sense: The Wake Panel Sensitivity relates to the sensitivity of the motion sensor to detect motion and wake the panel accordingly. • Toggle the Enable/Enabled button to either active/inactive this feature: - Enable - activates this feature. Activating this feature reactivates the panel from a panel timeout (sleep) mode. - Enabled - (illuminated when selected) deactivates this feature and makes the panel use the specified Display Timeout value set on the Setup Page. • Use the Wake Panel UP/DN buttons to alter the sensitivity value. - Range = 0 - 100. • The horizontal WAKE PANEL SENSITIVITY bargraph indicates the current motion sensitivity value associated with waking the panel from a timeout. There is a relationship between the motion sensor and the panel sleep feature. If a panel is set to Sleep Mode, there is a time delay before the motion sensor is activated to detect motion. By creating a time delay to the detection, this allows a user to set the sleep mode and leave the panels’ detection range. In this way, the panel doesn’t awake immediately after the sleep is active and you move away. Making the most of the Automated Brightness Control feature (DIM Mode) Please follow the steps below to set up Automated Brightness Control: 1. Set the lighting conditions in the room to maximum (turn On all the lights). 2. Set the Maximum Panel Brightness, from the Setup page, to a comfortable level. Sitting in front of the panel, you should be able to comfortably see someone sitting behind the panel without being “blinded” by the panel. 3. Open the Sensors Setup page (FIG. 70) from the Protected Setup menu section. 4. Move around the panel and block the direct or indirect light from the room fixtures with your body. Take note of the drop in the lighting level being detected by the panel in response to your movements. 5. Set the Maximum brightness of the Dimmer (Dim Mode Max Level) below the detected drop. This will make sure that the panel does not react to variations in the lighting conditions of a normal working environment. The maximum (upper level) of the dimmer should be at least 15% lower than the maximum detected level. 6. Set the minimum lighting conditions in the room (not complete darkness but the minimal lighting setup, unless complete darkness is an “operational option” for the room). 80 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel Firmware Pages and Descriptions 7.

This will make sure that the panel does not react to variations in the lighting conditions of a normal working environment. The minimum (lower level) of the dimmer should be at least 10% lower than the minimum detected level (ex: lower dimmer level at 30% if the detected lighting of the room is at 40%). Other Settings The Other Settings button provides a menu to select either the Image Caching Page section on page 82 or the Password Settings Page section on page 84. Select either option to access that page. FIG. 71 Other Settings menu 5" Modero Widescreen Touch Panel 81 Firmware Pages and Descriptions Image Caching Page The Image Caching page (FIG. 72) configures the allocation of memory for image caching. The G4 graphics engine caches images to decrease load time of previously viewed images. RAM caching is always enabled, and images (both static and dynamic) are stored in the RAM cache as they are viewed. The size of RAM cache is automatically configured to take into account available memory versus memory that may be needed by the panel later. As the RAM cache approaches its maximum size, the oldest items in the cache may be discarded to make room for newer items. If Flash caching is enabled, dynamic images that would have been discarded will actually be moved to Flash, since it is typically faster to retrieve images on Flash than across a network (although it is slower than RAM cache). Note that since static images are already stored on Flash, they are never moved to the Flash cache, so Flash caching applies only to dynamic images. Images in Flash cache are moved back to RAM cache the next time they are viewed. As the Flash cache approaches its maximum size, the least recently used items may be discarded to make room for new items. FIG. 72 Image Caching Page The elements of this page include: Image Caching Page Elements Back: Saves all changes and returns to the previous page.
