MB-TP17 

Universal VESA Mounting Box for 17" Modero Panels

The MB-TP17 Universal VESA™ Mounting Kit (

FG033-50

) allows the 17" 

Modero touch panels to be mounted on a pivot/pitch, extendable arm, pole, 
ceiling, under-cabinet mount, or any other variation of VESA-compliant mounting 
hardware.

The MB-TP17 kit includes everything the installer needs to mount a 17” Modero 
panel (wall mount version) to any standard 75mm x 75mm VESA mounting 
hardware (purchased separately). The kit includes a metal back box, a plastic 
rear cover (with cable routing hole (which accepts the included strain-relief 
grommet) and other required hardware (see Specifications table for details). .

Overview - Installing the MB-TP17 Kit 

Upgrading the original Modero back box with the MB-TP17 Universal VESA 
Mounting Kit involves three main processes:

Removing the original Modero back box, and installing the new 

MB-TP17 back box.

Threading cables through the strain relief grommet opening in the rear 

plastic cover.

Finalizing the installation of the NXD (with MB-TP17 back box and 

cables) into the plastic cover, securing both components, and finalizing 
the strain relief grommet installation.

Removing the Original Modero Back Box

1.

Detach all connectors from the side of the touch panel.

2.

Remove the magnetic faceplate from the NXD unit by carefully 
gripping the faceplate and pulling outwards.

3.

Place the LCD face-down on a soft cloth to expose the back of the 
panel and prevent scratching of the LCD.

4.

Unscrew the headphone nut from the headphone jack.

5.

Remove the metal connector overlay by using a grounded Phillips-
head screwdriver to turn the two screws and slide the metal 
connector overlay away from the back box housing.

6.

Remove the four pan-head housing screws from the rear of the NXD 
unit (FIG. 2). These screws secure the back box to the internal panel 
casing.   

7.

Lift the back box housing to separate it from the internal panel casing.

Note

:

 

Do not remove the four panel securing screws.

 These screws secure the 

LCD to the metal casing.

Installing the MP-TP17 Back Box

1.

Unscrew the four pan-head Housing screws (#8-32) from the 
MB-TP17 rear plastic cover.

2.

Gently place the MB-TP17 back box over the internal panel casing 
(with the cable routing hole on the right-side of the panel).

3.

Re-install and secure the four pan-head Housing screws into their 
pre-drilled holes along the edges of the MB-TP17 back box (FIG. 2) 
and secure them using a grounded Phillips-head screwdriver.

4.

Replace the Connector Overlay back over the connector opening and 
align the connector locations.

5.

Re-secure the metal connector overlay (using a grounded Phillips-
head screwdriver) and re-secure the nut on the headphone jack.  

Cable Installation for the MP-TP17 Back Box

1.

Connect the cable connectors (RJ-45, Ethernet, and any other 
audio/video wiring) to their respective locations along the side of the 
touch panel.

2.

Use the tie-wrap (45-0009A) to wrap the cables together inside the 
VESA Mount enclosure. This cable tie is used to insure the cable will 
not pull through or work itself through the new larger strain relief 
grommet (45-0032-01) over time.

3.

Thread the incoming cables through the hole on the rear plastic cover 
and then through the strain relief grommet.

4.

Slide the grommet along the cable and securely insert it into the 
opening on the rear plastic cover (FIG. 4).

Finalizing the Installation

1.

Gently place the rear plastic cover over the NXD panel (with LCD and 
MB-TP17 back box).

2.

Insert the protruding cables, coming out from the opening on the rear 
plastic cover, into the open strain relief grommet.

3.

Allow some slack/length on these cables as a service loop. This ser-
vice loop provides enough cable length so you can later remove the 
NXD (with connected cables) from the rear plastic cover.
