Touch Panel Accessories
Overview
The following section outlines and describes both the included accessories and other AMX equipment
available for both the Video and Video/RGB models of touch panels.
NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box (FG2254-11)
The NXA-AVB/RGB Ethernet/RGB Breakout Box allows any of AMX’s VG-Series Modero Touch
Panels to accept and display both RGB or HDTV Component signals directly from an external source.
Through this single connection point, the 12”, 15” and 17” VG-Series Modero panels experience
comprehensive connectivity for audio/video distribution, power, Ethernet connectivity, and RGB. FIG. 2
shows the NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box.
The NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box is available either separately or as part of AMX’s exclusive RGB
Kit (NXA-RGBKIT). The RGB Breakout Box (combined with the panel’s internal NXA-RGB interface
card) allows the Modero to accept and display high-bandwidth and high-quality RGB and HDTV
Component video signals. The NXA-AVB/RGB stands out amongst all previous AMX Breakout Boxes
in that it is firmware upgradeable, feeds high quality video signals via RJ-45 cables, and provides
keyboard and mouse pass-through functionality via the rear USB connector.
When working with firmware, it is important to note that version 1.xx of firmware
should only be loaded onto box’s using 1.xx series firmware. The version 2.xx
firmware should only be loaded onto box's running 2.xx series firmware.
To confirm the box’s current firmware version, you can either navigate to the BOB
Version field on the RGB Adjustment page or launch NetLinx Studio and open the
Online Tree tab.
Modero-VG touch panel firmware 2.60.
27 or higher is required to download v2.xx
firmware into the break out box.
