Overview
The MVP-TDS Table Top Docking Station (
FG5965-10
) extends the functionality
of the wireless MVP panel (when resting on a flat surface). The MVP-TDS is
compatible with both MVP touch panel models (MVP-7500 and MVP-8400).
• Place the MVP panel onto the MVP-TDS to recharge its batteries and
maintain continuous control of your integrated technology.
• The adjustable station creates just the right viewing angle for any
situation.
• Attach a keyboard or mouse using the docking station's rear USB ports.
This connection facilitates surfing the Web by using the G4 Computer
Control application.
The MVP-TDS utilizes an innovative locking mechanism. The electromagnet
"holds" the panel to the MVP Support Cradle and allows the mounted MVP to
achieve optimum viewing angles via tilting. The Security Release pushbutton
turns-off the electromagnet for easy removal of the MVP panel.
An optional accessory for the MVP-TDS is an MVP-BP Battery Pack that can be
recharged from either of the two rear compartments on the Docking Station or
from within the MVP panel.
