MVP-WDS-9 

Wall/Flush Docking Station

Overview

While charging the MVP-9000i, the Power-over-Ethernet MVP-WDS-9 Wall/
Flush Mount Docking Station provides fast, reliable wired Ethernet 
communication to the touch panel. In addition, the MVP-WDS-9 employs a 
unique, anti-theft locking mechanism to keep the touch panel safe and secure. 
With a push of a button, the panel glides forward for simple removal and 
transport. The Wall/Flush Docking Station is available in either white (

FG5967-

13

) or black (

FG5967-12

).    

The features of the MVP-WDS-9 include: 

Full charging of a docked MVP-9000i in approximately 5 hours

Touch panel password feature for security

Integrated docking alignment guides for easy docking

Specifications

The MVP-9000i touch panel remains locked in the MVP-WDS-9 until unlocked 
by the user. This may be done by pressing the 

Security Release

 button and 

then entering an appropriate password (please refer to the 

MVP-9000i 

Operation/Reference Guide

, available from 

www.amx.com

, for more 

information). The station ejects the MVP-9000i device top first (FIG. 2). The 
device uses two neodymium rare-earth magnets to secure the MVP-9000i to the 
cradle when the touch panel is angled forward. 

Unlocking the Touch Panel

Once placed within the Wall Docking Station, the MVP-9000i remains secured 
until the user unlocks it. To release the touch panel from the Wall Docking 
Station:

1.

Press the 

Security Release

 button.

2.

A password keypad will pop up on the MVP-9000i screen. Enter a 

password in the password keypad and press 

Enter

.

3.

Wait for the Wall Docking Station to pivot the touch panel away from the 
wall.

4.

The device will remain in the ejected position until the MVP-9000i is 
removed. Wait until the device’s ejection door has completely withdrawn 
before re-installing the MVP-9000i.

Recharging

To recharge the MVP-9000i:

1.

Slide the device into the Wall Docking Station cradle bottom-first and make 
sure the device is fully seated in the Docking Station. 

2.

Press the top of the MVP-9000i back until it clicks. The touch panel is now 
locked into the Docking Station, and the station will automatically charge 
the device’s battery. 

3.

To release the touch panel, press the 

Security Release

 button, enter the 

password (if activated), and wait for the Wall Docking Station to pivot the 
touch panel away from the wall.
