IP Routing
The behavior of the wireless routing is largely dependent on the wired network interface. Although the panel
can be connected to two networks simultaneously it may only have one gateway. If the wired network was
successfully set up and a gateway was obtained; then the default route for all network traffic will be via the
wired network. In the event that the wired network was not configured, then the default route for all network
traffic will be via the wireless network. The wired network connection always takes priority.
As an example:
Imagine a panel connected to two networks A & B.
A
is the wired network and
B
is the wireless
network. If the Master controller is on either of these networks then it will be reached. However if
the Master controller is on a different network,
C
, then determining which network interface (wired
or wireless) that will be used is dependent on the gateway.
Hot Swapping
Hot swapping is not an issue on these panels as the card is installed within the unit and cannot be removed
without first removing the housing.
In the case of DHCP, there must be a DHCP server accessible before the fields are populated.
Ethernet Communication from the panel can be direct (using an Ethernet cable) or indirect (through the NXA-
WC80211GCF AMX Wireless Card communicating to a Wireless Access Point (WAP) such as the NXA-
WAP200G).
The Wireless Access Point communication parameters must match those of the installed
wireless CF card inside the panel.
In determining the Ethernet method of communication, the panel will always default first to the direct Ethernet
communication. If no direct connection is detected, the panel will first check to see if there is an installed
wireless interface card and then communicate to the WAP using the Wireless Settings assigned within the
Wireless Settings page. The WAP communication parameters must match those of the pre-installed wireless
interface card installed within the panel. These touch panels allow users to connect to a wireless network
through their use of the optional AMX 802.11g Wi-Fi CF card. The WAP communication parameters must
match those of the pre-installed wireless interface card installed within the panel. This internal card transmits
data wirelessly using the 802.11x signals at 2.4 GHz.
For a more detailed explanation of the new security and encryption technology, refer to the section of the
document entitled:
Appendix B - Wireless Technology
section on page 181.
Configuring a Wireless Connection
When working with a wireless card, the first step is to configure wireless communication parameters within
the Wireless Settings page. This page only configures the card to communicate to a target WAP (such as the
NXA-WAP200G),
it is still necessary to tell the panel which Master it should be communicating with
.
This "pointing to a Master" is done via the System Settings page where you configure the IP Address, System
Number and Username/Password information assigned to the target Master.
Step 1: Configure the Panel’s Wireless IP Settings
The first step to successfully setting up your internal wireless card is to configure the IP Settings section on the
Wireless Settings page. The section configures the communication parameters from the Modero panel to the
web.
Wireless communication using a DHCP Address
1.
Press the
Protected Setup
button (located on the lower-left of the panel page) to open the Protected Setup
page and display an on-screen keypad.
2.
Enter
1988
into the Keypad’s password field and press
Done
when finished.
3.
Press the
Wireless Settings
button (located on the lower-left) to open the Wireless Settings page.
Wireless communication is set within the IP Settings section of this page (FIG. 60).
If the SSID (Network Name) and WEP fields have not previously been configured, the
Wireless Settings page will not work until the panel is rebooted.
