MVP-9000i 9" Modero® ViewPoint® Touch Panel with Intercom
When an IP address is assigned to the usb0 interface on the device, Windows XP will make an attempt to assign an IP
address to the corresponding interface on the Windows side. Usually, this IP address is a random value and in a totally
different subnet. The user may set the Windows network properties for the Ethernet over USB interface to have a specific
address whenever the Windows XP system detects an MVP-9000i with an assigned IP address.
In Windows XP:
1.
From the Windows XP desktop, click on
Start > Settings > Network Connections
. This opens a window listing
the currently active network connections.
2.
Select the connection that is specific to
AMX USB Device Link
.
3.
Right click and select
Properties
.
4.
In the Local Area Connection 3 Properties window (FIG. 36) under the
General
tab, select
Internet Protocol (TCP/
IP)
and click on
Properties
.
5.
In the new window:
Select
Use the following IP Address
.
Under
IP address
, provide an IP address (ensure that it is in the same subnet as the IP address given to the
usb0 interface on the MVP-9000i).
Under
Subnet mask
, set the suitable subnet mask. Make sure that the host machine has the same subnet mask.
(The subnet mask for USB connection is
255.255.0.0
, which is not user-configurable.)
Click on
OK
'
6.
In the
Local Area Connection 3 Properties
window, click on
OK

The user should now be able to run any TCP/IP application between the two systems.
Configure a Virtual NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio
A Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM) is used when the target panel is not actually connected to a physical NetLinx Master.
In this situation, the PC takes on the functions of a Master via a Virtual NetLinx Master. This connection is made by
either using the PC’s Ethernet Address (via TCP/IP using a known PC’s IP Address as the Master) or using a direct mini-
USB connection to communicate directly to the panel.
Before beginning:
1.
If using the mini-USB connection, verify the panel has been configured to communicate via USB within the
System
Settings
page and that the USB driver has been properly configured. Changing the Master Connection type requires
a reboot before the change takes effect.
