Modero Wireless Touch Panel with Intercom

Overview

The AMX MVP-9000i-XX Modero Wireless Touch Panel is a mobile device that 
communicates with a NetLinx Master via a standard 802.11a/b/g Wireless 
Access Point. Panel to panel communication is enabled via a full duplex VoIP 
intercom interface with SIP integration. The MVP-9000i utilizes a 9" Color Active 
LCD to display a 800 x 480 pixel image using over 16.7M colors, offers control 
via four programmable capacitive touch buttons and a capacitive touch 
directional pad in addition to its touch screen, and features programmable 
firmware that can be upgraded via the device’s mini-USB port. The MVP-9000i 
comes in black (MVP-9000i-GB, 

FG5967-01

) and white (MVP-9000i-GW, 

FG5967-02

).

Connector Locations

With the unit facing you, the microSD card slot (for loading and saving files such 
as photos), the mini-AB USB port (for programming and downloading firmware) 
and the DC power jack are located on the lower left side of the device. The 
connector for the Table Docking Station is located on the bottom of the device. 
The MVP-9000i may be operated while docked in a Table Docking Station or 
Wall Docking Station, connected via the included power supply, or through 
battery power.
The MVP-9000i supports an Ethernet over USB driver for panel downloads and 
firmware updates through its mini-USB port instead of through a standard 
Ethernet port. The mini-USB port may also be used, with an adaptor, with USB 
memory sticks and USB headphones.

Note: 

The mini-USB port cannot be used to power the device or charge the 

battery. Operation and charging must be done through the Docking Station 
connector or through the power jack.

Warning

Although firmware upgrades can be done over wireless Ethernet; it is 

strongly recommended that firmware KIT files be transferred over a direct USB 
connection and only when the panel is connected to a power supply. If battery
