AMX Firmware version G4 Leaflet

Quick Start Guide

12" and 15" 

Modero Color Video Touch Panels (Firmware version G4)

For more detailed installation, configuration, programming, file transfer, and 
operating instructions, refer to the 12" and 15" Modero Touch Panel Series 
Instruction Manual, available on-line at www.amx.com. 

The 12" (NXT/NXD-CV12) and 15" (NXT/NXD-CV15) Video panels are 
4th generation graphics touch panels that provide richer colors and crisper 
contrast than any panels currently on the market. 

Modero tilt panels now come with an optional NXA-BASE/B battery base 
that allows it to function off the collective charge of two internal 
NXT-BP batteries that can be charged either in the base or in an optional 
NXT-CHG charger.

FIG. 2 shows the front and rear connectors on the Breakout Box.    

FIG. 3 shows the layout of the connectors (located on the rear of the base 
on the NXT and on the left side panel of the NXD panels).    

A PSN4.4 or PSN6.5 Power Supply can indirectly supply power to the 
Modero panels via the NXA-AVB Breakout Box. FIG. 4 shows a sample 
wiring configuration using both an indirect or direct PSN power connection 

for a CV Modero Panel.
