Introduction

Basic Operation

The MVP-5200i is operated using both its integral touchscreen and the navigation wheel on the right side of the device. If the device has gone into its Standby Mode, a touch of the touchscreen or of the button wheel will reactivate it.
The MVP-5200i device’s power use allows up to 96 hours of use between rechargings of its internal battery, but its battery charge lasts up to 120 hours if the device goes into Shutdown Mode during that time. The device may be placed in its charging cradle at any time and operated within its cradle.
The device will automatically go into Sleep Mode after fifteen minutes of inactivity, and this limit may be changed at any time. Any wireless Internet connection intended for the device will be reconnected within approximately twenty seconds after the device is placed in its charging cradle. Depending upon preselected settings, the device may be set to go into Active Mode as soon as it is placed in the cradle.

Navigation Wheel

The MVP-5200i device uses a unique button wheel for all commands not directly involving the touchscreen. This wheel, known as a navigation wheel, is located in the upper right corner of the device (FIG. 4). Used with the touchscreen, the navigation wheel allows scrolling and adjusting by turning the wheel with a thumb or finger and then pressing down on one of the wheel’s compass points for up, down, left, and right. The wheel is sensitive enough to adjust levels with one-third of a rotation. The center of the navigation wheel also acts as a button in its own right: for example, pressing down directly upon the wheel center may be used for the equivalent of an "Enter" keystroke
Compass points
The navigation wheel may be turned clockwise or counterclockwise

FIG. 4 Navigation wheel detail
Press and hold the wheel center for three seconds to access the Setup pages (for more information, please see the Setup Pages section on page 51). Continue to hold the wheel center for another three seconds to access the Calibration page (page 86).
If the MVP-5200i needs to be shut down or reset for any reason, press and hold down the wheel center button until the popup stating “panel shutting down” appears or the screen goes dark. Continuously holding down the center button down will cycle the MVP-5200i through the following steps:
1. Setup Pages
2. Calibration
3. Firmware shutdown
4. Hardware shutdown (automatically invoked if the device’s firmware is unable to shut down the
device.
Shut down the panel by holding the wheel center button only if the Setup pages are otherwise inaccessible. Regularly shutting down the device by this method can corrupt the Flash memory.
To turn it back on, press any of the wheel’s compass points and hold until the AMX splash screen appears on the touchscreen. When in its Standby Power Mode, the MVP-5200i may only be returned to its Awake state by touching the screen.

Introduction
The light at the center of the navigation wheel brightens and dims based on its source of power. It lights at full intensity when attached to a power source, such as the Table Charging Station (see the Table Charging Station section on page 9) or the Wall Charging Station (see the Wall Charging Station section on page 11), but lights at only half intensity when running on its internal battery. This allows the user to ascertain whether the device was properly installed in a charging station, as the brightness will visibly increase with a correct docking and will flash while charging. (The flashing during recharging may be disabled via the device’s on-board Setup page, as explained in the Setup Pages section on page 51.) The behavior of the navigation wheel LED is dependent upon its status, and whether the blink function for the LED while in sleep mode is enabled:

Installing the MVP-WCS-52

Since the Wall Charging Station is intended to be affixed to a wall or other permanent structure, care must be taken to ensure its proper installation to prevent potential damage to the MVP-5200i placed within.
Other than wall installation tools, the only tool required for this installation is a #1 Phillips screwdriver.

Installing the plastic Back Box

The plastic back box has two knockouts at the top of the box and four (4) lockdown wings attached to the box with Phillips-head screws. For ease of installation, the interior of the box contains an "UP" arrow pointing to the knockouts. The Metal Rough-In Box does not have to be installed beforehand, but it offers an extra level of support.
To install the Plastic Back Box:
1. Cut a hole into the wall or surface intended to hold the box. The outer lip of the box is sized 8.69
inches (220.66mm) long and 6.0 inches (152.4mm) high, so the hole should be at least 1/4" (6.4mm) smaller in each dimension (FIG. 10).

Accessories
To assist with wiring, and to avoid mechanical stresses on the wire and the mechanism of the Wall-Mounted Charging Station, the top right knockout is preferred for use.
3. Run the power cable through the knockout into the box. Pull out about six inches (15.25cm) of cable
into the box to facilitate installation of the MVP-WCS-52.
4. Slide the plastic back box into the hole, being careful not to twist or pinch the cable, and set it flush
with the wall (FIG. 11). Make sure that all of the lockdown wings are folded into their slots before attempting to insert the box. For ease of installation, the inside of the box has the direction "UP" labeled for reference.
All lockdown wings folded flat during installation
Note Orientation Designator
FIG. 11 Installation of plastic back box
5. Extend the wings on the sides of the box by tightening the screws inside the box. Not all of the
wings must be extended to lock the box in place, but extending a minimum of the top and bottom wings is highly recommended. Apply enough pressure to the screw head to keep the box flush with the wall: this ensures that the wing will tighten up against the inside of the wall.
Make absolutely certain that the box is in its intended position. Once the box lockdown wings are extended within the box’s hole within the wall, removing the box will be extremely difficult without damaging the wall in the process.
The maximum recommended torque to screw in the wings on the plastic back box is 105 IN-OZ [74 N-CM]. Applying excessive torque while tightening the wing screws, such as with powered screwdrivers, can strip out the wings or damage the plastic back box.
6. Prepare the captive wires for the 2-pin 3.55 mm mini-captive wire connector used for the MVP-
WCS-52’s power supply:
Preparing and connecting the captive wires requires the use of a wire stripper and flat-blade screwdriver.

Accessories
Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.
Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector.
Turn the screws clockwise to secure the wires in the connector. Do not over-torque the screws;
doing so can bend the seating pins and damage the connector.
7. Secure the power cable to the device, using either of the two tie-wrap anchors included in the
Installation Kit at the top rear of the device (FIG. 12). Point the head of each tie wrap toward the center of the device.

Installing the Optional Metal Rough-In Box

The optional metal rough-in box (FG037-11) is 10 inches (25.40cm) wide at its widest dimension (wider than the bezel of the Wall Charging Station), and is only intended for pre construction installations (FIG. 14). The Metal Rough-In Box is used in conjunction with the Wall Charging Station’s plastic back box. The Metal Rough-In Box must be located behind 3/8" (0.95cm) to 3/4" (1.91cm) of wall/mounting surface material.
Install front surface of box flush with surface of wall stud
FIG. 14 Typical metal Rough-In Box Installation
The metal rough-in box bears a wing on each corner which is intended to bridge gaps between studs and/ or spacers. These wings may be bent carefully in order to fit a particular gap, but may not be so bent as to allow the box to hang in a vertical position. Once placed in the desired position, put at least one screw through each wing into the adjoining stud or spacer to secure it.
The interior of the box contains a set of holes on either side, as well as top and bottom, for standard 1/4­inch screws. Use these holes to anchor the box to its adjoining studs or spacers.
Ensure that the metal rough-in box is flush with the 2x4 studs. Any overhang will affect the installation of the covering sheetrock, as well as affect the placement of the Plastic Back Box.
The box has two sets of knockouts in the top and bottom, one of the set for US wiring and one for international wiring.
Make sure that the power cable has been pulled through the metal rough-in box by the resident electrician before continuing the installation.
After completing the installation of the metal rough-in box, install sheet rock or other wall material over the box, cut a hole matching the size of the inside diameter in the sheet rock, and clean out all dust before proceeding with the installation of the plastic back box.

Other MVP-WCS-52 installations

The Wall-Mounted Charging Station is designed to be installed in various different locations, such as into the face of a wooden podium or the top of a table. Depending upon the ability to wire it to a power source, Wall-Mounted Charging Stations may be installed on vertical or horizontal surfaces composed of such materials as wood, brick, and glass.
Installing a Wall-Mounted Charging Station into a solid wall thicker than a standard thickness of sheetrock is possible, but requires special preparation. If installing into a solid wall of concrete or rock, a recess must be chiselled or cut out to match the size of the device. The box is sized 8.375 inches (21.27cm) long and 5.75 inches (14.60cm) high, so the hole should be at least 1/4" (0.64cm) smaller in these dimensions. To facilitate the full range of movement of the device’s components, the recess must be at least 2.69 inches (6.83cm) deep.
Ensure that the power cable has been installed in the wall and is accessible by the installer before chiseling out the recess.
Instead of using the lockdown wings to secure the Plastic Back Box, standard concrete screws may be inserted through the screw holes after removing the lockdown wings. However, drill the concrete screw holes into the wall before setting the screws into the box, as excessive torque applied to the screws will damage the box. To avoid this, the box may be installed with adhesive. Test an unobtrusive spot on the back of the box with a sample of the adhesive to check for any adverse reactions before installing the device.
