10" Modero Widescreen Touch Panels
Introduction
The NXD-1000Vi Modero Widescreen Color Video Touch Panels with duplex intercom (FIG. 1) are the
industry’s first widescreen mini-touch panels and are available only through AMX.
Introduction
FIG. 1 Sample 10" Video Touch Panel
These Color Video (CV) panels display NTSC/PAL/SECAM video formats within variable sized
windows. They include a built-in microphone, speaker, audio/headphone connector, and two NetLinx
programmable pushbuttons (available on NXD models only when mounted with included Button Trim
Ring).
Each panel is sold only as part of a kit which includes both a panel and an NXA-AVB/ETHERNET
Audio/Video Breakout Box (FG2254-10). This box facilitates the installation and distribution of video
(either Composite or S-Video), data (via Ethernet), and audio to Modero touch panels located up to 200
feet (60.96 m) from the breakout box. NXD-1000Vi panels are ideally suited for displaying full motion
video and audio with overlay graphics for applications with demanding visual requirements.

(includes both an NXD panel and an NXA-AVB/ETHERNET A/V Breakout Box).
Key features include:
NXD-1000Vi panels are based on the latest display technology and support AMX's 4th
generation (G4) graphics which provide higher brightness, richer colors, and deeper contrast.
The new G4 graphics technology is supported by the latest AMX TPDesign4 Touch Panel
Design program.
NXD-1000Vi panels display eye-catching images and full-motion video on a large 16:9 image
format, while providing a wide 95-degree top-to-bottom viewing angle.
NXD-1000Vi panels feature a front panel light sensor, motion sensor, IR receiver and a Sleep/
Setup Access combo button.

Introduction
NXD-1000Vi panels are field upgradeable to 802.11g communication via the installation of
the new NXA-WC8011GCF Wi-Fi Card Kit (FG2255-07).
NXD-1000Vi panels support AMX Computer Control, which enables remote viewing and
control of any networked computer directly from the panel. This gives the user the ability to
launch digital music from a PC, cruise the Internet, check and respond to E-mail, open
software files, and launch applications. Anything you can do on your PC can be accomplished
through these panels.
The optional wireless solution includes an NXA-WC80211GCF internal Wi-Fi card that
allows the NXD-1000Vi to communicate with a NetLinx Master via a standard 802.11g
Wireless Access Point, and an NXA-BASE/1 battery base kit that allows the NXT to function
off the charge from the included single NXT-BP battery.
NXD-1000Vi panels feature programmable firmware that can be upgraded via either the
Ethernet port, wireless interface card, or the mini-USB port.

Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET for Unbalanced Audio
Most domestic audio equipment has unbalanced audio inputs and outputs. This means that the audio
output (left, right, or mono) appears on a single wire, and is referenced to "0 V" or "Ground". Typical
connectors used are RCA "phono" connectors, DIN plugs/sockets, and 0.25" (6.3mm) or 3.5mm jack
plugs/sockets.
Unbalanced audio is adequate for most domestic environments and for line-level signals in a typical
broadcast studio. Problems may occur if the signals are carried over long distances, especially if the
source and destination have separate main supplies. Use the following wiring drawing (FIG. 8) to
configure an unbalanced audio connection.

Unbalanced OUT
When using unbalanced audio for the AUDIO IN connector (FIG. 8), the "-" and the "GND" terminals
should be connected together and then connected to the GND of the unbalance audio signal. When
connecting to an unbalanced audio input from the MIC OUT connector (FIG. 8), wire the "+" terminal to
the signal input, and the "GND" terminal to the signal ground.
Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET for Balanced Audio
Professional audio equipment will often use balanced audio inputs and outputs, usually on 3-pin "XLR"
connectors. A balanced audio signal consists of a pair of wires carrying the audio signal in anti-phase
with each other (if one wire carries a positive voltage, the other carries an equal and opposite negative
voltage).
The advantage of balanced audio over unbalanced audio is its ability to reject external interference added
as the signal is carried over the wire. The receiving equipment takes the voltage difference between the
two wires as the input signal. Interference will usually get added to both wires equally, and so gets
cancelled by the receiving equipment.
The 3 wires used in a typical XLR lead are often referred to as Ground, Live (Hot) and Return (Cold).
"Live" and "Return" carry the "in-phase" and "out-of-phase" versions of the audio respectively. The pins
of the XLR plug/socket are as follows:
• X = Ground
• L = Live (Hot)
• R = Return (Cold)
10" Modero Widescreen Touch Panels

NXA-AVB/ETHERNET Breakout Box
When connecting the MIC OUT connector to a balanced audio input (FIG. 9), use all three audio
terminals (+, -, and GND), then connect the "+" terminal to the "live" signal, the "-" terminal to the
"return" signal, and the "GND" terminal to the ground signal.

NXD-1000Vi Touch Panel Accessories
This card works with compatible 802.11b/g Wireless Access Points such as the NXA-WAP200G (which
uses a default SSID of AMX). Please follow your particular Wireless Access Point’s instruction manual
for the correct procedures to setup either a secured or unsecured connection. The following table lists the
specifications for the NXA-WC80211GCF.
This upgrade kit requires that pre-existing panels first be removed from their current location (surface,
wall or docking station) before an installer can access the internal circuit boards and upgrade a
pre-existing 802.11b wireless CF card.
Only MVP panels require the use of a cardboard cutout (Mounting Template) to properly position the
metal antenna plate onto the inner surface of the unit’s rear plastic housing
700Vi, 1000Vi, CV7, and CV10 panels only require locating the Compact Flash’s metal cover plate on
the main circuit board and then adhering the terminal antenna connector to that location using the
included double-sided adhesive tape.
If the CF metal cover plate is not present over the wireless card slot on a 700Vi,
1000Vi, CV7, or CV10 panel, you can use the adhesive tape to secure the terminal
antenna to the surface of the new card (atop the product label).
The procedures for upgrading a CF card on an MVP is identical for both MVP-7500 and MVP-8400
panels. The procedures for upgrading/installing the new CF card are also similar across all referenced
NXT panels and NXD panels as a group (differences arise from their housing).
