1200V Modero Video Touch Panels
Introduction
AMX has taken a great leap forward with the release of their new 1200V-Series of Modero touch panels.
These panels offer the ability to display Composite video, 802.11g communication, and USB support for
extended input devices, and panel programming via a mini-USB port. The new G4 graphics and Video
technology is supported by the release of the latest TPDesign4 Touch Panel Design Program. These
video-capable panels support several video formats: NTSC, SECAM, and PAL (Color Active (CA) panels don’t support video).
Each 1200V-Series panels have been pre-installed with 2 antennas which can be later used to
configure each panel type for wireless communication (via an optional NXA-80211G wireless
mini-PCI card).
Modero Video Touch Panels (1200V-Series)
The new and enhanced line of 12" Modero Touch Panel (NXT/NXD-1200V) represent the next step in
video-capable panels and departs from the previously popular CA version. In addition to
Composite/S-Video support (does not support Component RGB signals), the new 1200V panels feature
dual USB connectivity for mouse and keyboard, and antennas, the use of a mini-USB port for panel
programming and a complete departure from the use of an ICSNet connector for communication. These
panels include a built-in microphone, left/right speakers, audio/headphone connector, and an included
audio/video breakout box.
Table Top models use AMX’s exclusive SmoothTilt
viewing angle.
Each panel is sold only as part of a 1200V 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, data, and audio to Modero touch panels located up to 200 feet (60.96 m) from
the breakout box. These panels are ideally suited for displaying full motion video and audio with overlay
graphics for applications with demanding visual requirements. The following is a listing of the currently
available 1200V panels:

Introduction
Connecting and Using Input Devices
The 1200V panel can have up to two USB-capable input devices connected for use on its different
firmware and TPD4 panel pages. These input devices can consist of a keyboard or mouse.
USB-connected input devices are not detected and recognized by the panel until
power is cycled to the unit.
A mini-USB connection is only detected after it is installed onto an active
panel. Connection to a previously powered panel, allows the PC to detect the
panel and assign an appropriate USB driver.
1. Insert the input device USB connectors into the appropriate USB connector on the panel.
2. Press the on-screen Reboot button from the Protected Setup page to save any changes and restart
the panel.
3. After the panel splash-screen disappears:
If a USB mouse has been connected, a mouse cursor appears on the panel screen and its
location corresponds to the mouse cursor position sent by the external USB mouse.
If a USB keyboard has been connected, only on-screen keyboards and keypads will reflect any external
keystrokes sent from the external USB keyboard.

Touch Panel Accessories
The breakout box unit can be mounted on either a horizontal flat surface or into an
equipment rack (by removing the front screws and attaching it to an optional AC-RK).
The power supply being used on the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET is dependant on the
power requirements of the target touch panel.
Use a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable to provide both communication and 10/100 network connectivity
between the panel, NXA-AVB/ETHERNET, NetLinx Master, and the network.
Wiring the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET connectors and cables
The inputs and outputs on the breakout box are separated into front and rear connectors. The rear
connectors are used to input external signals. The front connectors are used to communicate signals
between the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET and a target Modero panel. FIG. 6 provides a layout of the wiring
connection both into and from the breakout box.
The rear-panel wiring connections are described below (from left to right):
• AUDIO IN:6-pin mini-Phoenix connector, divided into left and right audio channels. Each
channel is divided into GND, IN+, and IN- terminal cable connectors
(2 sets of 3 for each channel).
An example of this cable is to strip the ends of 2 RCA audio cables and insert
them into their respective locations on the Audio In port.
Either a balanced (+, -, and GND) or unbalanced (+ and GND) audio
signal can be connected to this input.
• MIC OUT:4-pin mini-Phoenix connector, divided into GND, OUT-, and OUT+ terminal
• Video In BNCs: Feeds either Composite/S-Video Luma or S-Video Chroma signals into the
• ETHERNET:RJ-45 connector routes data to the G4 touch panel through the front Ethernet
connectors.
An example of this cable is to strip the terminal ends of a 3.5mm mini-jack and
insert them into their respective locations on the Mic Out port. This signal can
be fed as a Line Level In to either an amplifier or an AMX VOL card.
Either a balanced (+, -, and GND) or unbalanced (+ and GND) audio signal

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. 7) to
configure an unbalanced audio connection.
•PWR:2-pin mini-Phoenix connector that connects to a 12 VDC-compliant power
supply. This port can be used to provide power to a Modero panel by sending it
through the NXA-AVB/ETHERNET (rear power connector through to the front
power connector).

When using unbalanced audio for the AUDIO IN connector (FIG. 7), 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. 7), 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.
10
1200V Modero Video Touch Panels
Touch Panel Accessories
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)
When connecting the MIC OUT connector to a balanced audio input (FIG. 8), 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.

Installing CAT5 Suppression Ferrites
Before connecting the RJ-45 cables to the panel, install the necessary number of CAT5 Suppression
Ferrites (FIG. 13) to their appropriate locations. These ferrites come as part of the Installation Kits
mentioned in the previous Specification table (page 2). No tools are required for this installation.
Release the latch to
open the plastic
enclosure.
FIG. 13 Installing the CAT5 Suppression Ferrites
Insert the CAT5
cable and close
the enclosure.
Push down on the
enclosure until it
snaps closed.
All 1200V-Series, VG-Series, and Table Top CV10 panels require the installation of
an appropriate number of CAT5 Suppression Ferrites when they use an RJ-45 cable
to feed an A/V signal from the breakout box.
1. The CAT5 Suppression Ferrite is housed within a plastic enclosure (shown in FIG. 12) with a latch
release on one side. Pull to release the latch and open the enclosure.

2. Grasp the Black RJ-45 Audio/Video cable being connected to the panel. This end of the cable is
longer than the opposing end which connects to the breakout box (6 inches vs 3 inches). Refer to
FIG. 14 for more detailed information.
3. Insert the panel-end of the Black RJ-45 Audio/Video cable into the groove along the inside of the
enclosure.
The CAT5 Suppression Ferrites MUST be installed onto the cable connected to the
Modero’s Audio/Video RJ-45 connector (just behind the connector).
4. Snap the enclosure shut with the cable inside, and you’re done.
5. Repeat this process again only when installing an additional CAT5 Suppression Ferrite
(model specific).

NXA-CFTP Compact Flash (FG2116-2x)
Every Modero panel is shipped with two factory default modules: an EXM Memory Module and a
Compact Flash card. These panels are shipped with a 256 memory module which is not upgradeable.
The default 128 MB Compact Flash card is factory programmed with specific panel firmware and is the
only upgradeable memory component. This component can be ordered from AMX in several different
upgrade sizes (as listed in the following table):
Upgrading the internal components involves opening the panel enclosure/outer housing to access the
internal circuit board, removing the existing part, and replacing them with the upgrade components, as
described in the following sections.
It is recommended that any upgrade of internal equipment be done simultaneously in
order to reduce the risk of damage to internal components.
