associated with any gateway. If the CEN-RFGW-EX gateway fails to
acquire the MTX-3 for any reason, the MTX-3 does not reassociate with the

materials can scratch the surface, which may detrimentally affect image
quality.
For best cleaning results, use a clean, damp, non-abrasive cloth with
any commercially available non-ammonia glass cleaner. Bezels may not
provide a complete watertight seal. Therefore, apply cleaning solution to
the cloth rather than the surface of the touch screen. Wipe touch screen
clean and avoid getting moisture beneath the bezels.
CAUTION : To avoid possible damage to the unit, do not use the touch
screen in the rain or expose it to moisture.
