Configuring Communication

MVP-5200i Modero® ViewPoint® Touch Panel with Intercom, 5.2 and 5”

Configuring Wireless Network Access

The first step in connecting the MVP-5200i to a wireless network is to configure the wireless communication

parameters within the device’s Wireless Settings page. This page only configures the card to communicate to a

target AP: the device must still be directed to communicate with the correct Master. This "pointing to a

Master" is done via the System Settings page, which allows configuration of the IP Address, System Number

and Username/Password information assigned to the target Master.

Step 1: Configure the Device’s Wireless IP Settings

The first step to a successful setup of the internal wireless card is to configure the IP Settings section on the

Wireless Settings page. This section configures the communication parameters from the MVP panel to the web.

Wireless communication using a DHCP Address

In the Protected Setup page:

1. Select Wireless Settings. Wireless communication is set within the IP Settings section of this page

(FIG. 19).

2. Toggle the DHCP/Static field from the IP Settings section until the choice cycles to DHCP. This action

causes all fields in the IP Settings section, other than Host Name, to be greyed-out.

3. Press the optional Host Name field to open the Host Name keyboard and enter the host name information.

4. Press Done after assigning the alpha-numeric string of the host name.

5. The remaining greyed-out fields in the IP Settings section cannot be altered. Once the panel is rebooted,

these values are obtained by the unit and displayed in the DNS fields after power-up.

6. Set up the security and communication parameters between the wireless card and the target AP by

configuring the Wireless Settings section on this page. Refer to Step 2: Configure the Card’s Wireless

Security Settings section on page 25 for detailed procedures to setup either a secure or insecure

connection.

DHCP will register the unique factory-assigned MAC Address on the panel, and once

the communication setup process is complete, assign IP Address, Subnet Mask, and

Gateway values from the DHCP Server.

This information can be found in either the Workspace - System name > Define

Device section of the code that defines the properties for the panel, or in the Device

Addressing/Network Addresses section of the Tools > NetLinx Diagnostics dialog.
