MVP-9000i Modero® Wireless Touch Panel with Intercom
Wireless Settings - Wireless Access Overview
DHCP
When choosing DHCP, a DHCP server must be accessible before the fields are populated.
The parameters of the wireless card must be set before selecting Ethernet as the Master Connection Type. The
Wireless Access Point communication parameters must match those of the pre-installed wireless CF
card inside the device.
MVP touch panels connect to a wireless network through their use of the pre-installed AMX 802.11a/b/g
wireless interface card. This allows users to communicate with a Wireless Access Point (WAP). For a more
detailed explanation of the new security and encryption technology, refer to the Appendix B: Wireless
Technology section on page 179.
For more information on utilizing the AMX Certificate Upload Utility in conjunction with the EAP security,
refer to the AMX Certificate Upload Utility section on page 185.
Configuring Wireless Network Access
The first step in connecting the MVP-9000i 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 WAP: 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 WiFi Settings
The first step to a successful setup of the internal wireless card is to configure the WiFi tab on the System
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. Touch the Network button to open the System Settings page.
2. Select the WiFi tab (FIG. 20).
3. Toggle the DHCP/Static field until the choice cycles to DHCP. This action causes all fields in the IP
Settings section, other than Host Name, to be greyed-out.
