Wireless Settings Page - Wireless Access Overview
Hot Swapping
Hot swapping is not an issue on these panels as the card is installed within the unit and cannot be
removed without first removing the housing.
In the case of DHCP, there must be a DHCP server accessible before the fields are populated.
Before selecting Ethernet as the Master Connection Type you must setup the parameters of the wireless
card. The Wireless Access Point communication parameters must match those of the pre-installed
wireless CF card inside the MVP.
The MVP touch panels allow users to connect to a wireless network through their use of the
pre-installed AMX 802.11g wireless interface card to communicate with a Wireless Access Point (WAP)
such as the NXA-WAP200G). The WAP communication parameters must match those of the
pre-installed wireless interface card installed within the panel. This internal card transmits data
wirelessly using the 802.11x signals at 2.4 GHz. For a more detailed explanation of the new security and
encryption technology, refer to the section of the document entitled: Appendix B - Wireless
Technology section on page 185.
For more information on utilizing the AMX Certificate Upload Utility in conjunction with the EAP
security, refer to the section of the document entitled: Appendix B - Wireless Technology section on
