8. Select the panel’s Kit file from the Files section.
9. Enter the Device value associated with the panel and the System number associated with the Master
(listed in the OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace window). The Port field is greyed-out.

process is complete. The reboot of the panel can take up 30 seconds after the firmware process has
finished.

project systems, establishes a new connection to the Master, and populates the System list with
devices on your particular system.

Upgrading the Modero Firmware via Ethernet (IP Address)
Before beginning with this section, verify that your panel is powered and connected to the NetLinx
Master through an Ethernet connection (direct or wireless).
Step 1: Prepare the Master for communication via an IP
1. Obtain the IP Address of the NetLinx Master from your System Administrator. If you do not have
an IP Address for the Master, refer to your particular Master’s instruction manual for more
information on obtaining this IP Address using NetLinx Studio 2.x.
 From the Online Tree tab of the Workspace window, select the NetLinx Master.
 Follow steps outlined in either the Obtaining or Assigning the Master’s IP Address sections
from your particular NetLinx Master instruction manual to use an address.
 Note the IP Address and Gateway information.
2. Launch NetLinx Studio 2.x (default location is Start > Programs > AMX Control Disc > NetLinx
Studio 2 > NetLinx Studio 2).
3. Select Settings > Master Communication Settings from the Main menu to open the Master
Communication Settings dialog (FIG. 80).
4. Click the Communications Settings button to open the Communications Settings dialog.
5. Click on the NetLinx Master radio button (from the Platform Selection section) to indicate you are
working with a NetLinx Master (such as the NXC-ME260/64 or NI-Series of Integrated
Controllers).
6. Click on the TCP/IP radio button (from the Transport Connection Option section) to indicate you
are connecting to the Master through an IP Address.
7. Click the Edit Settings button (on the Communications Settings dialog) to open the TCP/IP
Settings dialog (FIG. 80). This dialog contains a series of previously entered IP Address/URLs and
their associated names, all of which are stored within Studio and are user-editable.
8. Click the New button to open the New TCP/IP Settings dialog where you can enter both a
previously obtained DHCP or Static IP Address and an associated description for the connection
into their respective fields.
