Frequently Asked Questions - MVP-TDS-9 AMX

How do I charge the MVP-9000i using the MVP-TDS-9?

Simply slide the MVP-9000i into the docking station cradle bottom-first until fully seated. The charger pins in the cradle will contact the panel's connector and automatically start charging. The panel stops charging when the battery is full.

How do I remove the MVP-9000i from the docking station?

Press the capacitive Release button on the front. This switches the panel from wired to wireless Ethernet and releases the latch. Then you can lift the panel out. Note: removal is not possible during a firmware download.

Does the MVP-TDS-9 support both charging and data?

Yes. When the panel is docked, it receives power and a wired Ethernet connection via the PoE injector. The panel automatically switches from wireless to wired Ethernet.

What are the dimensions and weight of the MVP-TDS-9?

Dimensions: 6.25'' x 11.50'' x 5.50'' (15.88 cm x 29.21 cm x 13.97 cm). Weight: 1.25 lbs (0.57 kg).

What power supply is needed?

The MVP-TDS-9 requires the included PS-POE-AT High-Power PoE Injector (30 W). It provides both power and Ethernet data through a single cable.

Can I use the USB ports while the panel is docked?

Yes. The two USB ports on the rear can be used for firmware updates, file downloads, or connecting a keyboard/mouse to the docked touch panel.

What are the operating temperature limits?

Operating: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Battery charging is limited to 0°C to 30°C (32°F to 86°F). Storage: -10°C to 60°C (-14°F to 140°F).

How do I connect the Ethernet cable to the docking station?

Turn the device upside down. Use the included RJ45 plug (other plugs may not fit) to connect the Ethernet cable to the PWR RJ45 connector on the bottom. Press the cable into the locking groove to prevent wear.

Is the MVP-TDS-9 compatible with panels other than the MVP-9000i?

The MVP-TDS-9 is specifically designed for the AMX MVP-9000i touch panel (models FG5967-01 and FG5967-02). Other panels may not fit or charge properly.

What should I do if the docking station is not working?

Check the PoE injector connections: ensure power cable is plugged in, Ethernet cables are secure, and the panel is fully seated. If issues persist, consult the installation guide or contact AMX support. Avoid using third-party injectors.

USER MANUAL MVP-TDS-9 AMX

The Power-over-Ethernet MVP-TDS-9 Table Docking Station (FIG. 1) charges the MVP-9000i and provides a wired Ethernet connection when the panel is docked. The MVP-TDS-9's sleek design allows the panel to slide into perfect placement in the docking station and includes password protection support for panel removal. When the MVP-9000i is placed into the PoE docking station, it automatically switches from wireless to wired Ethernet communication. The Docking Station is available in either black (MVP-TDS-9-GB, FG5967-10) or white (MVP-TDS-9-GW, FG5967-11).

Powering the MVP-TDS-9

The MVP-TDS-9 uses the PS-POE-AT High-Power PoE Injector to provide direct power for the MVP panel via a standard Ethernet connection, both for standard function and for charging its internal battery. This also allows a wired Ethernet connection for the panel, and the panel may be used normally while docked in the MVP-TDS-9 without the need for a wireless connection.

NOTE: Use the included RJ45 plug for connecting the included Ethernet cable to the MVP-TDS-9. Other RJ45 plugs will not fit in the device's jack, and attempting to use another plug may damage the jack.

1. Turn the device upside down and connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the PWR RJ45 connector on the bottom of the MVP-TDS-9.
2. To prevent wear on the Ethernet cable and assure that the device's base is in full contact with the table surface, press the cable into the locking groove running across the bottom of the device (FIG. 2).

1. The other end of the included Ethernet cable has an input port, intended for a standard RJ45 jack. Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet/PoE port to the PS-POE-AT plugging the other end of the Ethernet cable into the Data & Power Out RJ45 port on the PS-POE-AT. Make sure that the PS-POE-AT's power cable is connected to the device and to an available power source, and that the incoming Ethernet cable accessing the Data In RJ45 jack is connected to the desired network.

2. Place the touch panel in the Docking Station cradle bottom-first and make sure the device is fully seated in the Docking Station. When fully seated, the touch panel's docking station connector should be in contact with the Docking Station's charger pins (FIG. 2).

For more information on the PS-POE-AT, please refer to the PS-POE-AT High-Power PoE Injector Installation Guide, available from www.amx.com.

Recharging

To recharge the MVP-9000i, slide the device into the Table Docking Station cradle bottom-first and make sure the device is fully seated in the Docking Station. The charger pins in the bottom of the cradle (FIG. 2) must be in contact with the connector on the bottom of the MVP-9000i for it to start recharging. The MVP panel will stop recharging automatically once the battery has achieved its maximum charge. The MVP panel will also switch automatically from a wireless to a wired Ethernet connection.

For more information on transferring files, please refer to the MVP-9000i Modero Viewpoint Widescreen Touch Panel Operation/Reference Guide, available at www.amx.com.

Removing the MVP-9000i from the MVP-TDS-9

The center front of the MVP-TDS-9 contains one capacitive touch Release button. This button, when pressed, switches the MVP panel from a wired to a wireless Ethernet connection and disconnects the latch holding the panel to the MVP-TDS-9. The panel may be removed from the device at that time.

NOTE: The MVP panel CANNOT be removed from the MVP-TDS-9 during a software or firmware download. The panel can only be removed when the download is complete.

NOTE: Charging Lithium Polymer batteries at high temperature will reduce the battery life. Industry guidelines dictate that batteries should not be charged at temperatures above 45^ C ( 113^ F). The temperature is determined by a combination of the ambient temperature where the panel is located, plus temperature increases normally occurring inside electronic devices containing batteries. AMX has implemented battery temperature monitoring features to maximize the rate of battery charging, while staying within industry temperature guidelines.

Battery charge times will increase in installations where the room temperature is above 25^ C ( 77^ F), and may be temporarily suspended at room temperatures above 30^ C ( 86^ F). Battery charging will automatically resume once the temperature has fallen to appropriate levels. Minimizing the display backlight intensity and turning off the backlight during periods of non-use will also yield faster charge times.
