Panel Connectors and Wiring

Any USB peripherals (mouse, keyboard, etc.) may be connected to one of the two

USB ports on the rear of the device (FIG. 2). Updates to the device’s firmware are also

made via the USB ports .

Power via Power Over Ethernet

Power for the MXT-700 is supplied via Power Over Ethernet (PoE), utilizing an AMXcertified, capacitive touch-compliant PoE injector such as the PS-POE-AT High Power

PoE Injector (FG423-81) or equivalent PoE device. If using a PoE injector, the PoE injector should be installed between the MXT-700 and the incoming Ethernet cable,

and connected to the RJ45 port on the cable attached to the device (FIG. 3)

.

Ethernet Cable Installation and Modification

In installations where you wish to conceal the Ethernet cable, a hole at least 1.00”

(2.54 cm) in diameter is required in the surface to allow passage of the female RJ45

connector (FIG. 3). If using a smaller hole is unavoidable, you will need to disconnect

the Ethernet cable (ECA5968-05) from the device.

NOTE: The minimum diameter hole through which the Ethernet cable may pass is

0.50" (1.27 cm).

4.

5.

6.

On a soft surface, turn the MXT-700 face-down to access the bottom of the device.

Remove the clamp holding the Ethernet cable (FIG. 4) until the Ethernet cable

moves freely.

Remove the Ethernet cable connector and pull the cable out of the clamp.

Pass the Ethernet cable (ECA5968-05) through the hole, with the RJ45 connector on the other side of the installation surface from the device.

Press the Ethernet cable back into the clamp. Do NOT tighten the clamp at this time.

Using a nonconductive item such as a wooden stick, reinsert the Ethernet cable connector into the device. Use the stick to ensure that the connector is properly seated.

7.

8.

Tighten the clamp to secure the Ethernet cable. Make sure the clamp is around the bundled black cable, not the individual wires.

Connect the RJ45 connector to its incoming Ethernet cable and apply power.

Configuring the MXT-700

The MXT-700 is equipped with Settings Pages that allow you to set and configure various features on the panel. For more information on connecting and configuring the

MXT-700 to a network, please refer to the Modero X Series Programming Guide, available at www.amx.com.

Accessing the Settings Pages

2.

From the Settings Page, select Connection & Networks. If the page is password protected, this opens a password keypad.

Enter the panel password into the keypad (the default is 1988) and select OK to access the page.

Connecting to a Master

The panel requires that you establish the type of connection you want to make between it and your Master.

In the Connection & Networks page:

1.

Select Master Connection to open the Master Connection page

2.

Press Mode to toggle through the available connection modes:

Connection Modes

Mode Description Procedures

Auto

URL

The device connects to the first master that responds.

This setting requires that you set the System Number.

Setting the System Number:

1. Select Master System Number to open

the keypad.

2. Set your Master System Number and

select OK.

The device connects to the specific IP of a master via a TCP connection.

This setting requires that you set the Master’s IP.

Setting the Master IP:

1. Select the Master IP number to the

keyboard.

2. Set your Master IP and select OK.

Listen The device “listens” for the

Master to initiate contact.

This setting requires you provide the master with the device’s IP.

Confirm device IP is on the Master URL list.

You can set the Host Name on the device and use it to locate the device on the master.

Host Name is particularly useful in the DHCP scenario where the IP address can change.

3.

If you have enabled password security on your Master, you need to set the username and password within the device.

a. Select Username to open the Master User keyboard.

b. Set your Username and select OK.

c. Select the Password to open the Master Password keyboard.

d. Set your Master Password and select OK.

e. Press the Back button twice to return to the Settings page.

Configuring the Panel to a Network

The first step is to configure the panel’s communication parameters. This only configures the panel to communicate with a network, and it is still necessary to tell the panel with which Master it should be communicating.

Network Communication With a DHCP Address

In the Connection & Networks page:

1.

2.

3.

Select Network Connection to open the Network Connection page.

Toggle the DHCP/Static field until the choice cycles to DHCP. This action causes all fields on the page (other than Host Name) to be greyed-out.

Select Host Name to open the Host Name keyboard. Enter the new host name and click OK.
