Downloading firmware
1.
If the panel firmware version is not the latest available; locate the latest firmware file from www.amx.com.
2. Click on the desired Kit file link and after accepting the Licensing Agreement, verify download of the Modero Kit
file to a known location.
3. Select Tools > Firmware Transfers > Send to NetLinx Device from the main menu to open the Send to NetLinx
Device dialog (FIG. 31). Verify that the panel’s System and Device number values match those values listed within
the System folder in the Online Tree tab of the Workspace window.
4. Select the appropriate Kit file from within the Browse for Folder window (FIG. 32).
5. Select the panel’s Kit file from the Files section.
6. 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.
7. Click the Reboot Device checkbox if it is not already checked. This causes the touch panel to reboot after the
firmware update process is complete.
8. Click Send to begin the transfer. The file transfer progress is indicated on the bottom-right of the dialog.
9. After the file transfer is complete, the panel will automatically reboot.
10. After the panel has finished rebooting, right-click the associated System number and select Refresh System. This
causes a refresh of all project systems, establishes a new connection to the Master, and populates the System list
with devices on your particular system.
11. Confirm that the panel has been properly updated to the correct firmware version.
The panel-specific firmware is shown on the right of the listed panel.
Download the latest firmware file from www.amx.com and then save the Kit file to
your computer. Note that each Kit file is intended for download to its corresponding
panel. In some cases, several Kit files may be included in a .zip file; extract the .zip
file to access the required Kit file.
