number used in step 14 for the Virtual NetLinx Master is entered into the Master Connection section of the System Settings page
and the panel is restarted.
13. The OnLine Tree should now display the connection to the device. The Connection Status Icon on the device may take up to
five seconds to register the connection.
Step 3: Conf irm and Upgrade the f irmware via the USB port
Use the CC-USB Type-A to Mini-B 5-wire programming cable to provide communication between the mini-USB Program port on the
touch panel and the PC. This method of communication is used to transfer firmware Kit files and TPD4 touch panel files.
NOTE: A mini-USB connection is only detected after it is installed onto an active panel.
1. Verify that the direct USB connection (Type-A on the panel to mini-USB on the panel) is configured properly, using the steps
outlined in the previous two sections.
2. With the panel already configured for USB communication and the Virtual Master setup within NetLinx Studio, refresh the
Online Tree pane.
3. After the Communication Verification dialog window verifies active communication between the Virtual Master and the panel,
click the OnLine Tree tab in the Workspace window (FIG. 76) to view the devices on the Virtual System. The default System
value is 1.
4. Right-click on the System entry (FIG. 76) and select Refresh System to re-populate the list. Verify the panel appears in the
OnLine Tree tab of the Workspace window.
