Installation Procedures: 17" Panels

Modero VG Series Touch Panels - Instruction Manual
6. Follow the procedures outlined within Steps 1 - 5 on page 37 thru page 38 to carefully reinstall the LCD panel back into the
back box housing.
7. Carefully lay the separated LCD (from the main unit) onto a soft cloth resting on a level surface to prevent scratching of the
LCD.
8. Insert the back box into the cutout to check for fit. Make any adjustments to the dimension of the cutout to accommodate the
back box.
9. Cutout the notched beam (FIG. 58) using a height of 13.554" (34.43 cm) and a depth using the following guideline. This
notched beam is located on the side of the NXD unit furthest away from the connectors.
Calculate the distance from the edge of the mounting ridge (FIG. 58) to the rear point (on the box) where the beam touches
the back box. Our example uses 1 3/8" (inches) (on the deepest point of the rear back box).
Calculate the thickness of the drywall/sheetrock. Our example uses 5/8" (inches).
The depth of the notch: 1 3/8" minus 5/8" = 6/8" (inches). This value reflects the cutout depth necessary for the
mounting ridge on the back box to be flush against the surface.
NOTE: The determining factor in the depth of the cut into the beam is the thickness of the drywall. The MOUNTING TAB MUST BE
FLUSH against the drywall and therefore, the depth of the notch depends on that thickness.
10. Thread the incoming RJ-45, Ethernet, and any other audio/video wiring (from their terminal locations) through the cutout
opening. Refer to the Wiring Guidelines for the 1700VG Panels section on page 70 for pinout descriptions. Leave enough slack
in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the panel.
11. Connect all data and power wiring connectors to their corresponding locations along the side of the (un-powered) NXD touch
panel.
Verify the terminal end of the power cable is not connected to a power supply before plugging in the 2-pin power
connector.
The USB connectors can be from either a USB extension cable, or a wireless USB RF transmitter.
12. Test the incoming wiring by attaching the panel connections to their terminal locations and applying power. Verify the panel is
receiving power and functioning properly to prevent repetition of the installation.
13. Disconnect the terminal end of the power cable from the connected power supply.
NOTE: Don’t disconnect the connectors from the touch panel. The unit must be installed with the attached connectors before
being inserted into the drywall.
14. Follow the procedures outlined within Steps 1 - 5 on page 37 thru page 38 to carefully reinstall the LCD panel back into the
back box housing.
15. Install the four sets of drywall screws and expansion clips into the four oval notch locations along the top/bottom edges of
the main unit (FIG. 59). Make sure the top drywall clip grooves face upwards and the bottom clip grooves face downwards (so
they extend away from the Main unit).
16. Carefully insert the main unit (with expansion clips) into the cutout until the Mounting Tabs on the NXD unit lie flush
against the wall (FIG. 59). Make sure to have the right side of the box resting against the non-notched beam (on the right) and
the connector-side of the unit pressed into the notched beam (on the left).
NOTE: Replacement drywall clip sets must be ordered from AMX.
17. Tighten the drywall clip sets (screws and clips) until the Mounting Tabs are securely fastened and flush against the wall.
18. Place the magnetic faceplate (A in FIG. 59) back onto the main NXD unit. Make sure to align the Microphone, Light, and PIR
Motion sensor locations to their respective openings on the front bezel/faceplate.
19. Reconnect the terminal RJ-45, Ethernet, and any optional audio/video wiring to their respective terminal locations on either
the NXA-AVB/RGB Breakout Box, Ethernet port, or NetLinx Master.
20. Reconnect the terminal power connector on the 12 VDC-compliant power supply and apply power.
