This communication type is used to upgrade firmware (via the NetLinx Studio software application) and upload new touch panel pages (via the TPDesign4 software application). USB connectivity was introduced within both the MVP-Series of wireless panels and the CV7 video panels. The 12-, 15- and 17-inch Modero panels (1200V, 1200VG, 1500VG, and 1700VG) further broaden the use of USB connectivity to a target Virtual Master. What you'll need to begin: CC-USB programming cable PC (acting as a Virtual Master) USB-compatible Modero touch panel For a personal computer to establish a connection to a Modero panel via USB, the target computer must have the appropriate AMX USB driver installed. Typically this installation is bundled into the setup program of the NetLinx Studio and/or TPDesign4 software applications. This driver is scheduled to be packaged with the next release of the aforementioned AMX software applications; but at this time, it is being distributed as a stand-alone executable for use with all current USB-compatible Modero panels. Note that the USB driver packaged within this executable is meant to be installed only after the latest NetLinx Studio and TPD4 applications have already been installed onto your PC. This USB driver is more current than the driver installed as part of those AMX applications. This guide takes you step-by-step through the installation of the AMX USBLAN software driver.
