NXA-WC80211G/CF Wireless 802.11g CompactFlash Card
Overview
The NXA-WC80211G/CF (FG2255-07) is a 2.4 GHz WiFi LAN CF Card with external
PIFA antenna.which upgrades a Modero panel’s wireless RF capabilities from 802.11b
to 802.11g. This card provides several methods of wireless encryption and data
security such as WPA, WPA2, and WEP.
In addition to being backwards compatible with 802.11b networks, this card can be
installed in MVP, CV7, 700Vi, CV10(/PB) and 1000Vi panels. To fully utilize these
newer wireless security features, this card must be used in tandem with the latest
Modero firmware upgrade available at www.amx.com.
Specifications
Before You Begin - Upgrade the Firmware
Upload the latest panel-specific kit file to your existing MVP, CV7, or CV10 touch
panel and then confirm the firmware file update was successful. Refer to your panel’s
instruction manual for detailed communication and Kit file upload procedures.
Each panel should be updated using its associated panel-specific kit file:
• MVP-7500 - SW5965_01.kit
• MVP-8400 - SW5965_02.kit
• MVP-8400i - SW5965_02.kit
• NXT/D-CV7 - SW2258_01.kit
•NXD-700vi - SW2258_04.kit
• NXT/D-CV10 - SW2259_01.kit
• NXD-1000vi - SW2259_04.kit
This firmware file provides both backwards compatibility with the previous 802.11b
cards and new security protocols for the new 802.11g wireless CF card.
Caution: If you don’t first update the firmware file on the panel, before proceeding with
the card upgrade process, you will be required to configure NetLinx Studio to
communicate with the target panel via a direct USB connection. In this communication
scenario, your PC acts as a Virtual NetLinx Master establishing a secure USB
connection to the target panel and then uploading the new Kit file.
NXA-WC80211GCF Card and Antenna Overview
This upgrade kit requires that pre-existing panels first be removed from their current
location (surface, wall or docking station) before an installer can access the internal
circuit boards and upgrade a pre-existing 802.11b wireless CF card.
MVP panels require the use of a cardboard cutout (Mounting Template) to properly
position the metal antenna plate onto the inner surface of the unit’s rear plastic
housing.
CV7 and CV10 panels only require locating the Compact Flash’s metal cover plate on
the main circuit board and then adhering the terminal antenna connector to that
location using the included double-sided adhesive tape.
Note: If the CF metal cover plate is not present over the wireless card slot on a CV7 or
CV10 panel, you can use the adhesive tape to secure the terminal antenna to the
surface of the new card (atop the product label).
