NXD-430/435/435P 4.3” Wall/Flush Mount Touch Panels
Troubleshooting Information (Cont.)
The left border of the graphics
has a crawling, dashed line.
• On some units at some resolutions, wavy lines may appear across the
entire screen. This has been seen on middle resolutions and is referred
to as the "Mid Range Fallout" problem.
• This is due to the graphics controller settings in the firmware.
• Update to the latest v2.XX.XX firmware. Visit the www.amx.com >
Tech Center > Downloadable Files > Firmware Files > Modero
panels, and then download the KIT file to your computer.
NetLinx Studio only detects one
of my connected Masters.
Each Master is give a Device Address of 00000.
• Only one Master can be assigned to a particular System number. When
working with multiple Masters, open different instances of NetLinx
Studio and assign each Master its own System value.
• Example: a site has an NXC-ME260/64 and an NI-4000. In order to
work with both units. The ME260/64 can be assigned System #1 and
the NI-4000 can then be assigned System #2 using two open sessions
of NetLinx Studio 2.
I have more that one Modero
panel connected to my System
Master and only one shows up.
Multiple NetLinx Compatible devices (such as Modero panels) can be
associated for use with a single Master. Each Modero panel comes with a
defaulted Device Number value of 10001. When using multiple panels, it
can become very easy to overlook the need to assign different Device
Number values to each panel.
• Press and hold the grey Front Setup Access button for 3 seconds to
open the Setup page.
• Press the Protected Setup button (located on the lower-left of the
panel page), enter 1988 into the on-screen Keypad’s password field,
and press Done when finished.
• Enter a Device Number value for the panel into the Device Number
Keypad. The default is 10001 and the range is from 1 - 32000.
After downloading a panel file or
firmware to a G4 device, the
panel behaves strangely.
Symptoms include:
• Having to repeat the download.
• Inability to make further downloads to the panel. May get "directory"
errors, "graphics hierarchy" errors, etc.… indicating problems with the
Flash memory.
• Panel will not boot, or gets stuck on "AMX" splash screen.
• Other problems also started after downloading to a new panel or a
panel with a TPD4 file that takes up a considerable amount of the
available Flash memory.
Cause:
• If the G4 device already contains a large enough file, subsequent
downloads will take up more space than is available and could often
corrupt the Flash memory. The demo file that typically ships with G4
panels is one such file.
Solution:
• DO NOT download TPD4 files (of large size) over the demo pages, or
any other large TPD4 file.
• First download a small blank one page file to the G4 panel using the
Normal Transfer option to send/download the page. Reboot the device,
then do your regular file or firmware download.
