MVP-9000i 9" Modero® ViewPoint® Touch Panel with Intercom
Shutdown - The system enters this mode after a user selectable amount of inactivity time has elapsed or if the
battery level falls below 5 percent of its full charge. This is the absolute lowest mode of operation, during
which power to all peripherals and components is turned off. It is not online with the NetLinx Master and will
not appear in NetLinx Studio. The system remains in this mode until the screen is touched, or external power
is applied.
Proper Battery Maintenance
To insure maximum performance and reliability of the MVP-9000i, please insure that a full charge is performed every 3
months if not used regularly. If a battery is left uncharged beyond this time frame, it may result in premature battery
lifespan degradation and will require replacement.
Battery Replacement
The touch panel's battery is intended to last the life of the device, but in cases where the battery has reached its effective
end of life, it may be replaced.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST!
To minimize the risk of damage to the battery during installation, all replacement batteries come in a protective metal
cover (FIG. 120). This cover cannot be removed from the battery.
In Standby Mode, the panel will go offline.
