• Electroluminescent and LCD Control Panels are warranted for three (3) years, except for the display and touch

overlay components that are warranted for a period of one (1) year.

• Disk drive mechanisms, pan/tilt heads, power supplies, and MX Series products are warranted for a period of one

(1) year.

• AMX Lighting products are guaranteed to switch on and off any load that is properly connected to our lighting

products, as long as the AMX Lighting products are under warranty. AMX does guarantee the control of dimmable

loads that are properly connected to our lighting products. The dimming performance or quality cannot be

guaranteed due to the random combinations of dimmers, lamps and ballasts or transformers.

• Unless otherwise specified, OEM and custom products are warranted for a period of one (1) year.

• AMX Software is warranted for a period of ninety (90) days.

• Batteries and incandescent lamps are not covered under the warranty.

This warranty extends only to products purchased directly from AMX or an Authorized AMX Dealer.

All products returned to AMX require a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number. The RMA number is obtained

from the AMX RMA Department. The RMA number must be clearly marked on the outside of each box. The RMA is

Mio Modero DMS & Mio Modero DMS Pinnacle

Dynamic Menu System

Using the KeypadBuilder application available for download from www.amx.com, the Mio Modero

DMS and DMS Pinnacle are programmed with a Dynamic Menu System (DMS) that is navigated via the

slider, pushbuttons and LCD touch keypad area. See the KeypadBuilder Instruction Manual for more

information on programming your Mio Modero DMS and DMS Pinnacle devices.

The Mio Modero DMS Pinnacle Slider Feature

The Mio Modero DMS Pinnacle is equipped with an LCD touch slider that allows you to navigate the

dynamic menu system displayed in the LCD touch keypad area. The slider works by running either your

finger or a stylus up and down.

The Mio Modero DMS Pushbutton Feature

The Mio Modero DMS is equipped with a 8 pushbuttons that allows you to navigate and select within the

dynamic menu system displayed in the LCD overlay area. The top and bottom buttons serve as Up and

Down navigation for your menu system. The other six buttons can be designated to interact and select

within the menu system.

Power over Ethernet (PoE)

You have the option of powering your Mio Modero DMS devices in one of two ways. Either connect the

12 VDC power or provide power to the Mio Modero DMS and DMS Pinnacle through the Ethernet port

via a Cat5 cable using PoE sources.

Standard, properly terminated Ethernet Cat5 or Cat6 cable can supply power over the spare or the data

pair. The Mio Modero DMS and Mio Modero DMS Pinnacle negotiate proper power via PoE protocol.

In the event you connect both the 12 VDC and the PoE source, the device will draw power from the 12

VDC by default. If the 12 VDC source is disconnected, PoE automatically supplies power after a device

reboot.

Wiring

With the Mio Modero DMS and DMS Pinnacle, you can use either a 12 VDC power or CAT5/CAT6

wire to the Ethernet port for PoE power.

Preparing captive wires for the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector

You will need a wire stripper, and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the captive wires.

1. Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.

2. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring diagrams and

connector types described in this section.

3. Use a flat-head screwdriver to secure the wires in the connector.

Using the PSN NetLinx connector for power

The PWR and GND cable from the 12 VDC power supply must be connected to the corresponding

location on the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix connector (FIG. 5).

1. Insert the PWR and GND wires on the terminal end of a PSN 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix cable.

Match the wiring locations of the +/- on both the power supply and the terminal connector.

2. Tighten the clamp to secure the two wires. Do not over-torque the screws; doing so may strip the

threads and damage the connector.

3. Verify the connection of the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix to the power supply.

Standard Mounting Procedures for Non-metallic Units

FIG. 7 shows the mounting dimensions for the Mio Modero DMS and DMS Pinnacle. Reference these

measurements when planning and installing the device. The Mio Modero DMS and DMS Pinnacle share

the same dimensions.

Installing the Mio Modero DMS using expansion clips

Expansion clips are mounted through the 2 holes located along the rim of the conduit box (see FIG. 9).

As the screw is tightened, the clip bends toward the insertion hole and into the wall. This bending creates

a "grip" on the wall by either pressing onto the wall or by securing the drywall between the housing and

the drywall clip. The most important thing to remember when mounting the conduit box is that the outer

trim must be installed flush against the mounting surface.

It is recommended that you cutout the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation

drawings so that you can make any necessary cutout adjustments.

Before you begin, if you are using the 2-pin power connector, verify that the terminal end of the power

cable is not connected to a power source

1. If assembled, remove the Mio Modero DMS from the conduit box. Place a flathead screwdriver

between the tab of the conduit box and the notch of the Mio Modero DMS (see FIG. 2) and pop the

two apart. Pull the bottom of the unit out (pivoting on the top clip) until it seems to bind against the

shielding; while keeping the unit at this angle, pull the top of the unit away from the top clip.

2. Cut out the surface for the Mio Modero DMS using the dimensions shown in FIG. 9.

4. Install the 2 drywall screws and expansion clips into the 2 locations along both sides of the conduit

box (FIG. 8).

5. Insert the conduit box and expansion clips into the cutout until the rim of the conduit box is flush

Installing the Mio Modero DMS into a flat surface using mounting screws

Mounting screws (#4 flathead, not included) are secured through two sets of circular holes located at the

left and right sides of the conduit box. Ensure the conduit box is flush against the mounting surface.

It is recommended that you cutout the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation

drawings so that you can make any necessary cutout adjustments.

1. If assembled, remove the Mio Modero DMS from the conduit box. Place a flathead screwdriver

between the tab of the conduit box and the notch of the Mio Modero DMS (see FIG. 2) and pop the

two apart. Pull the bottom of the unit out (pivoting on the top clip) until it seems to bind against the

shielding; while keeping the unit at this angle, pull the top of the unit away from the top clip.

2. Cut out the surface for the Mio Modero DMS conduit box using the dimensions shown in FIG. 9.

3. Thread the CAT5 and, if necessary, the Power cables through one of the provided breakaway access

points on the conduit box. Leave enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any

re-positioning of the unit.

4. Insert the conduit box into the cutout until the rim of the conduit box is flush against the wall.

5. Insert and secure four #4 flathead mounting screws (not included) into their corresponding holes

located along the sides of the conduit box until it is flush against the wall. See FIG. 10.

FIG. 2 for port locations.

7. Insert and fasten the Mio Modero DMS into the conduit box, start at the top of the device and tilt in

toward the bottom.

Removing the device from the wall

The installation housing for the Mio DMS and DMS Pinnacle are made to such exacting specifications it

will always be a snug fit. Should you ever need to remove the DMS from the wall, follow these steps:

1. Place a flathead screwdriver between the tab of the conduit box and the notch of the Mio Modero

DMS (see FIG. 2) and pop the two apart.

2. Pull the bottom of the unit out (pivoting on the top clip) until it seems to bind against the shielding

3. While keeping the unit at this angle, pull the top of the unit away from the top clip.

Standard Mounting Procedures for Metallic Units.

Expansion Clip Installation of the Conduit Box

The expansion clip installation method can be used for podium or other flat surface installations.

1. Cut out the surface for the Mio Modero DMS conduit box using the dimensions shown in FIG. 11.

A template is included to help you determine dimensions.

2. Remove the tabs for the rough-in installation from the conduit box by bending back and forth with

pliers. See FIG. 12.

The device and conduit box must have an Earth ground.
