NXV-300 Modero Virtual Touch Panel
Appendix B - Troubleshooting
This section describes the solutions to possible hardware/firmware issues that could arise during the common operation
of a Modero touch panel.
Troubleshooting Information
Symptom Solution
When using G4 WebControl to
communicate with a target panel, a
VNC Server dialog appears on my
screen.
• During a WebControl connection to a target panel, a G4 Authentication
dialog will ask you to enter the assigned password for the panel before
allowing access.
• If prompted with a VNC Server dialog, enter the IP Address of the target
panel. This can be found within the Setup > Protected Setup > System
Connection page. This IP Address of the panel appears within the IP
Settings section of this page
• Enter the IP Address and click OK. When prompted with the G4
Authentication popup, enter the panel’s WebControl password.
My Modero panel isn’t appearing in
my Workspace window.
• Verify that the System number is the same on both the NetLinx Workspace
window and the System Connection page on the Modero panel.
• Verify that you have entered the proper NetLinx Master IP and connection
methods into the Master Connection section of the System Connection page.
My Modero panel can’t obtain a
DHCP Address
In requesting a DHCP Address, the DHCP Server can take up to a few minutes to
provide the address.
• Verify that an active Ethernet connection is attached to the rear of the
Modero before beginning these procedures.
• Select Diagnostics > Network Address from the Main menu and verify the
System number.
• If the IP Address field is still empty, give the Modero a few minutes to
negotiate a DHCP Address and try again.
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 can’t seem to connect to a NetLinx
Master using NetLinx
Studio 2.
From the Settings > Master Comm Settings > Communication Settings >
Settings (for TCP/IP), uncheck the "Automatically Ping the Master Controller
to ensure availability" box.
• The pinging is to determine if the Master is available, and to reply with a
connection failure instantly if it is not. Without using the ping feature, you will
still attempt to make a connection, but a failure will take longer to be
recognized. Some firewalls and networks do not allow pinging, though, and
the ping will then always result in a failure.
• When connecting to a NetLinx Master controller via TCP/IP, the program will
first try to ping the controller before attempting a connection. Pinging a
device is relatively fast and will determine if the device is off-line, or if the
TCP/IP address that was entered was incorrect. If you decide NOT to ping
for availability and the controller is off-line, or you have an incorrect TCP/IP
address, the program will try for 30-45 seconds to establish a connection.
Note: When trying to connect to a master controller that is behind a firewall,
unchecking this option may be required. Most firewalls will not allow ping requests
to pass through for security reasons.
