The New 7.5" & 8.4" Modero ViewPoints

Small, light, sleek, sexy

AMX proudly expands its Modero family of Touch Panels by incorporating the 802.11b-based wireless 7.5" and 8.4" Modero ViewPoints (MVP-7500 and MVP-8400). The MVPs are the ultimate user interfaces, combining wireless mobility, Table Top functionality, and the flexibility to act as a Flush Mount. Both 1-way IR and 2-way wireless communications are built into both MVPs using standard 802.11b technology. The MVPs are truly the most versatile AMX Touch Panels on the market today.

Appealing Displays

The MVP-8400 sets a new benchmark in wireless Touch Panel control. The high-brightness, high-contrast 8.4" active LCD display delivers 800x600 pixels with 18-bit color. The MVP-7500 provides 640x480 pixels with 12-bit color using a passive LCD display.

Awesome G4 Graphics

Both MVPs include all of the G4 graphics capabilities that you can expect from the award-winning AMX Modero Touch Panels. Icons flip, spin, morph, and expand to provide feedback for the entire control system. Buttons fade into control devices, and then fade away on command. Anti-aliased fonts ensure crisp, clean, clear text. High-resolution images display album cover art or networked "picture albums."

G4 Computer Control

The innovative G4 Computer Control feature delivers remote access and control of any networked computer to your MVP. Launch digital music from your MP3 player. Cruise the Internet. Check and respond to email. Open software files and launch applications. Let your imagination soar - that's the G4 graphics engine at work.

MVP-8400 Multimedia Access

The MVP-8400 further separates itself from the pack with wireless multi-media features. Stream wireless MP3 or WAV file audio to the stereo speakers. Use the intergrated microphone as a wireless intercom system. The applications are virtually endless.
