The first time the panel is recognized by the PC as a new USB device, a USB driver installation popup window
(FIG. 27) is displayed. This window notifies you that the panel has been detected as a USB device, and the
appropriate USB driver is being installed to establish communication with the panel. It also indicates that the AMX
USBLAN driver does not contain a Microsoft
®
digital signature.

Configure a Virtual NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio
A Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM) is used when the target panel is not connected to a physical NetLinx Master. In this
situation, the PC takes on the functions of a Master via a Virtual NetLinx Master. This connection is made by either using
the PC’s Ethernet Address (via TCP/IP using a known PC’s IP Address as the Master) or using a direct mini-USB
connection to communicate directly to the panel.
Before beginning:
1. Verify the panel has been configured to communicate via USB within the System Settings page and that the USB
driver has been properly configured. Refer to the previous section for more information.
2. In NetLinx Studio, select Settings > Master Communication Settings, from the Main menu to open the Master
Communication Settings dialog (FIG. 28).
