MVP-WDS Wall Docking Station & CB-MVPWDS Rough-In Box
15 MVP-WDS Wall Docking Station for MVP Panels
Connecting and Using USB Input Devices on the Stations
The MVP-WDS can have up to two USB input devices connected for use on the MVP panel’s different
firmware and TPD4 panel pages. These input devices can consist of a keyboard and mouse.
1. Remove the power connector from the docking station.
2. Insert the USB connectors of the peripheral input devices, into the appropriate USB connector on
the docking station.
3. Reconnect the terminal power connector to the docking station and apply power.
4. Install the MVP panel onto the docking station.
5. Navigate to the Protected Setup page on the MVP panel and press the Reboot button to restart the
panel. This step allows the MVP panel to detect the USB input devices signals being sent through
the connected docking station.
6. After the panel splash-screen disappears:
If a USB mouse has been connected, a mouse cursor appears on the panel screen and its
location corresponds to the mouse cursor position sent by the external USB mouse.
If a USB keyboard has been connected, only on-screen keyboards and keypads will reflect any
external keystrokes sent from the external USB keyboard.
To be detected by the docking station, USB input devices (keyboard / mouse) must be plugged into the
docking station before it is powered-up. The docking station will not detect USB input devices until the
unit cycles power.
Interface Connector Pins and Functions
FIG. 16 provides the pin numbering and function information for the docking stations:
USB-connected input devices are detected by the docking stations only after they are
connected and then power is applied.
The MVP does not recognize the keyboard and/or mouse (connected to the
docking station) until after the MVP itself has been rebooted.
It does not matter if the MVP is on the docking station at the time the USB devices
are plugged in or not.
The reboot of the panel has to occur after the MVP is properly connected and
communicating with the docking station. In addition, if the MVP is removed from the
docking station, the panel will not recognize the keyboard and/or mouse after it is put
back on the docking station - the MVP will have to be rebooted again.
