Step 3: Choose a Master Connection Mode
Since the MVP-5150 may connect with a Master via USB or Ethernet, this requires a decision on the
type of connection to be made between it and the Master. The MVP-5100 may only use USB for
connection.
To establish a Master connection:
1. From the Protected Setup page, select System Settings.
2. Select Type to toggle between the Master Connection Types USB and Ethernet (FIG. 25).
A USB connection is a direct connection from the panel’s mini-USB port to a corresponding
USB port on the PC (acting as a Virtual Master).
A wireless Ethernet connection involves indirect communication from the panel to a Master
via a wireless connection to the network.
Transferring firmware KIT files over a USB connection should only be done when the
panel is connected to a power supply. If battery power or the wireless connection fails
during a firmware upgrade, the panel flash file system may become corrupted.
