AMX Limited Warranty and Disclaimer
This Limited Warranty and Disclaimer extends only to products purchased directly from AMX or an AMX Authorized Partner which
include AMX Dealers, Distributors, VIP’s or other AMX authorized entity.
AMX warrants its products to be free of defects in material and workmanship under normal use for three (3) years from the date of
purchase, with the following exceptions:
• Electroluminescent and LCD Control Panels are warranted for three (3) years, except for the display and touch overlay compo-
nents are warranted for a period of one (1) year.
• Disk drive mechanisms, pan/tilt heads, power supplies, and MX Series products are warranted for a period of one (1) year.
• AMX lighting products are guaranteed to switch on and off any load that is properly connected to our lighting products, as long
as the AMX lighting products are under warranty. AMX also guarantees the control of dimmable loads that are properly con-
nected to our lighting products. The dimming performance or quality there of is not guaranteed, impart due to the random combi-
nations of dimmers, lamps and ballasts or transformers.
• AMX software is warranted for a period of ninety (90) days.
• Batteries and incandescent lamps are not covered under the warranty.
• AMX AutoPatch Epica, Modula, Modula Series4, Modula CatPro Series and 8Y-3000 product models will be free of defects in
materials and manufacture at the time of sale and will remain in good working order for a period of three (3) years following the
date of the original sales invoice from AMX. The three-year warranty period will be extended to the life of the product (Limited
Lifetime Warranty) if the warranty card is filled out by the dealer and/or end user and returned to AMX so that AMX receives it
within thirty (30) days of the installation of equipment but no later than six (6) months from original AMX sales invoice date. The
life of the product extends until five (5) years after AMX ceases manufacturing the product model. The Limited Lifetime Warranty
applies to products in their original installation only. If a product is moved to a different installation, the Limited Lifetime Warranty
will no longer apply, and the product warranty will instead be the three (3) year Limited Warranty.
All products returned to AMX require a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number. The RMA number is obtained from the AMX
RMA Department. The RMA number must be clearly marked on the outside of each box. The RMA is valid for a 30-day period. After
the 30-day period the RMA will be cancelled. Any shipments received not consistent with the RMA, or after the RMA is cancelled, will
be refused. AMX is not responsible for products returned without a valid RMA number.
AMX is not liable for any damages caused by its products or for the failure of its products to perform. This includes any lost profits, lost
savings, incidental damages, or consequential damages. AMX is not liable for any claim made by a third party or by an AMX Autho-
rized Partner for a third party.
This Limited Warranty does not apply to (a) any AMX product that has been modified, altered or repaired by an unauthorized agent or
improperly transported, stored, installed, used, or maintained; (b) damage caused by acts of nature, including flood, erosion, or earth-
quake; (c) damage caused by a sustained low or high voltage situation or by a low or high voltage disturbance, including brownouts,
sags, spikes, or power outages; or (d) damage caused by war, vandalism, theft, depletion, or obsolescence.
This limitation of liability applies whether damages are sought, or a claim is made, under this warranty or as a tort claim (including
negligence and strict product liability), a contract claim, or any other claim. This limitation of liability cannot be waived or amended by
any person. This limitation of liability will be effective even if AMX or an authorized representative of AMX has been advised of the
possibility of any such damages. This limitation of liability, however, will not apply to claims for personal injury.
Some states do not allow a limitation of how long an implied warranty last. Some states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of inci-
dental or consequential damages for consumer products. In such states, the limitation or exclusion of the Limited Warranty may not
apply. This Limited Warranty gives the owner specific legal rights. The owner may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
The owner is advised to consult applicable state laws for full determination of rights.

Installation
Overview
While the NXD-500i is designed to fit into pre-existing NXD-CV5 touch panel sites, the actual installation differs from
that of the NXD-CV5 is several significant ways.
The NXD-500i can be installed either directly into the (optional) CB-TP5i Rough-In Box or another solid surface
environment, using either solid surface screws or the included locking tabs for different mounting options.
The NXD-500i is contained within a clear outer housing known as the backbox (FIG. 3). This back box is removed when
installing the device into a wall or into a Rough-In Box.
Because of the back box, the device may be installed into either a pre-wall surface using a CB-TP5i conduit/wallbox, or
into a solid surface using the included locking tabs or either solid surface or drywall screws.
Installing the Trim Ring
The outer Trim Ring is secured to the Faceplate with plastic latches. The Trim Ring must first be removed to install the
touch panel, and is later re-secured when installation is complete.
1. Place the Button Trim Ring, latch side down, atop the Faceplate.
2. Firmly press down around the Button Trim Ring until all of the latches are securely inserted into their openings on
the Faceplate, and the Button Trim Ring is securely fastened. Verify that the Button Trim Ring is firmly inserted
onto the Faceplate and that no gaps remain between this Trim Ring and the outer surface of the Faceplate.
3. Place the Faceplate back onto the device. Make sure to align the Microphone, Light, and PIR Motion sensor
locations on the main unit to their respective openings on the Faceplate assembly.
Removing the Faceplate
In certain circumstances, the Faceplate must be removed and replaced with a new faceplate. Because the device is
installed against a wall, the faceplate must be removed carefully to prevent the two top prongs on the underside of the
Faceplate from being broken.
1. Gently lift up on the faceplate from the bottom. Do NOT pull up from the sides or the top.
2. Let the faceplate fall forward from the top of the device and let it pivot from the bottom.
3. Remove the faceplate from the two bottom prongs and install the new trim ring if necessary.

4. Place the Faceplate back onto the device. Make sure to align the Microphone, Light, and PIR Motion sensor
locations on the device to their respective openings on the Faceplate assembly.
Installing the NXD-500i Touch Panel
The NXD-500i can be installed either directly into the (optional) CB-TP5i Rough-In Box or other solid surface
environment, using solid surface screws or the included locking tabs as mounting options.
The following sections describe mounting the touch panel directly into a pre-wall rough-in box, a solid surface, drywall,
or an NXA-RK5 Rack Mount Kit.
Pre-Wall Installation of the Rough-In Box
The CB-TP5i Rough-In Box (FG038-11) is an optional metallic box that is secured onto a stud/beam in a pre-wall
setting, where no walls are present.
Installation procedures and configurations can vary, depending on the installation environment. This section describes
the installation procedures for the most common installation scenarios.
1. Attach the optional Back Cover for the CB-TP5i (FG038-12) if necessary.
2. Fasten the CB-TP5i Rough-In Box to the stud through the holes on the Stud Mounting tabs (FIG. 4), using either
nails or screws.
3. Remove the appropriate wiring knockouts from the rough-in box (FIG. 4) to accommodate the cables being
threaded through to the NXD-500i touch panel.
4. Thread the incoming Ethernet and USB wiring through the knockouts. Use of the left wiring knockouts are
recommended with this installation. Leave enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the
panel.
In order to guarantee a stable installation of the NXD-500i, the distance between the
CB-TP5i and the outer wall surface must be a minimum of .50 inches (1.27cm) and a
maximum of .875 inches (2.22cm).
Cutting out the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation
drawings, to allow any necessary cutout adjustments, is highly recommended.

5. Install the drywall/sheetrock before inserting the main NXD-500i device into the CB-TP5i.
Installing the NXD-500i within a Rough-In Box
The Rough-In Box must be mounted prior to continuing this section. Refer to the procedures in the Pre-Wall Installation
of the Rough-In Box section on page 6 for detailed pre-wall installation instructions. Verify that all necessary cables have
been threaded through the knockouts on the left of the Rough-In Box and the connections have been tested prior to
installation of the NXD-500i.
1. Remove the Faceplate bezel (A in FIG. 5) from the main NXD-500i unit (B in FIG. 5) by gripping the faceplate
from the top and lifting up and then pulling with gentle outward force.
2. Gently unscrew the two screws attaching the NXD-500i to its back box. These are at the bottom of the device,
underneath the touch screen. Carefully remove the NXD-500i from the back box.
3. Thread the incoming Ethernet and USB wiring from their terminal locations through the surface opening. Leave
enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the panel.
4. Push the back box into the wall opening. Insure that the locking tabs lie flush against the back box.
5. Extend the locking tabs on the sides of the back box by tightening the screws inside the box. Not all of the tabs must
be extended to lock the back box in place, but extending a minimum of the top and bottom tabs is highly
recommended. Apply enough pressure to the screw head to keep the box flush with the wall: this ensures that the
locking tabs will tighten up against the inside of the wall.
The back box is clear to allow visual confirmation that the tabs have been extended and are gripping the wall. This
also allows visual confirmation if the entire assembly has to be removed from the wall for any reason.

Be sure to pull the faceplate UP before pulling it out and away from the rest of the
device. Pulling straight outward may lead to damage to the faceplate, including
breaking off the tabs that attach the faceplate to the device.
While the screws are loosened, you can adjust the LCD to ensure it is parallel to the
sides of the backbox, if necessary. While adjusting the LCD is possible, it is not
required in most cases.

the installation.
8. Install the NXD-500i into the back box.
9. The microphone cable is taped to the back box. Connect the microphone cable to its connector, making sure that the
cable does not interfere with reattachment of the Faceplate.
10. Install the two Plastite screws attaching the NXD-500i to the back box (FIG. 5).
11. Place the Faceplate/Trim Ring assembly (Ain FIG. 5) back onto the main NXD-500i unit (B in FIG. 5). Make sure
to align the Microphone, Light, and PIR Motion sensor locations to their respective openings on the front faceplate/
bezel.
12. Reconnect the terminal Ethernet and USB to their respective locations on the Ethernet port and NetLinx Master.
Installing the NXD-500i Into Drywall
The NXD-500i comes with a clear plastic backbox (FIG. 6) designed to attach the panel to standard drywall. This
backbox has a locking tab on three of the four faces (missing only on the face containing the space for the connections)
to help lock the backbox to the wall.
These locking tabs are only extended AFTER the backbox is inserted into the wall.
Refer to the diagram for detailed installation dimensions as shown in FIG. 7.
Cutting out the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation drawings, in order to make any
necessary cutout adjustments, is highly recommended.
The maximum recommended torque to screw in the locking tabs on the back box is 5
IN-LB [56 N-CM]. Applying excessive torque while tightening the locking tab screws,
such as with powered screwdrivers, can strip out the tabs or damage the back box.
Do not disconnect the connectors from the touch panel. The unit must be installed
with the attached connectors before being inserted into the Rough-In Box.

When installing the backbox, make absolutely sure that the assembly is in the correct
position and in the correct place.
Once the locking tabs are extended and locked into place, removing the backbox will
be very difficult without having access to the back of the wall itself or damaging the
wall.
