QUICK START GUIDE
HPX-AV102-USB-R USB 3.0 Module with Retractable
MyTurnTM Ready Cable
Overview
The HydraPort®Retractable Cable Module is designed to be used in conjunction with
the HPX-600/900/1200/1800 or the Hydraport Touch (7”/10”) Connection Port base
assembly, to provide the convenience of various types of cables in a HydraPort System.
The HPX-AV102-USB-R USB 3.0 Module with Retractable Cable (FG552-37) provides a
USB 3.0 cable in a retractable spool that mounts into the HydraPort base assembly
(FIG. 1). USB 3.0 cable features transmission speeds of up to 5 Gbit/s and supports
charging devices via 4.5W: 5V@900mA charging current.
With the MyTurn™ Source Selection Button (FG554-21) optional accessory,
participants can send their content to a display at the press of a button without moving
from their seat. Any MyTurn-Ready cable may be equipped with the MyTurn solution.
See “Optional MyTurn™ Source Selector Button” on page 2.
Installation
Warning! - Do not attempt to open the retractable cable module enclosure. There are
no serviceable parts inside the module.
- Opening the module enclosure may result in an uncontrolled release of spring
forces which could cause serious injury and/or equipment damage.
- Opening the module enclosure will void the product warranty.
Warning! - installation of the Hydraport in the table should ensure the pull-out length
of the cable can reach all potential users of connectivity, as excessively pulling on a
fully extended cable can irreparably damage the retractor module.
Caution: Only use a hand-held #2 Phillips-head screwdriver for mounting this unit. Over-
tightening the screws can hinder performance or damage the unit.
For existing HPX installations, the HPX base must be removed from the mounting
surface. See “Existing Installations” on page 2. for HPX Base removal instructions.
1. Remove the (silver) pivot screw in the center of the End Cap (FIG. 2). There is an
internal tooth washer underneath it. Keep them together for re-installation.
2. Remove the four (black) sheet metal screws that secure the two-piece End Cap to
the HPX assembly (additional top two screws only on one-piece end cap models).
3. Gently slide the End Cap out of the HPX base assembly.
The HPX-AV102-USB-R RCM cable cartridge mounts from underneath the table to
simplify installation and upgrade of retractable cable modules. This version RCM has a
detachable mounting collar that is installed into the Hydraport base first and then the
cable cartridge is reattached to the mounting collar
Securely holding the HPX-AV102-ETH-R RCM, extract enough cable to lay the cable
cartridge on the floor while installing the mounting collar into the HPX Base Assembly
(~3ft). When extracting 5 foot (1.5m) cable from the RCM, follow these simple steps:
4. Pull up to 1.5 meters of cable straight up out of the RCM and then lay it down.
5. Watch for a red tape on the cable when extracting. It is a warning to slow pull for
the final 1 foot to avoid damage to the RCM (FIG. 3).
6. Pull the cable cartridge trigger (FIG. 4) to release the mounting collar tongue.
7. Lift the mounting collar away from the cable cartridge until the tongue is clear and
then slide to the side to clear the hook.
8. Feed the mounting collar up through the table cutout to reach the HPX base
assembly. Align the mounting notches on the mounting collar with the mounting
rails on the HPX (FIG. 4).
Note: Module mounting collars are notched in a “tongue and groove" type fashion
to ensure that all modules are oriented correctly in the HPX. Note the orientation of
the notched mounting collar on each module before sliding the module(s) into the
HPX assembly.
9. Slide the mounting collar into position.
10. Install any remaining module mounting collars into the HPX base.
Re-Install the End-Cap
Caution: Do not use a high-powered torque screw driver. Over-tightening these screws
can damage the product.
1. Align the mounting notches on the end cap with the mounting rails on the HPX base.
2. Slide the End Cap into the HPX base until it is fully inserted against the end of the
base assembly. Watch out for the tension spring under the pivot pawl popping the
pivot pawl off the end cap while pressing against the lid pivot point.
3. Secure the End Cap with the 4 to 6 (black) sheet metal screws (FIG. 2).
4. Replace the (silver) pivot screw in the center of the End Cap.

Mount the HPX into the Mounting Surface
Caution: Do not use a high-powered torque screw driver. Over-tightening these screws
can damage the product.
Note: For detailed instructions on installing the HPX base assembly, refer to the HPX-
600/900/1200/1800 and HydraPort Touch (7”/10”) Installation Guides (available
online at www.amx.com).
1. Carefully insert the HPX base into the cutout in the mounting surface.
2. Tighten the four mounting screws (FIG. 8) located inside and at each end of the
HPX base assembly, to rotate the retaining tabs (FIG. 9) into locking position
under the mounting surface.
3. Minding the twist in the cable, feed the excess cable up through the mounting
collar and insert the cable cartridge hook into the mounting collar cutout.
Note: If a twist in the cable occurs from rotating the cassette before insertion, the
cable will bind and will not retract fully.
4. Push the cable cartridge trigger up onto the mounting collar tongue until it
latches (opposite of FIG. 4).
5. Use the Push button to retract the cable into the cartridge.
6. Attach the display ends of the cables as necessary.
7. Use cable ties to secure cable bundles as necessary.
The under-table end connector is a Male Type A. Included adapters:
• Female Type A to Female Type A (resulting in a Female Type A)
• Female Type A to Male Type B (resulting in a Male Type B)
Mounting Dimensions
FIG. 6 provides dimensions for the retractable cable module, when installed in an HPX-
600/900/1200/1800 or HPX-MSP-07/10 base assembly.
Optional MyTurn™ Source Selector Button
The optional HPA-MYT-TX MyTurn™ Source Selector Button (FG554-21), it clips into the
specially designed groove built into the end of a MyTurn ready cable. Users press to
send the content on their device to the display. When pressed, the button transmits a
signal to an optional receiver (FG554-23) that plugs directly into an AMX switching
device such as a Solecis SDX, Enova DVX, or NX Series Controller.
MyTurn Source Selector Buttons are illuminated briefly when that specific device is
selected, making it easy to determine whose content is being shown on the display at
any given time. Refer to the HPA-MYT-TX documentation for further details.
Existing Installations
For existing HPX installations, the HPX Base Assembly must be removed from the table
surface before the Retractable Cable Modules can be installed.
Note: It may be necessary to reorient existing 1st generation RCMs in the chassis to
ensure they fit against the non lip edge of MyTurn-Ready 2nd generation RCMs.
Otherwise a 1/2 M blank panel (FG558-01) or other non retractable cable module needs
to be installed between the 1st Generation and MyTurn-Ready 2nd Generation RCMs.
1. Cut/remove any cable ties that restrict the removal of the HPX Base Assembly.
2. Loosen four screws located inside and at each end of the HPX base assembly
(FIG. 8), in order to rotate the retaining tabs from under the mounting surface.
Note: When the cover of the HPX base is open, only two of these screws are visible.
To access the other two screws, tip the cover over to the opposite open position.
3. Once the retaining tabs have been rotated out from under the mounting surface,
the HPX assembly can be lifted away from the mounting surface.
FIG. 9 provides a cutaway view of the End Cap, showing the retaining tabs
highlighted in both the loose position and the tightened (secure) position.
4. Return to the installation section at the bottom left column of page 1 to continue
with installing the RCM into the HPX Base assembly.
Replacing MyTurn-Ready RCMs
Removal of the HPX Base assembly is not required to replace this RCM:
1. Detach the cable cartridge from the mounting collar (FIG. 4).
2. From the top of the mounting collar, press a small flat blade screwdriver into the
notch on the split side of the pop out panel and pop it out of place (FIG. 10)..
3. Slip the cable out through the mounting collar panel.
4. Replace with new RCM in reverse order ensuring the cable is not twisted and the
pop out panel split is oriented towards the notch in the collar.
