Ensure that both your USB and HDMI cables are of sufficient length. Following the diagram provided:

 

1. HDMI Connection:

Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the NDP500’s HDMI OUT port.  Connect the other end to the HDMI port of the IFP.

2. USB Connection:

To enable the touch functionality, also connect the USB cable from the NDP500 to the IFP.

เริ่มต้นสำหรับการติดตั้ง Q-Nex Digital Podium NDP500

Refer to the installation guide video for instructions on powering on the NDP500, binding it to the Q- NEX Console, and accessing the network.

To ensure a smooth initial setup, follow these steps to power on the NDP500, connect it to the network, and establish control via the Q-NEX Console.

1. Power on the A “beep” sound indicates that the machine has successfully started.
2. Connect the NDP500 to a router using an Ethernet This ensures that the NDP500 acquires an IP address.

Note:

If your location has network restrictions, contact your network administrator for assistance with this step. Refer to the “Appendix – Network Environment Requirement” section for specific network requirements for the NDP500.

3. Retrieve the NDP IP address by logging into the Dashboard and visiting the ‘Devices >> Processor Manage Identify your NDP500 and note the IP address from the ‘IP Address’ column.

Enter this IP on the Touch Panel and click ‘Connect’.” to establish a connection with the NDP500

1. Input the NDP IP address on the Touch Click the “Connect” button to connect NDP by Touch Panel.\

Power control

This section governs the power management and operational control of connected devices through interfaces like Display, Up-Down, and External connectors. Users can regulate power distribution and device states by NDP500.

Refer to the video at 4:35 for instructions on making a C14 cable and connecting it to the External, Display, and Up-Down ports.

Power Specifications:

1. NDP500 maximum power:
2. DISPALY port maximum power:
3. UP-DOWN port maximum power: 300W
4. EXTERNAL port maximum power: (Acts as a switch, the power does not count towards NDP500’s total power consumption)

The DISPLAY interface serves to provide power to display devices such as IFPs and projectors. Additionally, it facilitates controlled shutdown procedures (with RS232 port) for these devices to mitigate the risk of damage caused by sudden power loss.

The diagram above illustrates the correct wiring for the NDP500’s DISPLAY interfaces. It is crucial to connect the neutral (N), live (L), and ground (G) wires correctly to ensure safe operation.

Connection Steps:

1. Replace the device plug with the C14 Refer to 3.1 C14 Connector Installation Guide for C14 connector installation instructions.
2. Connect the C14 connector to the DISPLAY port of the
3. Devices can still be powered on of off by solely connecting to the DISPLAY

Note:

For devices requiring controlled shutdown and delayed power-off settings (For example: IFP, projector), connect them to the NDP500’s RS232 port. This ensures that devices receive proper shutdown instructions before power is cut off, and allows for adequate cooling before shutting down completely.

After completing the wiring, you can use the Q-NEX software platform (such as the Touch Panel) to control the DISPLAY port:

UP-DOWN

The UP-DOWN interface on the NDP500 is designed specifically for controlling motorized projection screens, allowing users to raise or lower the screen remotely via the NDP’s control options, including the Q- NEX Console, mobile app, or Touch Panel.

Connection Steps:

1. Replace the existing plug of the projection screen.
2. Wire Configuration:

Connect the “UP” wire to the 1 pin of the C14 plug.

Connect the “DOWN” wire to the 3 pin of the C14 plug.

Connect the “Neutral” (N) wire to the 2 pin of the C14 plug.

3. Connect to the UP-DWON
4. Connect the other end of the wires to the corresponding terminals on the projection screen

Note: This wiring configuration is exclusively for use with projection screen curtains.

After completing the required wiring setup, users can perform up and down operations using the Touch Panel, Web Console, or Q-NEX APP.

EXTERNAL Equipment Connect

The EXTERNAL interface on the NDP500 enables flexible lighting control. Users can directly manage lighting or integrate it with an SPDT switch for customized automation and centralized control. Control settings can be adjusted via the Touch Panel and Web Console.

After completing the wiring for the external port, you can control it on the Touch Panel and Web-Console.There are two methods to achieve lighting control with NDP: direct connection and integration with an SPDT

IR Control

Refer to the video at 5:28 for instructions on connecting IR ports, learning IR codes, and binding IR devices, including air conditioners and other IR-enabled devices.

The NDP500 is equipped with both an IR IN and an IR OUT interface, allowing users to manage IR devices efficiently.

To control IR-enabled devices (e.g., air conditioner, TV, projector), NDP500 supports batch application of infrared control codes, enabling efficient control without repetitive learning. Here’s a simplified guide for using IR functionality with an air conditioning unit:

1. Check if your air conditioner brand is in the Q-NEX If your air conditioner is recognized in the Q-NEX database, identify the control codes to manage and control it through the Touch Panel or Web- console. Q-Nex Digital Podium NDP500
2. If not in the database, use IR Learning on the Touch Panel or Web-console for Q-Nex Digital Podium NDP500

 Air Conditioner-Identified in the code database
