MVP-WDS-9 Wall/Flush Docking Station
Overview
While charging the MVP-9000i, the Power-over-Ethernet MVP-WDS-9 Wall/
Flush Mount Docking Station provides fast, reliable wired Ethernet 
communication to the touch panel. In addition, the MVP-WDS-9 employs a 
unique, anti-theft locking mechanism to keep the touch panel safe and secure. 
With a push of a button, the panel glides forward for simple removal and 
transport. 
The Wall/Flush Docking Station is available in either white (FG5967-13) or black 
(FG5967-12).    
The features of the MVP-WDS-9 include: 
• Touch panel password feature for security
• Integrated docking alignment guides for easy docking
Specifications
The MVP-9000i panel remains locked in the MVP-WDS-9 until unlocked by the 
user. This may be done by pressing the Security Release button and then 
entering an appropriate password (please refer to the MVP-9000i Operation/
Reference Guide, available from www.amx.com, for more information). The 
station ejects the MVP-9000i device top first (FIG. 2). 
The device uses two neodymium rare-earth magnets to secure the MVP-9000i to 
the cradle when the touch panel is angled forward. 
Unlocking the Touch Panel
Once placed within the Wall Docking Station, the MVP-9000i remains secured 
until the user unlocks it. To release the touch panel from the Wall Docking 
Station:
1. Press the Security Release button.
2. A password keypad will pop up on the MVP-9000i screen. Enter a 
password in the password keypad and press Enter.
3. Wait for the Wall Docking Station to pivot the touch panel away from the 
wall.
4. The device will remain in the ejected position until the MVP-9000i is 
removed. Wait until the device’s ejection door has completely withdrawn 
before re-installing the MVP-9000i.
Recharging
To recharge the MVP-9000i:
1. Slide the device into the Wall Docking Station cradle bottom-first and make 
sure the device is fully seated in the Docking Station. 
2. Press the top of the MVP-9000i back until it clicks. The touch panel is now 
locked into the Docking Station, and the station will automatically charge 
the device’s battery. 
3. To release the touch panel, press the Security Release button, enter the 
password (if activated), and wait for the Wall Docking Station to pivot the 
touch panel away from the wall.
