Migrating from G4 to G5
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The newest Modero X touch panels are based on G5, the latest operating
system from AMX. Please review the programmer’s primer regarding G4 to G5
differences, located at http://www.amx.com/products/TPDesign5.asp. G4 touch
panel files must be converted to G5-compatible files before use with G5
touch panels. Use the G4 Utility tool to convert panel pages from G4 to G5.
Refer to the Configuration and Programming Guide for Modero X Series G5
Touch Panels for information regarding NetLinx code modifications required
to support G5 panels.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Known Issues/Requests

* AMXCF-2062 Modero G5 panels: Panel cannot open a file larger than 90MB
* AMXCF-2063 Modero G5 panels: 7" display will exhibit jitter during the "AMX" logo at the beginning of bootup
