12 Inch Tilt/Lectern Touchpanels
INTERFACE MENU
12 • 12 Inch Tilt/Lectern Touchpanels: TPS-4500 & TPS-4500L
NOTE: All touchpanel settings are automatically saved in non-volatile memory.
NOTE: If the TPS-VIDL-2 or TPS-VID-2 is installed, two video buttons will be
displayed; "Video 1" and "Video 2". Press the button to change settings for the
respective video source.
The touchpanel display can be turned off (standby mode) when not in active use.
STANDBY TIMEOUT, located in the middle of the SETUP MENU, can turn off
the touchpanel when it is inactive for a specified time frame (minutes, shown as 30
in the illustration). When the touchpanel is activated, the last screen to be displayed
reappears. Minutes can vary from 0 to 120, where 0 disables the timeout. DOWN
and UP buttons decrease and increase the timeout, respectively.
Screen brightness may need to be altered because of ambient light conditions or
personal preference. BRIGHTNESS, located in the lower left corner of the SETUP
MENU, can change the brightness level of the display. The current brightness setting
is shown as a percentage in the SETUP MENU (e.g., 99% brightness is shown in the
illustration). Percentage can vary from 0% (low brightness) to 100% (full
brightness). DOWN and UP buttons decrease and increase the brightness,
respectively.
Interface Menu
The touchpanel communicates with a control system to activate commands or to
display feedback from components within the system. The communication interface
must be correctly specified or communication will not occur. To set communication
parameters select the Interface button located on the SETUP MENU and display the
INTERFACE MENU, shown to the left.
The Cresnet network identity number (CRESNET ID) is displayed on the
INTERFACE MENU. CRESNET ID is the two-digit hexadecimal number. The
hexadecimal number can range from 03 to FE and must correspond to the Net ID set
in the SIMPL Windows program of the Cresnet system. Matching IDs between
touchpanel and SIMPL Windows program is required if data is to be successfully
transferred. Net ID for the TPS-4500/L is factory set to 03, and no two devices in the
same system can have the same ID.
Two buttons adjacent to the hexadecimal display, UP and DOWN, increase and
decrease the CRESNET ID by one, respectively.
The touchpanel usually communicates with a Cresnet system. Occasionally the
touchpanel can be used in a demo mode where it merely displays various menus, but
does not communicate with a Cresnet system. In demo mode, the directory buttons
change pages, but buttons requiring feedback do not work. Two side-by-side buttons
to the right of the CRESNET ID, Enable CRESNET II and Disable CRESNET II,
determine communication mode. Select Enable CRESNET II for normal Cresnet
communication mode and Disable CRESNET II to set the touchpanel into demo
mode. Text within the selected button changes color from black to red.
Communication mode is factory set to Enable CRESNET II.
It is possible to maintain touchpanel control (with the Enable Touch Screen button)
while communicating via RS-232 with the console or non-Crestron device.
Otherwise, choose Disable Touch Screen to discontinue touchpanel control. Text
within the selected button changes color from black to red.
The TPS-4500 is capable of wireless communication with a control system when
equipped with the optional TPS-XTXRF Two-Way RF Transceiver Module and
Crestron TPS-4500 & TPS-4500L
