Connection of a PC to the TPS-4500/L touchpanel can be direct via the RS-232 port
on the touchpanel or through a control system (Cresnet). Both methods of connection
provide setup for RS-232 communication.
To prepare the TPS-4500/L for uploading or upgrading, refer to the following figure
for a typical connection diagram.

To prepare the TPS-4500/L for uploading or upgrading directly from a PC, refer to
the following figure. Connect the RS-232 port of the computer directly to the RS-232
port of the touchpanel. Refer to page 16 for RS-232 cable information.
NOTE: Directly connecting to the touchpanel over RS-232 provides a faster
transmission speed than Cresnet.
