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. The Net ID for the TPS-4500V/LV 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-4500V is capable of wireless communication with a control system when
equipped with the optional TPS-XTXRF Two-Way RF Transceiver Module and
TPS-RFGWX Two-Way RF Transceiver. Choosing Enable RF (found on TPS-
4500V when equipped with the TPS-XTXRF) enables the RF mode. For more
information on configuring a touchpanel with an RF interface, refer to the latest
revision of the TPS-XTXRF Two-Way RF Transceiver Module Operations and
Installation Guide (Doc. 5844).
NOTE: If the TPS-4500V is to be used without an RF connection, the RF Disabled
button must be selected.
NOTE: If RF is enabled, the RS-232 communication settings cannot be adjusted.
Additionally, when RF is enabled, touchpanel projects cannot be downloaded via
RS-232. They can only be downloaded through Cresnet.
Select the Return button located on the INTERFACE MENU to accept the changes
and return to the SETUP MENU.
