  • Page 12 NOTE: If the TPS touchpanel is equipped with an optional TPS-XVGA or TPS-XVGA-BV expansion card, the fan assembly on the card must be removed because it interferes with the placement of the TPS-XTXRF. Removal will not introduce cooling problems because the TPS-XTXRF has fans for adequate air circulation.
  • Page 13 NOTE: If the TPS touchpanel is equipped with an optional TPS-XVGA or TPS-XVGA-BV expansion card, temporarily removing the card makes installation of the TPS-XTXRF cable connectors easier. However, re-installation of the card requires a #1 Phillips screwdriver (1.5” length). Installation Diagram 5 of 12 - Position TPS-XTXRF onto Touchpanel Operations &...

  • Page 19: Configuring The Touchpanel For Operation

    STX1550C_*.SMW. Configuring the Touchpanel for Operation The touchpanel with the TPS-XTXRF installed can operate as a Cresnet or RF device. The operation of the touchpanel is determined by the attachment of the NET/VIDEO cable to the touchpanel. To use the touchpanel as a Cresnet wired unit, connect the NET/VIDEO cable to the NET/VIDEO port of the touchpanel.
  • Page 20 Two-Way RF Transceiver Module RF Configuration Crestron Isys To configure the TPS-XTXRF equipped touchpanel for RF communication, it is necessary to access a series of setup screens on the touchpanel. NOTE: For additional touchpanel configuration information, consult the appropriate Isys from the Downloads | Product Manuals section of the Crestron website (www.crestron.com).
  • Page 21: Vt Pro-E Analog Join Number

    For the TPS-XTXRF equipped touchpanel, analog join number 17507 may be used for a TPS-BTP battery gauge. There is also another analog join number 17514 that is used to determine the state of the battery pack.
  • Page 22: Problem Solving

    NOTE: To minimize system diagnostics and troubleshooting, Crestron recommends defining the touchpanel as a wired unit in SIMPL Windows, then test functionality as a wired network device prior to testing the TPS-XTXRF transceiver operations. This will help in determining whether there is a programming problem, RF setting conflict or RF interference in the environment.
