Crestron Isys® Tilt Touchpanels: TPS-12/15/17 Introduction Features and Functions The Crestron Isys® TPS-12, TPS-15 and TPS-17 family of tilt touchpanels offer high brightness and contrast combined with a super wide viewing angle to deliver crisp, detailed images under all conditions. For simplicity within this guide, these touchpanels are referred to as TPS-12/15/17, except where noted. These touchpanels are QuickMediaTM compatible. The features and specifications for all three touchpanels are identical (except those relating to the screen). The touchpanels are available with a variety of color bezels (ex. black with silver accent, white with gray accent), and are designated with a -B or -W respectively.

Sound can be generated by the panel by using downloaded wave files (.WAV) or can be mixed in from an external line level audio source or a QuickMedia input. The TPS-12/15/17 touchpanels are also equipped with balanced output for microphone audio that can be connected to a Crestron CNX-BIPAD8 or similar Crestron CAT5 audio receiver. Video The TPS-12/15/17 touchpanels can display a single video window per page, and use auto-detect for composite, S-video, component, NTSC and PAL formats. These touchpanels support SDTV formats (does not support HD). Two video inputs provide for connectivity to QuickMedia and PVID video distribution switches (CNX-PVID8X3 or CNX-PVID8X4). 2 ¥ Tilt Touchpanels: TPS-12/15/17 Operations Guide ­ DOC. 6375 Crestron Isys® TPS-12/15/17 QuickMediaTM Tilt Touchpanels While acting as a QuickMedia (QM) receiver, the TPS-12/15/17 touchpanels can be connected as an endpoint to a QM switching device or QM transmitter. NOTE: The TPS-12/15/17 does not support RGB. Connectivity The TPS-12/15/17 touchpanels feature a Cresnet and a high-speed Ethernet port for seamless communication with Crestron control systems, and computers.
