Tactile Controls
An integrated 5-way thumbpad and up/down arrow buttons add quick access and
tactile response for controlling functions ranging from simple volume adjustment
and channel selection to on-screen menu navigation or even pan/tilt camera control.
Four additional “hard key” buttons are positioned below the touchscreen,
programmable for context sensitive menu functions. A stylus is even included for use
with the on-screen keyboard, conveniently stowed in its own storage slot.
Biometric Scanner
The built-in fingerprint scanner unleashes a whole new level of convenience and
security, allowing individual users to be identified instantly and logged on
automatically. With just the touch of a fingertip, each user can be presented with a
unique graphical interface with its own set of preferences, access privileges and even
its own look through the use of touchpanel “skins”.
Embedded PC
The power of Isys i/O is in its embedded PC engine, combining rock solid
touchpanel performance with built-in Windows Media
Internet Explorer, Adobe® Acrobat® Reader and Microsoft Word, Excel and
PowerPoint® document viewers. While simultaneously controlling your home
theater, boardroom or lecture hall, the TPMC-8T provides everything needed for
enjoying online music and movies, viewing Web pages and accessing most types of
digital media without necessitating a separate computer.
®
Support for Windows
and Web based content such as news feeds, sports scores, stock tickers, weather
alerts, media guides, email messages and appointment notifications all through a
simple network connection to a Windows Vista™ computer.
VNC viewer support delivers enhanced cross-platform interaction with remote
computers over the network or Internet, allowing access and control of desktop
applications with live presentation capability.
Built on the Windows XP Embedded operating system, the TPMC-8T delivers a
powerful and secure platform for touchpanel control with integrated PC capabilities.
Programmatic control erases the lines between control system and PC, allowing
programmers to customize each application’s behavior within the touchpanel
environment to create a truly powerful and user-friendly interface.
SideShow™ gives the TPMC-8T access to all kinds of PC
®
Player and RealPlayer®,
Streaming Video
For presentation preview, surveillance or pure entertainment, the TPMC-8T makes it
easy to view security cameras, movies and other video sources right on the
touchscreen. In addition to the wide range of streaming video formats supported by
its onboard media player applications, the TPMC-8T also features native support for
video over IP from a variety of third-party Web cameras and servers using the
motion JPEG format.
Audio Features
Built-in stereo speakers and headphone output provide clear audio for streaming
media and internal PC applications and enable 2-way intercom and VoIP
communications in combination with the integrated microphone. Customized WAV
files can be loaded on the touchpanel to add dimension to the touchscreen graphics
with personalized sounds, button feedback and voice prompts.

Crestron TPMC-8T Isys i/O™ 8.4” TableTop WiFi Touchpanel
Intercom and Telephone
Built-in IP intercom capability facilitates direct panel-to-panel intercom and
monitoring right over the wired or wireless LAN. New Crestron SIP phone allows
2-way communication between touchpanels as well as with traditional PSTN (public
switched telephone network) telephones and other SIP/VoIP phones.
NOTE: SIP Phone requires a high speed LAN and/or broadband connection and a
connection to a SIP server or SIP-based Internet phone (VoIP) service provider.
Wi-Fi Wireless
In addition to its high speed wired Ethernet connection, the TPMC-8T also includes
built-in 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi technology with WEP encryption, allowing for secure,
high speed 2-way wireless communications whenever a wired connection is not
available. Either solution can be used to attain seamless communications with
Crestron
devices.

Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the Ethernet network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system (www.crestron.com/calculators
Unlike other Crestron network devices, the TPMC-8T does not use Cresnet for
communications between the device and the control system. The TPMC-8T requires
the use of a high-speed Ethernet connection for control system communications.

For information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the
latest version of the Crestron e-Control
available from the Crestron website (www.crestron.com/manuals
Reference Guide (Doc. 6052), which is
).
Identity Code
The IP ID is set within the TPMC-8T’s table using Crestron Toolbox™. For
information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file. The IP IDs
of multiple TPMC-8T devices in the same system must be unique.
When setting the IP ID, consider the following:
• The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the SIMPL™
Windows
• Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a
unique IP ID.

Touch Screen
When Touch Screen is touched, the calibration screen will be displayed. Touch the
screen to begin the calibration process. If the screen is not touched within 10
seconds, the calibration sequence will stop and the screen will again display the
setup menu.
If the screen is touched within the 10-second timeout, it displays a series of messages
indicating that you should touch the red square in five places around the screen.
These messages will appear sequentially starting with “Touch the red square” at the
top of the screen toward the upper left corner. Touch and hold the center of the red
square to initiate calibration. The message will say “Hold…” for a few seconds, then
change to “Lift off to proceed”. Touch the displayed squares as prompted
everywhere they appear around the screen until the calibration is complete and you
are returned to the setup menu.
NOTE: When touching the screen during calibration, be as accurate as possible.
Use the tip of the included stylus. To cancel calibration and return to the setup menu
without saving calibration data, ignore the “Touch the red square” message. After
about 10 seconds, the setup menu will be displayed. If a USB keyboard is attached to
the touchpanel, you can also press the Escape key (Esc) to cancel calibration and
return to the setup menu.
NOTE: The touchpanel’s calibration routine can also be accessed through Crestron
Toolbox if the touchpanel is connected to a control system via TCP/IP. From the
System Info page, select Functions | Setup Mode…. Select Enter Calibration
Mode to begin calibration.
