Industry Compliance
As of the date of manufacture, the TPS-12, TPS-15, and TPS-17 have been tested
and found to comply with specifications for CE marking and standards per EMC and
Radiocommunications Compliance Labelling.
NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Network Wiring
CAUTION: In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your
installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire, and only Crestron Certified Wire, may
be used. Failure to do so may incur additional charges if support is required to
identify performance deficiencies as a result of using improper wire.
CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment. Failure to
do so could cause equipment damage or void the Crestron warranty.
¥ Tilt Touchpanels: TPS-12/15/17 Operations Guide – DOC. 6375
14
Crestron Isys® TPS-12/15/17 Tilt Touchpanels
CAUTION: Provide sufficient power to the system. 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
(http://www.crestron.com/calculators
When calculating the length of wire for a particular Cresnet run, the wire gauge and
the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be connected must be taken into
consideration. Use Crestron Certified Wire only. If Cresnet units are to be daisychained on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be daisychained must be added together to determine the Cresnet power usage of the entire
chain. If the unit is a home-run from a Crestron system power supply network port,
the Cresnet power usage of that unit is the Cresnet power usage of the entire run. The
wire gauge and the Cresnet power usage of the run should be used in the following
equation to calculate the cable length value on the equation’s left side.
Cable Length Equation
40,000
Where:
L <
R x P
Make sure the cable length value is less than the value calculated on the right side of
the equation. For example, a Cresnet run drawing 20 watts should not have a length
of run more than 333 feet.
).
L = Length of run (or chain) in feet.
R = 6 Ohms (Crestron Certified Wire: 18 AWG (0.75 MM
P = Cresnet power usage of entire run (or chain).
2
))
NOTE: All Crestron certified Cresnet wiring must consist of two twisted pairs. One
twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND conductor, and the other twisted
pair is the Y conductor and the Z conductor.
NOTE: When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to
avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on
the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends
of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle.
Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining
screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
NOTE: For larger networks (i.e., greater than 28 network devices), it may become
necessary to add a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain signal quality
throughout the network. Also, for networks with lengthy cable runs, it may be
necessary to add a Hub/Repeater after only 20 devices.
QuickMedia Network Wiring
For the QuickMedia (QM) transport, use CresCAT-QM cable. The Crestron
QuickMedia cable “CresCAT-QM” contains one CAT5E cable and one Cresnet
cable in siamese jackets.
CresCAT-QM Cable
NOTE: Do not untwist the two wires in a single pair for more than 1/3-1/2"
(0.84 – 1.27 cm) when making a connection. The twists are critical to canceling out
interference between the wires.

Tilt Touchpanels Crestron Isys® TPS-12/15/17
The aggregate cable length of a signal path originating at a QM transmitter and
terminating at the TPS-12/15/17 must not exceed 328 feet (100 meters). Video
signals may experience a loss of quality over very long lengths of cable. This
phenomenon is due to the added resistance and capacitance of longer cable lengths,
and is not particular to either Crestron and/or QuickMedia systems. To ensure
sufficient bandwidth, the maximum aggregate cable length should not exceed 328
feet. The use of lower-resolution signals may allow increased cable length but must
be tested by the installer with the sources to be used. The QM pin assignment is
based on the EIA/TIA 568B RJ-45 Jack standard.
When connecting multiple QM devices, the route between a QM origination point
(transmitter) and a QM endpoint (receiver) cannot have more than two midpoints
(e.g., QM-MD7x2 or other QM switchers). Refer to the following diagram when
configuring a QM network.
QM Network Topology
Identity Code
All equipment and user interfaces within the network require a unique identity code
(Net ID). These codes are two-digit hexadecimal numbers ranging from 03 to FE
(Net ID 02 is reserved for control processors). The Net ID of each unit must match
an ID code specified in the SIMPL Windows program. The Net ID is set using the
internal setup menu (refer to “Interface Menu” on page 18). The Net ID may also be
changed using Crestron Toolbox (refer to “Establishing Communications” on page
43).
Configuring the Touchpanel
NOTE: The only connection required to configure the touchpanel is power (supplied
via Cresnet). Refer to “Hardware Hookup” on page 24 for details.
To configure the unit, it may be necessary to access a series of setup screens prior to
viewing run-time screens that are loaded into the touchpanel for normal operation.
The MAIN MENU for configuring the touchpanel appears when a finger is held to
the touchscreen as power is applied, or after the hardware reset button is pressed and
released. Remove your finger when the message "SETUP MODE" briefly appears on
the touchscreen.
Upon entering SETUP MODE, the MAIN MENU, as shown in the following
illustration, displays four buttons: Touch Screen Calibration, Exit and Run
Program, Setup, and Diagnostics.
The Exit and Run Program button verifies that all of the setup information has
been saved to the EEPROM and displays the main page that has been programmed
