Physical Description
The touch-sensitive viewing screen and “quick” pushbuttons are located on the front
of the TPS-1700. The electronic hardware is housed in a high impact, black molded
plastic enclosure. Connection to the control system is via a 6-pin RJ-11 connector
mounted on the bottom of the unit base. Refer to the illustrations below and on the
next page.

Industry Compliance
As of the date of manufacture, this unit has been tested and found to comply with
specifications for CE marking and standards per EMC and Radio Communications
Compliance Labeling (N11785).
NOTE: These devices comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) these devices may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) these devices must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Setup
Network Wiring
NOTE: When installing network wiring, refer to the latest revision of the wiring
diagram(s) appropriate for your specific system configuration, available from the
Downloads | Product Manuals | Software and Wiring Diagrams section of the
Crestron website (www.crestron.com)
.
When calculating the wire gauge for a particular Cresnet run, the length of the run
and the power factor of each network unit to be connected must be taken into
consideration. If Cresnet units are to be daisy-chained on the run, the power factor of
each unit to be daisy-chained must be added together to determine the power factor
of the entire chain. The length of the run in feet and the power factor of the run
should be used in the following resistance equation to calculate the value on the right
side of the equation.
Resistance Equation
R = Resistance (refer to table below).
R <
40,000
L x PF
Where:
L = Length of run (or chain) in feet .
PF = Power factor of entire run (or chain).
The required wire gauge should be chosen such that the resistance value is less than
the value calculated in the resistance equation. Refer to the following table.

Doubled CAT5

NOTE: All 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.

b
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 be
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
desirable to add a hub/repeater after only 20 network devices.
Identity Code
Every equipment and user interface within the Cresnet system requires a unique
Cresnet identity code (NET ID). These codes are two-digit hexadecimal numbers
from 03 to FE. Refer to “Select Interface” on page 7 for instructions on setting the
unit’s NET ID. The NET ID of the unit must match the NET ID specified in the
SIMPL Windows program. Refer to “Setting the Net ID in Device Settings” on page
12 for details of the SIMPL Windows procedure.
Configuring the Touchpanel
MAIN MENU
This menu can also be obtained via
digital reserved join number, 17242.
CALIBRATION MENU
NOTE: The only connection required to configure the touchpanel is power. Refer to
“Hardware Hookup” on page 9 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
(approx. 5 seconds) to the touchscreen when power is applied.
Upon entering SETUP MODE, the MAIN MENU, shown to the left, displays four
buttons: Touch Screen Calibration, Exit and Run Program, Setup, and
Diagnostics.
Selecting Exit and Run Program verifies that all of the setup information has been
saved to EEPROM and displays the main page that has been programmed into the
touchpanel. The remaining buttons on the MAIN MENU open other menus, which
are discussed in subsequent paragraphs.
Calibration Menu
Calibration of the touchscreen is required if the active touch area of a button does
not coincide with the button's image. Select the Touch Screen Calibration
display the CALIBRATION MENU, as shown to the left. The CALIBRATION
MENU offers the choice to initiate calibration with the Perform Calibration button
or return to the previous screen with the Return button. Choose an option by
touching the appropriate button.
If you need to calibrate the touchpanel, the screen displays the message "Touch
Upper Left" centered on the panel with a cross hair in the upper left corner. Touch
the cross hair to initiate calibration. Another message, "Touch Upper Right", appears
with a cross hair in the correct corner. Touch the cross hair. A final message, “Touch
Lower Right”, appears with a cross hair in the correct corner. Touch the crosshair to
finish the calibration and return to the MAIN MENU.

NOTE: When touching each crosshair during calibration, be as accurate as possible.
Use the tip of a capped pen or the eraser end of a pencil. To cancel calibration and
return to the CALIBRATION MENU without saving calibration data, create a
calibration error by touching the screen in an area that is opposite from the instructed
area.
Setup Menu
SETUP MENU
SELECT INTERFACE
To obtain the SETUP MENU, shown to the left, press the Setup button from the
MAIN MENU. The SETUP MENU offers a series of buttons, which open additional
menus and screens that are detailed in subsequent paragraphs. After setup parameters
have been set, select the Return button to return to the MAIN MENU.
NOTE: For convenience, the current CRESNET ID setting is displayed in the lower
left corner.
NOTE: All touchpanel settings are automatically saved in non-volatile memory.
Select Interface
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, first select the Interface button on the SETUP MENU to display the
SELECT INTERFACE screen, shown to the left. Then, select the CRESNET button
to display the CRESNET INTERFACE MENU. Use that screen to set the Cresnet
network identity (CRESNET ID).
KEY CLICK SETUP
SCREEN SETTINGS BRIGHTNESS
After the Cresnet ID setting has been verified, touch the Return button at the bottom
of the screen to save the setting and display the SELECT INTERFACE menu.
Key Click Setup
From the SETUP MENU, press the Key Click Enabled button to open KEY CLICK
SETUP screen. (If the function is currently disabled, the button legend is “Ke
Disabled.”) To enable an audible tone (beep) when the touchpanel buttons are
pressed, select among the Short, Med, or Long KEY CLICK ENABLE/LEN
uttons to set the duration of the tone. The touchpanel responds with a corresponding
signal. To disable the feature, select Click Off.
Use the KEY CLICK VOLUME UP and DOWN buttons to increase and decrease
the volume of the signal. The area to the right of the buttons shows the relative
volume from 0% to 100%, both as a numeric value and, for a quick visual reference,
as an analog bar.
Select the Return button to return to the SETUP MENU.
Brightness
From the SETUP MENU, press the Brightness button to open the SCREEN
SETTINGS – BRIGHTNESS screen. The UP and DOWN buttons increase and
decrease screen brightness, respectively. The area to the right of the buttons shows
the relative brightness from 0% to 100%.
Select the Return button to return to the SETUP MENU.
