Crestron TPS-VIDL Video Card for TPS/Lectern Panel
Video Card for TPS/Lectern Panel: TPS-VIDL
Description
Functional Description
The TPS-VIDL video card is an optional feature designed for Crestron’s wall/ lectern
mounted TPS-5000L and TPS-6000L touchpanels and the TPS-TPI touchpanel interface. The
card is a video digitizer that allows television (TV) National Television System Committee
(NTSC) or Phase Alternating Line (PAL) video to be displayed on the touchpanel. Composite
or S-Video formats are supported and the TV video can be displayed in a window or full
screen.
NOTE: A video window object must reside on a page within the uploaded VT Pro-e
touchpanel project and the TPS-VIDL must be installed into the proper expansion slot of the
TPS-5000L, TPS-6000L, or TPS-TPI in order for the TV video to be displayed. For details
regarding video window objects, refer to the VT Pro-e help file.
Physical Description
The TPS-VIDL card, shown below and on the next page, is a printed circuit board (PCB)
designed to be installed into a specific expansion slot in the touchpanel (or interface). The
card contains a 60-pin connector that attaches directly to the motherboard. TV video access is
through two BNC connectors and a 6-pin port that are permanently attached to the TPS-VIDL
card. The connectors and port (individually labeled in the NTSC/PAL INPUT section of the
touchpanel) are accessible through the connector panel at the rear of the case. The card is
secured to the motherboard with four attached knurled mounting screws.

Installation and Hookup
The TPS-VIDL is designed to be installed into a specific expansion slot in the TPS-5000L
and TPS-6000L touchpanel and the TPS-TPI touchpanel interface. The tools required for
installation are a grounding strap (or grounded workstation), #1 Phillips screwdriver, #1
Phillips 1/4-inch hex bit and an inch-pound torque driver.
CAUTION: The TPS-VIDL and the touchpanel contain electrostatic sensitive devices
(ESDs); observe precautions for handling ESDs to avoid damaging the card and/or the
touchpanel.
NOTE: The diagrams in this procedure show a TPS-6000L touchpanel but the steps for the
TPS-5000L and TPS-TPI are identical. This procedure pertains to a touchpanel or interface
that is NOT installed into a wall or lectern. If already installed, refer to the latest revision of
the TPS-5000L, TPS-6000L, or TPS-TPI Operations & Installation Guide (Doc. 5825, 5783,
or 5855, respectively) or, if applicable, BB-5000 or BB-6000 Installation Guide (Doc. 5826
or 5827). Disconnect power and perform the installation procedure in reverse to remove the
touchpanel or interface. The latest software version of the Operations & Installation Guide
can be obtained from the Downloads page (MANUAL Library) of Crestron’s website
(www.crestron.com). New users are required to register in order to obtain access to the FTP
site.
1. To prevent scratching of the screen (TPS-TPI excluded), place the touchpanel
face-down onto a padded surface.
