), or a

Web Browsing

Using its built-in Web browser, the TST-902 provides quick access to
online program guides and other Web-based services at the touch of a
button, allowing enhanced touch screen control of DVRs and other
appliances without having to pick up a separate tablet or smartphone. If
a device can be controlled or managed through a Web browser, it can be

Web browser may also be used to simply browse the Internet, watch online
videos, and check up on social media.

Multi-Touch Support

The TST-902’s capacitive touch screen affords enhanced capabilities for
browsing Web pages using multi-touch gestures.

On-Screen Keyboard

An on-screen multi-language keyboard allows for quick entry of passwords,
URLs, and text searches.

Audio Feedback

Customized audio files can be loaded on the TST-902 to add another
dimension to the touch screen graphics using personalized sounds, button
feedback, and voice prompts.

Dual-Mode Wireless

To deliver the ultimate in wireless touch screen performance and
functionality, the TST-902 employs a combination of Crestron Extended
Range 2.4 GHz RF (ER) and Wi-Fi® wireless technologies.

• Extended Range RF (Required) — Primary functionality is supported
via Crestron ER (Extended Range) wireless communications, providing

seamless touch screen control with true feedback. A single ER gateway

[4]

enables ultra dependable wireless performance at a range of up to
200 feet (60 m) indoors.

[5]

Roaming capability allows for even greater

coverage using up to eight ER gateways.

• Wi-Fi (Optional) — While the TST-902 can be operated using only
ER wireless, advanced wireless capabilities such as streaming video,
voice recognition, Web browsing, and dynamic graphics can only be
supported using both ER and Wi-Fi together (dual-mode). Crestron
enhanced Wi-Fi wireless performance achieves a remarkable 50 feet
(15 m) omnidirectional coverage indoors.

[5]

For Wi-Fi networks with
multiple access points, the TST-902 supports the ability to hand off
communication from one access point to another if the active
connection is lost.

[6]

The choice of 802.11 b, g, and n protocols
affords reliable, high-speed wireless performance in virtually any RF
environment. For optimal Wi-Fi performance, Crestron offers the

CEN-WAP-1500 High Power Dual-Band Wireless Access Point

[4]

.

IMPORTANT: EVERY INSTALLATION OF THE TST-902 REQUIRES A
CRESTRON ER WIRELESS GATEWAY TO ENABLE ESSENTIAL WIRELESS
CAPABILITY. THE TST-902 WILL NOT WORK WITH WI-FI ALONE.

Instant-Waking

®

[7]

To ensure the most transparent user experience possible, the TST-902
has been engineered to wake instantly upon touching the touch screen.
Commands are sent immediately — just like an IR remote but with none
of IR’s limitations. So spontaneous actions like muting the audio, pausing
the video, or changing the channel can be executed on-the-fly without
any waiting.

Extended Battery Life

The TST-902 features a large-capacity, user-replaceable Li-Ion battery
pack to enable up to 9 hours of continuous operation and several days of
typical use between charges. Intelligent power management and Lithium
Ion battery technology afford a perfect balance of long battery life, light
weight, and compact size.

Table Dock Charger

The TST-902 includes a stylish table dock for charging its internal battery
while simultaneously allowing it to be used as a stationary tabletop touch
screen. The table dock holds the TST-902 firmly at a fixed upright angle
while docked, and allows it to be simply lifted off at any time for portable
use. Its sleek appearance achieves a look befitting the most contemporary
boardroom or luxury living room.

[1]

Wall Dock Option

Available separately, the TST-902-DSW provides a flush mount, in-wall
docking solution, allowing the TST-902 to be used as a stationary wall
mount touch screen with the ability to go wireless at any time.
