TLP 350MV • Setup Guide

Overview

The Extron® TLP 350MV is a wall-mounted TouchLink™ Panel that
provides simple and versatile configuration and control for a range
of IP Link® control systems.

Graphic and text objects are displayed on the screen. These objects
have system control functions associated with them and the
Touchpanel allows you to control those functions.

Two BNC connectors allow the screen to be used to preview composite video or S-video.

NOTE: The RJ-45 output on the rear panel of the TLP 350MV must be connected to a network switch, hub, or router that

is connected to an Ethernet LAN or the Internet. An Extron IP Link controller must also be connected to the same
network. Suggested models include IPL T S series (for example, IPL T S4), IPL 250, IPL T CR48, or IPL T SFI244 .

This guide provides basic instructions for experienced installers to mount and perform initial configuration on the
TLP 350MV. Full instructions and reference material can be found in the TLP 350MV User Guide, which is available on the
Extron Web site (www.extron.com).

Mounting the TLP 350MV

Decide where to mount the TLP 350MV and whether to use a 3-gang mud ring or a 3-gang UL-certified junction box. The
mounting instructions are slightly different depending on your choice:

Using a Mud Ring

1. Use the template provided with the mud ring to mark

the wall. For the mud ring provided, the hole must be
5 25/32 inches (14.68 cm) wide x 3 7/8 inches (9.83 cm) high.

Locking Arms (4)

2. Cut a hole in the wall. To avoid making the hole too big, cut

inside the lines you marked.

3. Test the fit by inserting the mud ring into the hole in the wall.

If necessary, use a rasp or file to enlarge the hole.

4. Insert the mud ring into the hole and use a screw driver to

turn and tighten the locking arms until they clamp the mud
ring to the mounting surface. Do not overtighten.

5. Secure the wall adapter (provided) to the junction box, using

the four screws (provided).

6. Use the Extron removal tool provided to separate the bezel

from the TLP 350MV (see figure on previous page).

7. Extron recommends using the provided Power over Ethernet (PoE) power

supply. Connect a network switch to the "LAN In" port and run a second cable
from the "Pwr LAN Out" port to the Touch Panel mounting site (see the figure below).

Bezel

CAUTION: Whether you use a PoE power supply or a 12 VDC power supply (not provided), you must read the

caution in the Power Supply section of the TLP 350MV User Guide.

NOTE: If both a PoE power supply and a 12 VDC power supply are present, the unit will draw power from the PoE

power supply only.

the cables through the mud ring. Connect the cables as shown in the diagram below.

9. Plug the cables into the rear panel connectors of the TLP 350MV (refer the TLP 350MV User Guide).

10. Secure the TLP 350MV to the mud ring using the two screws provided (top center and bottom center).

unit.
