Crestron TPMC-8X-DSW Wall Mount Docking Station for TPMC-8X Series
Operation
The TPMC-8X-DSW docks the TPMC-8X Series touch screen, provides power and
communication and recharges the internal battery and up to two (optional) external
battery packs. Operation consists of docking the touch screen (performed by hand)
into the TPMC-8X-DSW or undocking electrically via the touch screen and then
removing by hand.
Docking the Touch Screen
Insert the bottom edge of the touch screen into the TPMC-8X-DSW, making sure to
align the docking station connector on the bottom of the touch screen with the
connector inside the TPMC-8X-DSW.
Make sure the touch screen is squarely seated in the TPMC-8X-DSW, then press the
upper edge of the touch screen inward, toward the wall, until it snaps into position.
NOTE: The touch screen must be fully inserted into the TPMC-8X-DSW with its
compact flash slot cover in place, in order for the power, audio, LAN and USB
connections from the TPMC-8X-DSW to function.
Undocking the Touch Screen
During normal operation, the TPMC-8X-DSW unlatches the touch screen
electrically using hard button #4 on the touch screen (if the default for this button is
engaged) or a reserved join number is engaged or by using the Biometric fingerprint
scanner on the TPMC-8X. (For location of hard button #4, refer to the illustration on
the following page.)
When the touch screen is unlatched, it snaps outward slightly and may then be
removed by hand.
If the TPMC-8X Series touch screen is released from the TPMC-8X-DSW Wall
Mount Docking Station and pressed back into position within the docking station
within less than eight seconds, the touch screen displays a message on the screen
saying it did not release from the docking station. This message indicates the panel
expected to be undocked and it is not. This message can be acknowledged and is of
no concern. To avoid this message in future instances, simply allow eight seconds
after undocking before pressing the panel back into the docking station.
Electrical Undocking of Touch Screen
Using hard button #4 on the TPMC-8X Series touch screen (if the default for this
button is engaged) or a reserved join number or the Biometric fingerprint scanner on
the TPMC-8X, unlatch the touch screen. Then remove the touch screen by gently
pulling the upper edge of the touch screen outward (away from the TPMC-8X-DSW)
and lifting it to disengage the docking station connector.
Manual Undocking of Touch Screen
In the event of a power failure, the touch screen can be undocked manually. This is
accomplished by inserting the supplied hardware key into the opening just above the
center of the touch screen and pressing downward on the key, so the inserted part
lifts the latch securing the top of the touch screen into the TPMC-8X-DSW. (Refer to
the illustration on the following page.) The touch screen snaps outward slightly and
