Crestron TPMC-8T Isys i/O™ 8.4” TableTop WiFi Touchpanel
Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the Ethernet network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system (
www.crestron.com/calculators ).
Unlike other Crestron network devices, the TPMC-8T does not use Cresnet

for
communications between the device and the control system. The TPMC-8T requires
the use of a high-speed Ethernet connection for control system communications.
For information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the
latest version of the Crestron e-Control

Reference Guide (Doc. 6052), which is
available from the Crestron website ( www.crestron.com/manuals ).
Identity Code
The IP ID is set within the TPMC-8T’s table using Crestron Toolbox™. For
information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file. The IP IDs
of multiple TPMC-8T devices in the same system must be unique.
When setting the IP ID, consider the following:
• The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the SIMPL™
Windows ® program.
• Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a
unique IP ID.
Configuring the Touchpanel
NOTE: The only connection required to configure the touchpanel is power.
The TPMC-8T is configured from the setup menu.
NOTE: If no project has been loaded or if an invalid project has been loaded, the
touchpanel displays an error message and defaults to the setup menu screen.
If a project is running, the setup menu can be accessed using one of three methods.
Via the Hard Keys Press the four hard keys at the bottom of the touchpanel in sequence, from left to
right and again from left to right (i.e. press 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4) within a 10 second
period.
