Isys i/O™ 8.4” TableTop WiFi Touchpanel

Operation

Power Modes

The TPMC-8T has three power modes: On, Standby and Off. Refer to the following
table for details.

TPMC-8T Power Modes

POWER MODE

DETAILS

On

Normal operating mode. Initiated with
power button on left side of touchpanel.

Standby

Backlight is turned off to conserve power
but WiFi and processor are still on and
thumbpad and hard keys are still functional.
Initiated with Standby function from the
setup menu.* Touch the screen to
reactivate the TPMC-8T from standby
mode.

Off

All power is off. Can be initiated by pressing
the power button on the left side of the
touchpanel and holding it for four seconds.
However, the recommended method for
shutting down the touchpanel is to press
the Shut Down button on the setup menu.*

* Standby and power off modes can also be initiated using reserve join numbers in VT Pro-e and the

Device Extender function in SIMPL Windows. For details, refer to the respective help files in these
programs.

NOTE: Power Down, as seen on the startup menu, is not applicable to the
TPMC-8T and is not used.

Security Infrastructure

Since the TPMC-8T does not use a traditional hard drive but rather an image that
gets restored every time the touchpanel is rebooted, any virus infection is cleared
immediately after a reboot. However, using the currently available tools and
techniques, Crestron has provided an infrastructure that protects against possible
virus infections.

1. Executables/Scripts brought in on external media

The implementation of the TPMC-8T has restrictions on starting any application
or script. The only applications that can be started are those allowed by Crestron
and these can only be started from the Crestron project.

2. Downloaded

Program/Script

The browser is customized in such a way that files cannot be downloaded. The
only files the browser can open are the files it has plug-ins for, such as PDF, etc.
The user cannot change the options, as this dialog box has been disabled.

3. Browser Hijack and Browser vulnerability

Crestron has patched all currently known hijacks and vulnerabilities. Future
updates can be downloaded from the Crestron website.
