Before You Start

The TPI-PRO-DVI has been factory setup with specific touch panel pages. The first splash screen that appears indicates the TPI is receiving power, loading firmware, and preparing to display the default touch panel page.

When the panel is ready, the AMX Splash Screen is replaced by the initial Panel Setup page.

• Verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master firmware.
• Verify you are using the latest TPI-PRO-DVI firmware.
• Verify the NetLinx Studio program you are using is version 2.8 or higher.
• Verify the TPDesign4 program you are using is version 2.11 or higher.

Installation/Safety Instructions

• Connect the unit only to a properly-rated supply circuit.
• DO NOT stand other units directly on top of the TPI-PRO-DVI when it is rack mounted, as this will place excessive strain on the mounting brackets.
• ALWAYS ensure that the rack enclosure is adequately ventilated.
  Adequate ventilation is critical for proper operation of the TPI-PRO-DVI.
  The TPI-PRO-DVI uses the bottom cover as a heat sink. In most installations it will be necessary to have some amount of airflow across the bottom cover.
  It is good practice to leave 1 RU of empty space above and below the unit.
  Placing the unit low in the rack, using vented spacer panels and keeping other heat-generating equipment away from the unit can also be beneficial.
  Depending on the rack enclosure and the surrounding air temperature, it may also be necessary to incorporate rack fans to increase air flow across the bottom of the unit.

The TPI-PRO-DVI occupies one rack unit in a standard 19" equipment rack.

The included mounting brackets can be rotated 90^ in any direction to accommodate several different mounting options, including tabletop, under/over the table, and vertical wall mounting.

Cable Details and Pinouts

Refer to the TPI-PRO-DVI Operation/Reference Guide.

Startup Routine and Initial Panel Response

- Discharge any acquired static electricity by touching a grounded metal object.

- Verify the rear connections are secure and active.

1. Connect the 12VDC Power Supply to the PWR connector on the rear panel.
   The TPI will power ON and initialize the startup routine when the power supply is connected.
   Note: Once power is applied, use the Power button to toggle the unit off and on.

2. After the startup routine, the connected touch monitor displays one of two possible screens:

3. If the TPI's output resolution matches that of the touch monitor, continue by setting the touch drivers associated with the touch monitor.
   Refer to the Setting the Touch Drivers (Serial Touch Monitors Only) section of the TPI-PRO-DVI Operation/Reference Guide for details.

- If the TPI's output resolution does not match the resolution of the connected touch monitor, you must set the output resolution of the TPI to match the touch monitor.

Note: An "OUT OF RANGE" message is often generated by the touch monitor. Some monitors will not display a message, but will appear blank instead.

Setting the Output Resolution

The TPI's output resolution must match the output pixel resolution and refresh rate set on the connected touch monitor.

• The default output resolution is 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz.
• The maximum output resolution is 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz.
Note: The TPI-PRO-DVI does not provide Component (YPbPr) or Interlaced outputs.
- Use the RESOLUTION pushbutton to alter the outgoing resolution to match the output pixel resolution and refresh rate set on the connected touch monitor.

1. Press the RESOLUTION pushbutton to open the Resolution Setup page.

2. Press the RESOLUTION button again to cycle through the available output resolution settings.

3. Every consecutive button push cycles the output resolution to the next highest setting.

4. Double-push the RESOLUTION button to return to the previous setting.

5. For a listing of available pixel display and refresh rates, refer to the TPI-PRO-DVI Operation/Reference Guide.

6. The message "Please wait, loading new resolution..." indicates that the new resolution setting is being saved. Do not remove power while the new settings are being saved.

7. Once your resolution is selected, you can use the outer screen area lines on the Resolution Setup page to adjust your monitor's visible screen area.

8. This could involve using the monitor's video control to stretch and move the incoming video so that the borders follow the edges of the screen without disappearing.

9. There are normally 60 seconds before the resolution times-out, but you can press the front panel RESOLUTION button again to return to the previous resolution pattern and continue setting up the monitor.

10. Press and hold the RESOLUTION button to save the resolution setting and exit the Resolution Setup page.

Note: When the new output resolution is applied, there may be some shifting of the default Main page, as it was developed for 1280 × 1024 .

Setting the Touch Drivers (Serial Touch Monitors Only)

After matching the resolution between the TPI and panel/monitor, the next step is to select the necessary touch drivers from the driver set provided by the TPI.

• This step only applies to serial touch monitors, as USB monitors are automatically detected.
• The touch drivers are set when you connect the TPI to a touch monitor.

• The default Touch Input Driver is EloTouch ^® .
  • If you are using a non touch-enabled monitor, select NullTouch.

• Press the TOUCH pushbutton on the front panel to open the Panel Information page.
