Docking Stations for the TPS-6X Series: TPS-6X-DS-C & TPS-6XNL-DS-C

Introduction

The TPS-6X-DS-C is a desktop docking station designed for charging the Isys™ TPS-6X Series Wireless Touchpanels. While charging, the touchpanel may continue to be operated as a wireless desktop tilt touchpanel.

The TPS-6X-DS-C and TPS-6XNL-DS-C are functionally identical, except the NL model does not have the locking mechanism. For simplicity within this guide, the term “TPS-6X-DS-C” is used except where noted.

The TPS-6X-DS-C is available in six different models.

Features and Functions

• A stylish desktop dock for the Isys TPS-6X Series
- Provides a simple battery charging solution
- Allows wireless tilt touchpanel operation while charging

Low Profile Base

Its sleek appearance belies a surefooted design offering excellent stability on any flat surface. A single connector is provided at the rear of the base for connection of the wall mount power pack (included). A swivel mount kit is also available for fixed mount applications that require the ability to rotate the docking station during use.

Tilt Docking Port

The tiltable docking port on the TPS-6X-DS-C allows the touchpanel to be tilted at any angle up to 45 degrees for optimal viewing and operation. The angle can be freely adjusted during use or locked down at a fixed angle. Strong magnets help guide the touchpanel onto the docking port and hold it in place.

Locking Option

The TPS-6X-DS-C is available with or without additional locking features. Standard models include a finger-operated latch, which can be engaged at any time to secure the touchpanel to the docking station while it is docked. The touchpanel can even be attached to the docking station semi-permanently using a provided locking pin for a full-time tabletop touchpanel solution. These locking features are omitted on the No Lock model docking stations.

Recommended Cleaning

The TPS-6X-DS-C comes in a soft microfiber bag to protect it during shipping. This can be used to clean the docking station.

Operation

Mounting the Touchpanel

To mount the TPS-6X Series, the touchpanel must first be positioned onto the docking station at a slight angle to latch the top portion of the docking station onto the touchpanel. Magnets on the TPS-6X-DS-C attach to metal plates installed on the TPS-6X to secure the touchpanel in place (refer to the illustration below).

Touchpanel Mounting

Image in circle above, shows TPS-6XNL-DS-C, with no locking mechanism.

Tilt Adjustment

The TPS-6X-DS-C head can be tilted 45 degrees from vertical. The amount of resistance on the tilt mechanism can be changed or locked to a desired tilt angle by adjusting the tilt clutch using a 7/64" hex wrench (refer to the illustration below).

Touchpanel Tilt Clutch Adjustment

NOTE: Illustration above shows locking model. Tilt clutch is the same on No Lock models.

Operating Modes

NOTE: This section applies to the locking models only.

The TPS-6X-DS-C can be configured into a lock mode or unlock mode to either secure or release the TPS-6X Series touchpanel. The touchpanel can also be configured to permanently lock the touchpanel onto the TPS-6X-DS-C using a locking pin accessory.

Remove Wedge

To prevent accidental locking, the TPS-6X-DS-C ships with a wedge insert in front of the latching mechanism. To enable locking, remove the wedge insert.

Unlock Mode

Push upward on the latch as shown in the illustration below.

When in unlock mode, the touchpanel can be docked or undocked from the TPS-6X-DS-C.

TPS-6X-DS-C Unlock Mode

NOTE: Lock and unlock modes are mechanical states only. The docked touchpanel will operate in either mode.

Permanent Lock Mode

Ensure the touchpanel is securely placed on the docking station and placed in lock mode. Then slide the locking pin accessory straight through the slot on the docking station until the locking pin clicks into place (refer to the illustrations below).

The locking pin can be installed from the left or right side of the docking station with the snap of the pin facing in or out of the slot.

When in permanent lock mode, the touchpanel is permanently secured onto the docking station. While the locking pin is removable, it is recommended that the user only use the locking pin when necessary. Refer to the CAUTION below.

TPS-6X-DS-C Permanent Lock Mode

CAUTION: Use caution if this locking pin must be removed. Using excess force while removing the locking pin once it has been installed can damage the docking station and render the locking mechanism unusable.
