f Connection status LED — is unlit during normal operation. Blinks red if the connection to the IP Link controller is lost. g Bezel — removable with Extron removal tool (provided). Clips fit into attachment points on the front panel (see figure 4 below) and snap into place. 8 Figure 3. TLP 710MV Top View h Light sensor — is on top of the display frame. The sensor monitors the level of ambient light and adjusts the screen brightness. The sensor can be viewed only from above the panel.
TLP 710MV Rear Panel Features and Connections Extron 13 15 16 14 Figure 5. TLP 710MV Rear Panel Features m Power connector — Connect the 2-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector from the 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply (not provided) to the power supply socket on the rear panel. Ensure the connections have the correct polarity as shown below. NOTES: • Extron recommends using the Power over Ethernet power supply. The 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply should be used only for setup or troubleshooting.
ATTENTION: • Always use a power supply supplied by or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product. • Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities.
Extron recommends using a Power over Ethernet (PoE) power supply. Use a straight‑through Ethernet cable to connect the power supply to a switch or router. This cable carries network information from the switch or router to the power supply input. A second straight-through cable carries the network information and 48 VDC from the power supply to the TLP 710MV. Connect the IEC power cord to a convenient 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source.
TLP 710TV Front Panel Features and Operations d d e a Extron b f c Figure 8. TLP 710TV Front Panel Features a Motion sensor — is capped with a small Fresnel lens that focuses light onto the sensor. When no motion has been detected for a user-defined period of time, the unit enters sleep mode. When motion is detected by the sensor, the screen display is restored and active. b Microphone — is located below the LCD screen.
TLP 710TV Rear Panel Features and Connections The TLP 710TV has a stand that allows it to be placed on desktop. The stand can be removed to VESA mount the unit. Both the stand and the touchpanel have removable covers that conceal the rear panel features and protect cables that are attached to the TLP 710TV. The rear and base covers can be removed using the Extron removal tool (provided) (see page 38). 11 14 15 8 12 9 10 13 Figure 9.
k Power connector — Connect the 2-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector from the 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply (not provided) to the power supply socket on the rear panel. Ensure the connections have the correct polarity as shown in figure 10. NOTES: • Extron recommends using the Power over Ethernet power supply. The 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply should only be used for setup or troubleshooting. • If both power supplies are connected to the TLP 710TV, the PoE power supply takes precedence.
n MTP input — A twisted pair cable, terminated with an RJ‑45 LAN connector, provides video and audio input from an Extron MTP transmitter. The MTP port is in the top surface of the recessed area (see the arrow to the left in figure 9). RJ-45 Port Link LED Activity LED CAUTION: Connect the MTP transmitter to the MTP socket and the network connector to the network socket.
NOTE: The twisted pair cable providing the MTP (Figure 9, n) and network LAN (Figure 9, o) connections should be secured together and to both the back panel and base using zip-ties as shown below. LAN Connection MTP Connection Zip-tie Cable Runway Zip-tie Figure 12.
Initial Calibration This section describes: • Accessing the Internal On-screen Menus • Main Screen • Volume Screen • Time Screen • Network Screen • Video Screen • Touch Calibration Screen Accessing the Internal On-screen Menus When the TouchLink panel first has power applied, the unit boots up and displays the opening screen. To access the on-screen menus, press the Menu button (see page 5 for the TLP 710MV or page 10 for the TLP 710TV). The menus open at the Main screen.
The Sleep timer buttons determine how long the panel will be inactive before it enters Sleep mode, when the screen goes dark to save power. The time can be changed from 0 to 50,000 seconds (in 10‑second increments). The time that is currently selected is shown above the buttons. The screen may need a high level of backlighting for readability when ambient lighting is high. With low ambient lighting, the backlighting should be low.

Configuration Software This section of the user guide provides information about: • The Configuration Software • Installing the Software • Using the TouchLink Panel Web Pages • Updating the Firmware • Using GUI Configurator • Using Global Configurator The Configuration Software Designing a graphical user interface (GUI) for the TouchLink panel takes two steps: 1. Design the layout of the text and graphics using GUI Configurator. 2.
If required, locate the Global Configurator program on the disc or website and install that also. By default, the Installer program creates and places the Global Configurator program in the C:\Program Files\Extron\GCx.x folder, where x.x represents the version of the Global Configurator program. During installation, there is an option to place an icon on the Windows desktop. Both programs can be downloaded from the Extron website (www.extron.com).
2. Click the Configuration tab and then click System Settings in the menu in the left sidebar. This page allows the user to modify the IP settings and the date and time settings. These correspond to the Network Screen (see page 16) and Time Screen (see page 16) settings in the on‑screen menus. Figure 20. System Settings Page 3. Click Passwords in the menu in the left sidebar. This page allows the user to set passwords for an administrator and a user.
4. To upgrade the firmware, select Firmware Upgrade. For more detailed instructions, see Updating Firmware from a Web Browser on page 23. 5. Click the Touchpanel tab to access the Touchpanel Configuration page, which allows the user to alter the touchpanel and volume settings. These correspond to the Main settings (see page 14) and Volume settings (see page 15) in the on-screen menus. Figure 22.

To work from a template, users can choose from a range of factory-loaded templates or from a template they have previously created.
• Download an Existing Project from a Panel — Clicking OK opens a dialog box that allows a file that has already been uploaded to a touchpanel to be downloaded for modification. Figure 30. GUI Configurator Download Project Dialog Box a. In the dialog box that opens, enter the IP address of the panel and use the Browse button to navigate to a folder where the file will be saved. b. Check Open the project and Close Download Manager. c. Click OK.
3. Depending on which option was selected in step 2, GUI Configurator opens a new or existing project. The initial screen is divided into a series of panes offering a range of tools that can be used to design or modify the project.
