Computer Requirements & Software Installation

Conﬁguration of the TSC-3 requires a Q-Sys Core and a PC running Q-Sys Designer software, both connected to the Q-LAN network. The latest

version of Q-Sys Designer may be downloaded from the QSC website (http://www.qscaudio.com/). Additionally, all Q-Sys Core Processors include a

Q-Sys Designer CD-ROM. For more information regarding system requirements and installation instructions, refer to the Q-Sys Designer installation

instructions on the QSC website or in the Core's Q-Sys Hardware User Manual (TD-000282-00 ).

Connections

The TSC-3 comes with a factory-set IP Address and Subnet Mask. You must change

these settings to the same range as that of your Core. To change these settings,

you must have a PC running Q-Sys Designer and connected to the Q-LAN network

to which the TSC-3 is connected.

1. Connect the TSC-3 to the Q-LAN network with at a minimum 10/100 Mbps

PoE enabled Ethernet network, and a CAT-5 rating or better cable with an

RJ45 plug.

2. After the TSC-3 ﬁnishes booting, and the "Ofﬂine" message displays, tap

anywhere on the screen to display the Status Page. The factory-set Name and

IP Address is shown on this page. (Figure 10)

NOTE: In addition to tapping the screen, you can click the ID

button for the TSC-3 in either Q-Sys Conﬁgurator or on the Status

component in Q-Sys Designer.

3. Access the Windows Control panel, Network connections on the PC, and right-click the Local Area Connection with the connection to Q-LAN and

select Properties.

4. Select the TCP/IP connection, and click the Properties button. Note the IP Address and Subnet mask, so you can change this information back to

the original settings at the end of this procedure.

5. Change the IP Address and Subnet Mask to a setting in the same range as the TSC-3.

6. Click OK, then Close.

7. In Q-Sys Designer, on the main menu, click Tools > Show Q-Sys Conﬁgurator... Q-Sys Conﬁgurator displays.

8. Select the TSC-3 in the list under Touchscreen Controllers. The Network Conﬁguration screen displays.

9. On this screen, change the Mode to Auto or Static as required, the IP Address and Subnet Mask to settings in the same range as noted from your

local connection properties. In addition, you can change the Name as desired.

10. Click the Update Settings button.

11. Reset the Windows Local Area connection to the settings noted in step 4 above.

12. The Q-Sys design running on your Core must be conﬁgured to incorporate this TSC-3 into the system. Refer to the Q-Sys Designer online help for

details about setting up the TSC-3. When the design is ready and running on the Core, Q-Sys will push the ﬁrmware (if necessary) and UCI design

to the TSC-3.

Your TSC-3 is now ready to use. The PC is no longer needed for the operation of your Q-Sys system.
