TPMC-4SM

Isys i/O® 4.3" Wall Mount Touchpanel Media Center

Stylish, compact, and affordable touchpanel with advanced features and performance. Easy and versatile surface mount or table top installation. Includes out-of-the-box room scheduling for use with Crestron RoomView® Server Edition room management software.

With its clean, contoured appearance, the Isys i/O TPMC-4SM Wall Mount Touchpanel Media Center makes an elegant statement in any environment. Perfectly at home in the most modern office building, hotel, or residence, its high-tech good looks underline its power for simplifying everyday tasks and functions throughout any facility, all in a very affordable device that's versatile and easy to install.

An incredibly thin profile and small footprint allow the TPMC-4SM to be installed in places other touchpanels just can't go, providing the choice of mounting to a standard electrical box or to virtually any flat surface — even glass, granite, or marble. A table top enclosure is also available, affording a very stylish, space-saving solution for placement on a desktop or bedside table. Complete connectivity is provided through a single high-speed Ethernet connection, containing all control, video, intercom, and power signals within a single wire.

The TPMC-4SM packs the latest Crestron digital touchpanel technology, delivering amazing new graphics capabilities, plus streaming video and 2-way IP intercom. Other new features include dual-color backlit buttons, built-in proximity sensor, PoE network power, occupancy sensor inputs, and out-of-the-box room scheduling capability for use with Crestron RoomView® Server Edition room management software.

Widescreen Touchpanel
Fully custom touchpanel versatility is afforded through a brilliant 4.3" widescreen format touchscreen, displaying stunning 16-bit color graphics and video. Dynamic graphics and text capability enable the display of all kinds of useful data and alluring eye candy—from AV controls and icons—to room temperature and lighting levels—to photos and video—to digital media playlists complete with metadata and cover art.

Crestron DNav technology affords enhanced touchpanel functionality in less space, providing dynamic navigation control objects for scrolling effortlessly through large menus. Full-motion animations, multimode objects, PNG translucency, transition effects, and streaming video enhance the palette for creating GUIs that are both eye-catching and easy to use.

Dual-Color Backlit Buttons
The TPMC-4SM comes standard with 10 programmable "hard key" pushbuttons for quick access to commonly used functions. Discrete red and green LEDs behind each translucent button afford enhanced multi-state feedback capability for clear status indication of each button function. The LEDs may also be set to provide dimmable backlighting of the buttons, with independent control over the left and right columns, for a custom appearance and enhanced visibility.

Customized labeling of the covers surrounding the pushbuttons can be attained simply using Crestron Engraver software. Or, for a clean appearance, either column of buttons may be removed and covered using the no-button covers provided.

Room Scheduling Mode
The TPMC-4SM works directly with our RoomView® Server Edition room management software to provide a powerful enterprise-wide room scheduling solution. Installed outside the entrance to every meeting room, the TPMC-4SM provides an immediate view of each room's availability, with the ability to look up the calendar for any room on the network, and even book the room right on-the-spot. The dual-color buttons gives a clear indication of a room's status at-a-glance, lighting green when the room is available and red when it is in use. The touchpanel's contoured shape assures that, even when mounted in a narrow hallway, the buttons remains clearly visible at a distance to either side.

Occupancy Sensing
Crestron GLS-series room occupancy sensors can be connected directly to the TPMC-4SM to allow automation of the room's lighting, climate control, and other devices. In Room Scheduling Mode, the sensors allow RoomView to detect when no one has shown up for a scheduled meeting, so even if the meeting is not cancelled or rescheduled by its host, the calendar can be updated automatically to make the room available to other users.

Proximity Sensor
The TPMC-4SM senses as you approach it, waking its display automatically without having to touch the screen so it's always ready for use.

Streaming Video
An onboard streaming video player makes it possible to monitor a security camera, or preview a DVD or television channel, right on the touchscreen display. Native support for the motion-JPEG streaming format allows the TPMC-4SM to display live video from a variety of Web cameras and servers including the Crestron CEN-NVS100 Network Video Streamer*.

IP Intercom
Built-in IP intercom capability facilitates direct panel-to-panel intercom and monitoring right over the LAN without requiring any additional AV wiring. The TPMC-4SM features an integrated microphone and speaker for clear speech communication.

Audio Feedback
Customized WAV files can be loaded on the TPMC-4SM to add dimension to its touchscreen graphics using personalized sounds, button feedback, and voice prompts.

Single-Wire Connectivity
A simple Ethernet LAN connection is all that is required to wire the TPMC-4SM, enabling seamless communication with Crestron control systems, computers, video servers, and other touchpanels.

Power over Ethernet
The TPMC-4SM gets its power right through the LAN wiring using 802.3af PoE technology. PoE (Power over Ethernet) eliminates the need for a local power supply or any dedicated power wiring. A PoE Injector (PWE-4803RU*) simply connects inline with the LAN cable, allowing for installation at any convenient location. For applications with multiple TPMC-4SMs or other PoE-powered devices, a Crestron 5-port PoE switch (CEN-SW-POE-5*) may be used, allowing up to 4 devices to be powered from a single location.

Simple, Versatile Mounting
The TPMC-4SM installs easily on virtually any mounting surface. As standard, it mounts directly to a single-gang electrical box (horizontally oriented) or European electrical box, requiring just 1/2-inch mounting depth while protruding less than 3/4-inch from the wall surface. For impenetrable surfaces, such as decorative glass, granite, marble, plaster, smooth stone and masonry, Crestron offers the MSMK-4SM Multi-Surface Mount Kit*, providing a very versatile mounting solution complete with a low-profile rear shell enclosure, adhesive mounting plate, optional angle bracket, and wire raceway. The TTK-4SM Table Top Kit* converts the TPMC-4SM into a stylish, compact tabletop touchpanel, perfect for free-standing use or permanently-mounted on a tabletop or counter surface.
