Enhanced Touchpanel Control

In every sense, the TPMC-15-CH-L is a true Crestron touchpanel, offering vibrant 24-bit color depth with 8-bit alpha channel transparency to produce incredible 3D graphics using DNav dynamic menu objects, dynamic graphics and text, full-motion animations, multimode objects, PNG translucency, and exclusive Synapse™ image rendering - all with astonishing speed. But more than a touchpanel, the TPMC-15-CH-L is also a dynamic resource for managing routine online tasks and enjoying streaming music and video, and a high-resolution video monitor with performance rivaling the best LCD flat-panel displays available.

Embedded PC

The power of Isys i/O is in its embedded PC engine, combining rock solid touchpanel performance with enhanced capabilities for surfing the Internet, streaming digital media, and viewing online documents. Running the Microsoft® Windows® XP Embedded operating system, Isys i/O delivers a powerful and secure platform for touchpanel control with integrated PC functionality. Programmatic control erases the lines between control system and PC, allowing programmers to customize each application's behavior within the touchpanel environment to create a truly powerful and user-friendly interface.

With built-in Windows Media® Player, RealPlayer®, and Internet Explorer, plus viewers for Word, Excel, PowerPoint®, and Adobe® Acrobat®, the TPMC-15-CH-L provides everything needed for viewing Web pages, enjoying online music and movies, and downloading documents without necessitating a separate computer. You can also access data and run applications on other computers over the network or Internet via Remote Desktop, or use new VNC Viewer support for enhanced cross-platform interaction with remote computers, allowing full control of desktop applications with live presentation capability. Onboard NetMeeting® and Skype™ VoIP applications enable duplex telephone and interactive conferencing right on the touchpanel.

Dual-Window HD Video*

In addition to its internal PC and streaming video applications, the TPMC-15-CH-L can also simultaneously display two fully-scalable, full-motion video windows. Each window supports standard video and HDTV formats from external sources. Discrete video scalers with motion adaptive deinterlacing bring out the highest detail, minimizing visible scan lines and motion artifacts for an incredible picture. Advanced gamma correction and built-in time base correction ensure accurate color reproduction and a jitter-free image.

High-Quality Audio

An integrated microphone, biamplified speakers, stereo headphone output, and PC audio output are all built into the touchpanel to support full AV, intercom, desktop conferencing, and multimedia computer capabilities. Customized WAV files can be loaded on the touchpanel to add dimension to the touchscreen graphics with personalized sounds, button feedback, and voice prompts.

Crestron Home® CAT5 AV

All audio and video connections are facilitated using inexpensive CAT5 wire, enabling direct connection to Crestron's popular CAT5 balanced audio and video distribution switchers. Two video input ports are provided, each supporting composite, S-Video, and HDTV/component formats over wiring distances of up to 500 feet. A bidirectional audio port receives stereo program audio and intercom signals, and outputs audio from the internal microphone and PC for intercom and whole-house audio distribution. To facilitate the connection of conventional video and audio devices, an external interface module is included.

Connectivity and Expansion

Both Cresnet and high-speed Ethernet are standard on the TPMC-15-CH-L, providing for seamless communications with Crestron control systems, computers, digital media servers, and other IP-based devices. Wi-Fi wireless networking and memory expansion are easily added through two PC card slots, and two USB ports enable the connection of an external mouse and keyboard (not included), as well as CD ROM drives and memory devices.�
