Introduction
iPanel™ In
®
-PAD2-DSWC
The Crestron®iPanel™ In-Wall Docking Stations (IDOC-PAD-DSWC and
IDOC-PAD2-DSWC) provide truly elegant wall mount solutions for charging an
Apple®iPad®1 while simultaneously using it to control a home, office, or classroom.
The iPad slides easily into the iPanel, instantly transforming it into a stationary wall
mount Crestron touch screen. With a gentle press, the iPad can be removed just as
easily for portable use.
The IDOC-PAD-DSWC and IDOC-PAD2-DSWC are installed in the same manner
and feature similar operation. For simplicity within this guide, the term “iPanel” is
used except where noted. Similarly, “iPad” is used to denote iPad, iPad 2, and the
new iPad (3rd generation)1.
Features and Functions
1. The iPad is not included. For the original iPad, use model IDOC-PAD-DSWC. For the iPad 2 or iPad
(3rd generation), use model IDOC-PAD2-DSWC. To convert the IDOC-PAD-DSWC to an
IDOC-PAD2-DSWC, use the IDOC-PAD-DSW_CONVERSION_KIT (sold separately). For
instructions on installing the conversion kit, refer to the latest version of the IDOC-PAD-
DSW_CONVERSION_KIT Installation Guide (Doc. 7215) which is available from the Crestron Web
site (www.crestron.com/manuals).
2. Other than power, the iPanel does not provide Cresnet network connectivity or communications.

As part of a complete Crestron control solution, an iPad offers a very practical and
powerful touch screen controller for home theater, whole-house automation, and
commercial AV applications. The Crestron Mobile Pro®G Control App (sold
separately) enables the iPad to work with a Crestron control system, offering
professional touch screen functionality through a very stylish and highly
customizable graphical interface.
Adding the iPanel affords the advantage of in-wall touch screen operation and
battery charging with no messy wires. Its sleek, innovative design achieves a
completely flush installation with a thoroughly modern appearance. It can be
mounted in a vertical drywall surface using the mounting clips provided. A
pre-construction mounting kit (PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW, sold separately) is also
available.
The iPanel comes in a choice of white or black, with multiple configurations
available to accommodate the original iPad, the iPad 2, or the new iPad
(3rd generation).*
* For the original iPad, use model IDOC-PAD-DSWC. For the iPad 2 or iPad (3rd generation), use
model IDOC-PAD2-DSWC. To convert the IDOC-PAD-DSWC to an IDOC-PAD2-DSWC, use the
IDOC-PAD-DSW_CONVERSION_KIT (sold separately). For instructions on installing the
conversion kit, refer to the latest version of the IDOC-PAD-DSW_CONVERSION_KIT Installation
Guide (Doc. 7215).

Setup
Wiring
When wiring the device, consider the following:
Use Crestron Certified Wire.
Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate how
much power is needed for the system (www.crestron.com/calculators).
For more details, refer to “Check Wiring” on page 13.
Mounting Options
The iPanel installs simply and cleanly into existing or newly constructed walls, with
a choice of a pre-construction or post-construction mounting options. The iPanel is
supplied with four screws and clips for post-construction installation. For a
pre-construction installation, use the PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW Pre-Construction Wall
Mount Kit (sold separately).
all.NOTE: Pre-construction refers to framed walls prior to hanging dryw
Post-construction refers to framed walls with drywall already hung.
NOTE: The PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW Pre-Construction Wall Kit can be used in
right-hand installations only.
If the PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW is to be used and an iPanel is not available, the
installer can either leave the hole in the mounting surface open (if permitted by local
building codes) or attach the cover plate supplied with the PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW.
Installation
Physical installation of the iPanel without a mounting option includes mounting the
unit to the wall and installing the included faceplate. The only tools required for the
procedures presented here are masking tape (or equivalent), a level, a gypsum board
saw (or equivalent), and a #2 Phillips tip screwdriver. The following procedures are
based on the use of the supplied screws and clips for post-construction installation.
The iPanel can be installed for right-handed use (right-hand installation) or
left-handed use (left-hand installation). The included faceplate is for right-hand
installations only. For left-hand installation, the IDOC-PAD-DSWC-FPLT (sold
separately) must be used.
NOTE: If using the PMK-IDOC-PAD-DSW, the iPanel can only be installed for
right-hand operation.
Prepare the Installation Area
The iPanel is designed to be mounted in a wall or lectern. Two overlay cutout
templates (4513896) are supplied. One is in the shape of the required opening; the
