1. Pre-construction refers to framed walls prior to hanging drywall.
2. Post-construction refers to framed walls with drywall hung.
3. Since the TPS-6X-DSW contains moving parts, mounting to a stud offers more support and is
therefore highly recommended. Although Crestron offers the post-construction WMKM-6X-DSW and
WMKT-6X-DSW mounting options, a mounting option that is secured to a stud, such as the
BB-6X-DSW or PMK-6X-DSW is highly recommended.
NOTE: There is also an international Back Box Kit (BBI-6X-DSW) available for
the TPS-6X-DSW, for installation in concrete and masonry. Refer to the latest
version of the BBI-6X-DSW Installation Guide (Doc. 6842).
If the BB-6X-DSW or PMK-6X-DSW is to be used and a TPS-6X-DSW Docking
Station 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
mounting kit.
Installation
To install the TPS-6X-DSW, complete the following procedure in the order
provided. The only tool required is a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
CAUTION: Allow an air gap of at least 12 inches (30.48 cm) in the wall cavity
above and below the touchpanel for heat dissipation.
NOTE: The following steps are performed only after the BB-6X-DSW or
PMK-6X-DSW has been installed. It is assumed the BB-6X-DSW or PMK-6X-DSW
has been secured to the stud according to the instruction in the latest Installation
Guides (Doc. 6728 and Doc. 6778 respectively), which can be obtained from the
Crestron website. It is also assumed that drywall is in place and a cutout for the
TPS-6X-DSW and touchpanel is made in the drywall.
1. The TPS-6X-DSW is shipped with the docking mechanism locked in its
“back” position. In order to make cable connections, the mechanism must
first be unlocked so it slides to the “forward” position. To do this, slide the
release latch on the right side of the TPS-6X-DSW upward to release the

Operation
Docking the Touchpanel
To mount the TPS-6X, perform the following procedure in the order provided.
1. Press the OPEN button located on the front of the TPS-6X-DSW, to the
right of the docking fixture. The mechanism will slide forward.
2. Position the touchpanel onto the TPS-6X-DSW at a slight angle to latch the
top portion of the touchpanel to the tab on the top of the docking fixture.
When the top portion is latched, move the bottom of the touchpanel into
position, flat against the docking fixture. Magnets on the docking fixture
will contact the metal plates installed on the TPS-6X to secure the
touchpanel in place.
3. Push the touchpanel backward, being careful not to touch the display
screen, until the TPS-6X-DSW mechanism locks into place and the
touchpanel is flush with the TPS-6X-DSW bezel. When the mechanism
locks into place, the tab on the bottom of the docking fixture will slide into
the recess on the rear of the touchpanel, securing it in place.
Undocking the Touchpanel
In normal operation, the TPS-6X-DSW unlatches the touchpanel electrically via the
control system program. The control system program defines the method
(i.e. touchpanel button) for unlatching. When the touchpanel is unlatched, the
docking mechanism will slide forward and the tab on the bottom of the docking
fixture will slide clear of the recess on the rear of the touchpanel. The touchpanel
may then be removed from the TPS-6X-DSW by first pulling the bottom of the
touchpanel slightly forward, then lifting the touchpanel upward, off the tab on the top
of the docking mechanism.
Electrical Undocking of Touchpanel
1. Use the touchpanel or control system program to unlatch the touchpanel.
2. Pull the bottom of the touchpanel slightly forward, then lift the touchpanel
upward, off the tab on the top of the docking mechanism.
Manual Undocking of Touchpanel
In the event of a power failure or if for some other reason, you cannot release the
touchpanel from the TPS-6X-DSW, you can use the supplied emergency latch
release tool to release the touchpanel with the following procedure:
1. While standing directly in front of the TPS-6X-DSW, insert the emergency
latch release tool into the space between the right side of the touchpanel and
the TPS-6X-DSW bezel, about 1” (25 mm) up from the bottom right corner.
