TLI Pro 101 • Setup Guide
Overview
The Extron TLI Pro 101 is a TouchLink®Interface that works with any Extron IP Link®Pro control processor, to allow a third party
touchscreen display to be used as a point of control within an Extron Pro Series control system. The scaled output supports
displays from 800x600 to 1920x1200, as well as HDTV 1080p/60. This guide provides instructions for experienced installers to
mount and install a TLIPro 101 and to create a basic conguration. For more complete instructions, see the TLIPro 101 User
Guide, at www.extron.com.

Both software programs are available from www.extron.com.
