Setup Guide — TLP 700TV
Overview
The Extron® TLP 700TV is a free-standing TouchLink™ Panel (TLP) that
provides simple and versatile configuration and control for a range of
control systems. The panel can be wall-mounted using the optional
Extron VM 700T mounting plate (part #70‑692‑01) and a third-party VESA
D 75 mm mount kit.
Graphic and text objects are displayed on the screen. Functions
associated with those objects are initiated by touching the screen.
The TLP 700TV communicates with the units that it controls through an Ethernet connection to an IP Link box. An MTP
twisted pair cable allows the screen to be used to preview composite and S-video.
NOTE: The RJ-45 output on the rear panel of the TLP 700TV must be connected to a network switch, hub, or router
that is connected to an Ethernet LAN or the Internet. An Extron IP Link controller must also be connected
to the same network domain. Suggested models include:
• IPL T S series (for example IPL T S4)
• IPL 250
• IPL T CR 48
• IPL T SFI 244
This guide provides instructions for experienced installers to mount and perform initial configuration on the TLP 700TV.
More detailed information can be found in the TLP 700 Series Reference Manual, which is available at www.extron.com.
TLP 700TV Front Panel Features
a Buttons — These ten backlit
push-buttons (five on either side
of the screen) can be configured,
with the Extron Global Configurator
software, to control common
user-defined functions.
b Motion sensor — This sensor is
capped with a small Fresnel lens that
focuses light onto the sensor. When
no motion has been detected for a
user-defined period of time, the unit
goes into sleep mode. When motion
is detected in the vicinity of the
panel, the screen display is restored
and all buttons are active.
c Encoder knob — This knob is
intended for volume control but
it can be configured for other
functions.
d Light sensor — the sensor monitors the
level of ambient light and adjusts the screen
brightness and button backlighting.
e LCD screen — The 800 x 480 resolution LCD screen has a touch overlay. A graphic user interface is designed using the
Extron GUI Configurator software to display buttons, images or text on the screen. These can be configured for a range
of user-defined functions, using the Extron Global Configurator software.
f Speaker — A single 2 W speaker provides audible feedback for the user.
g Reset button — This button is recessed behind the faceplate. It allows the unit to be reset in any of four different
modes.
h Menu button — This button is recessed behind the faceplate. It activates the on-screen menus for setting up the panel
and calibrating the unit.
i Reset LED — The LED is recessed behind the faceplate. It lights as an indicator for the Reset modes.

Base Features
Three adjustable potentiometers in the base that are used
to control sharpness, and gain for both S-video luminance
(Y), and S-video chrominance (C). If a composite video
signal is being used, the gain is controlled by the center
potentiometer (Vid/Y).
To adjust these settings:
1. Apply power to the unit.
2. Provide a video input through the MTP RJ-45 connection.
3. Enter the Setup Menu (see the next page).
4. Navigate to the Video screen and calibrate the video
settings.
Installing the TLP 700TV
The TLP 700TV comes assembled with a stand that allows it to
be placed on any suitable flat surface. If required, secure the
unit to the top of the desk by drilling two holes through the
desk 5.1 inches (13 cm) apart. Insert two 8-32 screws through
the bottom of the desk into the two holes in the base.
NOTES: If you are using the MTP video input, this must
be calibrated before you secure the unit to the
flat surface (see Base Features, above).
If you are using the MTP video input, this must
be calibrated before you secure the unit to the
flat surface (see Base Features, above).
1. For correct operation, connect the power supply provided
to the 2-pole captive screw connector (see l in figure 4).
WARNING: For important information about placing
the power supply, see the Caution in the
Power Connector section of the Reference
Manual.
CAUTION: Extron strongly recommends securing the
power supply cables to the base of the unit
with a zip tie.
2. Form a loop from the power supply cable that fits into
the gap between the tail to the captive screw connector
and the raised hook in the base of the unit (see figure 5).
3. Secure the power cable loop to the base of the unit with
a zip tie (n).
4. Insert the network cable into the RJ-45 socket (k) closest
to the green and yellow LEDs (j). See figure 4.
5. If required, insert the twisted pair connection for the
Extron MTP Transmitter into the MTP RJ-45 socket (m).
See figure 4.
NOTES: The minimum distance from the MTP
transmitter to the TLP is 50 feet.
Extron recommends securing all cables with a
zip tie (see o in figure 6).

VESA Mounting (optional)
The stand for the TLP 700TV can be removed and replaced with the Extron
VM 700T kit (part #70‑692‑01). This bracket (see figure 7) fits into any third-party
VESA Type D 75 mm wall mount system. For more information, see the instructions
that come with the VM 700T kit.
Configuring the TLP 700TV (Initial Setup)
Before using the TLP 700TV, configure it, using the on screen menus. Five different screens (Main, Volume, Time, Network,
and Video) can be selected by pressing the appropriate button at the left side of the screen. An Exit button in the bottom
left corner closes the menus.
Setup Menu
1. Use a paper clip to press the recessed menu button (h), as shown in figure 1.
This opens the setup menu at the Main Setup Page (see figure 8).
2. Touch an area of the screen to bring it into focus and use the up and down
buttons or the volume control knob to adjust the value. Some options have a
single button and toggle between Off and On when pressed.
Use the different screen menus to adjust the following options. For more details,
see the Reference Manual, which is available online at www.extron.com.
Main (shown at right) — This screen is used to adjust the Sleep timer, Backlight,
Auto Backlight, LED Backlight, and Wake on Motion functions.
Volume — This screen is used to adjust the Master, Click, Sounds, and Line In
volume settings.
Time — This screen is used to set up the correct time and date.
Network — This screen is used to set the IP Address, the Subnet Mask, and to enable or disable Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP).
Video — This screen provides a small video preview window and the controls to set up the video Contrast, Color, Brightness,
and Tint.
Calibration Menu
1. From the Setup menus, press the menu button a second time (h), as shown
in the front panel diagram on page 2. This opens the Calibration Screen.
For more details, see the Reference Manual. Once all four points have been
calibrated, the screen returns to the Setup Menu.
2. Press Exit to close the on screen menus.
Reset Modes
The TLP 700 TV has four reset modes that can be initiated by using a paperclip to
press the Reset button (i) in the front panel diagram on page 1.
Factory Firmware mode: Hold the Reset button while applying power to reset the
unit back to the base firmware shipped with the unit.
Run/Stop Events mode: Hold the Reset button until the reset LED blinks once (3 seconds), then release and press Reset
momentarily (less than 1 second) within 1 second. This mode turns events either On or Off.
Reset All IP Settings mode: Hold the Reset button until the reset LED blinks twice (6 seconds), then release and press Reset
momentarily (less than 1 second) within 1 second. This mode resets the IP address, subnet, gateway, port mapping, and
DHCP settings back to factory defaults. The reset LED blinks 4 times in quick succession, confirming the reset and turning
events off. If necessary, reset the IP address, using ARP and the MAC address.
Reset Factory Defaults mode: Hold the Reset button until the reset LED blinks three times (9 seconds), then release and
press Reset momentarily (less than 1 second) within 1 second. This mode causes a complete reset to the factory defaults
(except firmware).
