TLP Pro 520M and TLC Pro 521M • Setup Guide
Overview
The Extron TLP Pro 520M and TLC Pro 521M are 5 inch wall mounted touchpanels with 800x480 capacitive glass touchscreen.
The Extron TLC Pro 521M also features a built-in controller in a compact form factor. They are ideal for any AV application requiring
compact touchpanels with exible mounting options and a fully customizable interface. This guide provides instructions for
experienced installers to mount and install these touchpanels. For complete instructions, see the TLPPro 520M and TLCPro 521M
User Guide, at www.extron.com.
Setup Checklist
Get Ready
Download and install the latest version of the following software:
GUI Designer — for designing layouts for Extron TouchLink®Pro touchpanels and third party touch interfaces.
Global Configurator®Plus and Professional — for setting up and conguring the control processor and touchpanel.
Toolbelt — provides device discovery, device information, rmware updates, and conguration of network settings,
system utilities, and user management for TouchLink Pro devices.
All three software programs are available from www.extron.com.
Obtain the following network information from your network administrator:
DHCP status (on or off). If DHCP is off, you will also require
IP address Subnet mask Gateway
User name — this can be either admin or user.
Password — by default this is extron (for either admin or user).
Make a note of the touchpanel MAC address (see the rear panel label).
Mount and Cable All Devices
ATTENTION:
• Do not power on the touchpanels or control processors until you have read the Attention in the Power Supply section
of the TLP Pro 520M and TLCPro 521M User Guide or the IPL Pro User Guide.
• Ne branchez pas les écrans tactiles ou les contrôleurs avant d’avoir lu la mise en garde dans la section «sources
d’alimentation» du TLP Pro 520M and TLCPro 521M UserGuide ou du IPLProUserGuide.
Mount the units. There are several mounting options for TouchLink Pro touchpanels (see Mounting on the following page).
Connect cables to the touchpanel.
Connect the power cords and power on all devices.
Set Up the Touchpanels for Network Communication
Connect the PC that you will use for setup, the control processor (for the TLP Pro 520M), and the touchpanel to the same
Ethernet subnetwork.
Use the Setup Menu (see page 6) or Toolbelt to set the DHCP status and, if necessary, the IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, and related settings for the touchpanel.
Configure the Touchpanels
The GUI Designer Help File, Global Configurator Help File, and the Toolbelt Help File provide step-by-step instructions and more
detailed information. The Global Configurator Help File includes an introduction to the software and sections on how to start a project
and conguration.

TLP Pro 520M and TLC Pro 521M • Setup Guide (Continued)
Mounting
These touchpanels can be mounted in walls or furniture (see Wall-mounting or Furniture-mounting, below) or with a range of kits
(see Mounting Kits, below).
Wall-mounting or Furniture-mounting
Figure 1 shows the TLP Pro 520M. Mount the TLC Pro 521M in the same way.
Either touchpanel can be mounted directly to the wall or directly into furniture, such as a podium or table, without a kit.
ATTENTION:
• Do not install the TLP Pro 520M or TLC Pro 521M in a re resistant rated wall or partition assembly.
• Ne pas installer le TLP Pro 520M ou le TLC Pro 521M dans un mur résistant au feu ou une cloison.
To mount the touchpanel directly into drywall, follow these steps. The steps are similar if the unit is mounted in furniture.
You will need a marking pen, a wallboard saw or jigsaw, a le or sandpaper, and a Phillips head screwdriver.
1. Use the cut-out template (available from www.extron.com) to mark the wall at a suitable location.
2. Use a wallboard saw or jigsaw to cut away the material within the guidelines drawn in step 1.
3. If there is insulation inside the drywall, remove at least 6inches of the insulation in all directions around the opening.
4. Check the size of the opening by inserting the included wallplate adapter into it.
5. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to tighten the locking arm screws of the wallplate adapter (see gure 1, 5). As the screws
tighten, the locking arms rotate behind the wall and hold the adapter in place.
ATTENTION:
• Do not overtighten the screws as this can damage the catches or the wall.
• Ne serrez pas trop les vis au risque d’endommager les attaches ou le mur.
6. Route cables, leaving enough slack to connect them to the back of the touchpanel.
7. Plug the cables into the rear panel connectors (see Rear Panel Features and
figure4 on page 4).
zIf required, insert captive screw connectors into the control ports.
zConnect the LAN port to the PoE power injector or
a PoE enabled switch.
zIf you use the LAN port only as a network
connection, connect a 12 VDC, 1.0 A power supply
to the 2-pole captive screw power input connector.
NOTE: Either the power injector or the 12 VDC
power supply must be purchased separately.
Push excess cables into the wall cavity.
8. Press the touchpanel onto the wallplate adapter (8)
until it snaps into place. Four catches, two on each
side, hold the touchpanel in place.
9. Remove the bezel by inserting the provided Extron
pry tool into the notches on the bottom surface of
the bezel (9).
10. Fasten the touchpanel to the wallplate adapter with
the two provided #4-40 x ¼” Phillips head screws
(¢). For extra security, use two security screws
(not provided).
11. Reattach the bezel.
12. If required, perform the initial conguration, using the Setup Menu (see page 6).

Reset Modes: a Brief Summary
The TLP Pro 520M and TLC Pro 521M offer the following reset modes:
• Use factory firmware: Press and hold the Reset button (figure 4, D) while applying power to the unit. Use this
mode to replace rmware in the event of rmware failure.
• Project Recovery:
(TLC Pro 521M only)
This mode is activated using Global Congurator Plus and Professional. See the
Global Configurator Help File for more information.
• Reset All IP Settings: Press and hold the Reset button for 6 seconds. After the Reset LED (figure 4, C) ashes
twice, release and momentarily press the Reset button. Use this mode to reset all network
settings without affecting user-loaded les.
• Reset to Factory Defaults: Press and hold the Reset button for 9 seconds. After the Reset LED ashes three times,
release and momentarily press the Reset button. Use this mode to return the interface to
factory default settings.
Setup Menu
The setup menu opens when the menu button is pressed (see Front Panel
Features, Gon page 3). Figure 8 shows the TLP Pro 520M menu. The
setup menu for the TLC Pro 521M is very similar.
There are ve different screens: Status, (shown in gure 8) Network,
Display, Audio, and Advanced. The screens can be selected by pressing
the appropriate button in the navigation bar at the top of the screen (for
more information, see the TLPPro 520M and TLC Pro 521M User Guide).
