Mounting the Mini-Touch Panels
The following paragraphs describe mounting the Decor and rack-mount touch panels. TiltScreen
touch panels can be placed on any flat surface.
Decor style panels with low-profile Back Boxes
The touch panel must always be installed with the release slot located at the bottom.
1. Cut out the surface using the dimensions shown in FIG. 1.
2. Carefully insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the release slot on the touch panel’s faceplate and
remove the engraved overlay.
3. Place the touch panel into the cutout and mark the screw insert positions, as shown in FIG. 1.
4. Remove the touch panel and drill four #6-32 insert holes. Then, place a threaded insert into
each hole.
5. Disconnect the AXlink connector from the Central Controller.
6. Fasten the low-profile Back Box to the surface using the #6-32 machine screws supplied with
the enclosure.

7. Attach the data and power wiring to the touch panel.
8. Test the connection by reconnecting the AXlink connector to the Central Controller. Before
continuing, disconnect all connections until panel installation is complete.
9. Fasten the touch panel and low-profile Back Box using the #6-32 machine screws supplied
with the enclosure panel.
10. Place the faceplate onto the bezel. You can also secure the faceplate to the bezel using the four
Phillips flathead security screws. Once attached to the faceplate, the security screws cannot be
replaced without removing the overlay.
11. Remove the backing from the adhesive tape strips located on the front of the panel; press the
engraved overlay onto the faceplate.
12. Reconnect the AXlink wiring to the Central Controller. The touch panel beeps when power is
applied.
Installing touch panels and a BB-MTP Back Box (solid surfaces)
FIG. 2 shows an AXD-MLC/PB and BB-MTP UniMount Back Box for solid surfaces.
1. Cut out the surface using the dimensions shown in FIG. 3.
2. Carefully insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the release slot on the touch panel’s bezel and
remove the engraved overlay.
3. Lay the touch panel facedown on a soft cloth and remove the screws from the low-profile Back
Box; remove the Back Box and discard.
4. Place the BB-MTP into the cutout and mark the threaded insert positions, as shown in FIG. 3.

Preparing captive wires
You will need a wire stripper, soldering iron, and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the
captive wires.
1. Strip 0.25 inch of wire insulation off all wires and apply a light coat of solder to the ends using
a soldering iron.
2. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring
diagrams and connector types described in this subsection.
3. Turn the flat-blade screws clockwise to secure the wire in the connector. Do not over-torque
the screws; doing so can bend the seating pin and damage the connector.
Wiring guidelines
The touch panels require 12 VDC power to operate properly. The Central Controller supplies power
via the AXlink cable or external 12 VDC power supply. The maximum wiring distance between the
Central Controller and touch panel is determined by power consumption, supplied voltage, and the
wire gauge used for the cable. The table below lists wire sizes and the maximum lengths allowable
between the mini-touch panel and Central Controller. The maximum wiring lengths for using
AXlink power are based on a minimum of 13.5 volts available at the Central Controller’s power
supply. Refer to the Specifications section on page 1 for more information
If you install the touch panel farther away from the Central Controller than recommended in the
Wiring Guidelines table, connect an external 12 VDC power supply to the panel as shown in the
wiring diagrams in this subsection.
Using the AXlink mini-XLR connector for data and power (AXT-MLC and AXW-MLC)
Connect the Central Controller’s AXlink connector to the mini-XLR connector (male) on the rear
panel of the TiltScreen and wood enclosure mini-touch panels for data and 12 VDC power, as
shown in FIG. 9.
Do not connect power to the touch panel until the wiring is complete. If you are using
a 12 VDC power supply, apply power to the touch panel only after installation is
complete.

Designing Touch Panel Pages
There are two ways to approach creating touch panel pages:
! TPDesign3 - Refer to the TPDesign3 Touch Panel Program (Version 3. 13 or higher)
instruction manual for more information.
! On-board editor
This document describes basic use of the on-board editor to create pages and buttons. Refer to the
G3 Firmware Design and Reference instruction manual for mkore detailed firmware information.
Buttons
Standard button types include rectangles and other geometric shapes that you can create with the
touch panel editor. Buttons are set with attributes, which means there is feedback for the Controller
when you touch the button.
General buttons are part of the default touch panel program and cannot be changed. You use general
buttons to create or revise pages and specify panel communication parameters. Button examples
include selection buttons, information buttons, adjustment buttons, and operation bars. The general
button types are described in the table below.
General Button Types
Selection buttons Selection buttons appear on touch panel pages and set communica-
tion parameters.
Information buttons Information buttons are read-only and contain serial numbers, firm-
ware versions, and hardware status information. These buttons are
displayed with a triple line border to indicate they are only for infor-
mation and cannot be changed.
Adjustment buttons You can use the UP and DN buttons to set adjustment buttons. The
adjustment button example sets the baud rate for the connection
from the touch panel to the computer.
Keypad buttons The keypad button opens a keypad so you can enter a password or
value assignment. All keypad buttons are interactive except for the
entry display.
Decision buttons Decision buttons appear when an operation has two options and
requires you to verify the action before it is performed.

Designing Touch Panel Pages
14 Black/White LCD Mini-Touch Panels
Activating Edit Mode
Before designing touch panel pages and buttons, you must activate EDIT mode. Use the EDIT
button to enter Edit mode. When powering up the touch panel, the first page is the Main page
(FIG. 13). Note that the Edit button is not available initially.
If you have a pre-programmed panel, you may not see the Main Page.
To activate edit mode:
1. Press SETUP in the Main page to open the Setup page (FIG. 14).
2. Press PROTECTED SETUP to open the keypad.
3. Enter 1988 (default password) in the keypad and press ENTER to open Protected Setup page.
If you press ENTER after typing an incorrect password, you are immediately returned to the
previous page.
General Button Types (Cont.)
Status buttons Status buttons have no functionality except to display information.
Operation bars Operation bars appear in the place of the Editor bar after you have
selected a button or page edit operation. The operation bar indicates
which edit function is currently active. When an edit operation is
selected, it remains active until you press EXIT.
Touch to Continue buttons "Touch to Continue" buttons appear when an operation requires user
acknowledgement.
Joystick buttons Joysticks are vertical and horizontal direction controllers for use with
pan and tilt camera controllers.
Bargraph buttons Bargraph buttons display a dynamic bargraph (vertical or horizontal).
An example is the Batter level indicator button.
