Introducing the TDC-7100
Thank you for purchasing the TDC-7100 table top networking keypad. Its easy intuitive design
helps to simplify your life while adding control of more things than you thought possible.
Enjoy some key features like:
Audio Video Intercom
Easily communicate throughout your home using the Audio Video Intercom feature amongst all
Intercom enabled devices, including Total Control Mobile devices (iOS and Android), on the
network. You can also make sure the baby is safe and sound by viewing the baby monitor right on
the TDC-7100.
Proximity Sensor
The TDC-7100 comes to life and is ready for action as it automatically senses how close you are to
the keypad. Utilizing its proximity sensor, it can detect distances from up to 100cm away, this
setting can be adjusted from within the Settings menu.
Inductive Charging
Readily charge the TDC-7100 with its sleek, easy to place charging dock. This quickly charges the
keypad in approximately five (hours) and holds a charge for up to three (3) days.

Wi-Fi Ready
Connecting to the network is made easy with built in Wi-Fi on the TDC-7100. It seamlessly
connects to your network with the Quick Wi-Fi feature and can be used anywhere in the home,

Main Menu Navigation
Although specific screen design and certain options are dictated by the custom integrator that
programmed the Total Control system, the general layout remains the same. Actual navigation is
performed through screen swipes ( ) while selecting any item is as simple as
pressing the icon/text to be selected.
Title Bar
The Title Bar is present on all TDC-7100 screens and contains valuable information during normal
use. Easily find out the time, weather, now playing and the room that the keypad is controlling.

the Title Bar opens the Time & Weather Module. For
information about this module, refer to the Time & Weather
Module section, later in this manual.
Current Room
The current room portion of the Title Bar shows the room that
the TDC-7100 is controlling. Remember, in a Total Control
system, although each room’s keypad defaults to control the
room in which is is placed, using the Rooms Menu allows it to
control any other room in the system.
Now Playing
Appearing on the right-hand side of the Title Bar, this displays the source that is currently being
used in the room that the keypad is controlling.
● The Now Playing display shows the device that is being used (in this case, William’s iPod),
associated artwork, and metadata information is displayed since it is a URC media device.
● If an activity is being performed (like DVD or cable) in the selected room, the Now Playing
section displays the activity:

Category/Device Ribbon
This ribbon shows the various categories of control that are available to the selected room. The

Power Menu
When pressed, this performs the Room Off function programmed by the custom integrator.
If this button is pressed for greater than three (3) seconds, the Power Menu appears.
In this menu, it is possible to:
● Turn Off the ROOM ( ).
● Issue the House Off command, as programmed by the custom integrator.
Custom commands, programmed by the custom integrator, may also appear in this menu.

Rooms Menu
The Rooms Menu is the “landing” screen for the TDC-7100. This menu (see picture below) displays
whenever the keypad reboots, loses/regains power, or is rest. The most common choice would be
to select the room where the TDC-7100 is physically located; however, this is up to the user.
The Rooms Menu is used to:
● Temporarily Link rooms in a Total Control DMS system. This allows all of the linked rooms
to listen to the same audio source and join the volume commands into a single interface.
● Monitor the status of other rooms in the Total Control project.
● Control any other room in the Total Control projects as if it were a keypad in that room.
This is dependent upon the programming done by the custom integrator.
Room List Buttons
● Each room listing has an associated box and action buttons.
● The Exit button returns the user to the last screen used.
● Selecting the room name allows for control of that room ( )

Initial View (Room Monitoring)
When the Rooms Menu opens up, the room list populates with all of the rooms in the Total
Control project. Each room displays its status so the user can visually see what is “going on” in
that room.
The Exit button returns the user to the previous screen.
Selecting a Room (Room Control)
To select a room, simply tap the room name on the pre-programmed list. This allows the TDC-
7100 to control that room as if it were physically there.
Returning the keypad to control the room where it is physically located requires accessing the
Rooms Menu and selecting the appropriate room.

Linking Rooms (DMS Audio Only)
Selecting the Link Rooms button opens up the Link Rooms screen with the current room already
selected. Only rooms/areas that are part of the DMS family of products appear on this menu.
● Select, using the check boxes, the rooms that you would like to LINK. Pressing the check bo
alternately “check” and “uncheck” it.
● The Go Back button cause the screen to revert to the Rooms Menu without making any
changes.
● The Done button temporarily saves the checked rooms as a linked group that can be
controlled from any of the linked rooms.
Linked Rooms are saved until the power is turned OFF, or the user manually de-links the room(s)

Using Linked Rooms
Once a room is linked, pressing the volume or mute buttons for that room causes the Linked
Rooms Volume Pop-Up to display.
● Selecting All Linked Rooms results in the volume and mute commands to operate ALL
rooms (
)
● Selecting an individual room in the Linked Room List allows the volume and mute buttons
to adjust sound ONLY for the room chosen.
Room Options
Selecting the Room Options button for a room causes the menu to expand and offer the user
various options to control the room.
● Lights Off: If the URC controlled lights are located in the selected room, the Options menu
displays a light bulb icon. Selecting this icon issues a “lights off” command for the chosen
room.
● Power Off: Selecting the power icon issues a “room off” command for the selected room.
The default for this command is to turn off all audio and video device in that room;
however, this may have been altered by the system programmer.

Shortcuts Pop-Up
The Shortcuts Pop-Up menu is designed to give the user the ability to select their most frequently
used devices/activities and place them within an easy to reach menu.
There are a maximum of six (6) shortcuts per room location.
Remember, regardless of the physical location of the TDC-7100 it may still access, via the Rooms
Menu, any of the other rooms in the Total Control system (dependent upon programming). Each
room can be assigned up to 6 shortcuts in this menu.
Only items that appear in the currently selected room are available to be added to the Shortcuts
Pop-Up.
Using the Shortcuts Pop-Up
Select the Shortcuts Pop-Up by pressing the Shortcuts icon in the Core Menu.
Using Shortcuts is easy, simply press on the Shortcut icon you want to open and the TDC-7100
opens that device.
If the screen is not touched, after 60 seconds the Shortcut Popup will close and the TKP-7500 will
revert to its previous screen.
Selecting a shortcut is the same as navigating to that same icon ( ) and
selecting it.
