1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
The TDM-150 LCD Timer Displays show the VoteLynx presentation timer count in minutes &
seconds to presenters and audience in the meeting room. Large red yellow and green graphics
indicate start stop and wrap-up cues. Large bright green numbers give presenters a visual status
of how much time they have left to speak during the meeting.
TDM-150 Timer Displays are available in two styles both with 2.6” diagonal LCD displays. The
TDM-150F is designed for podium or in-desk mounting and fits into most single gang electrical
openings. The TDM-150D is a desktop version for use in tabletop applications. Both models
contain a configurable audio annunciator to provide audio cues and prompts as desired. The timer
displays can be powered by POE or external 5 volt supply.
The timer display modules may be used with any VoteLynx system configuration. One or more
timer displays of either configuration may be connected together. For example one timer display
could be located on the podium top surface for a presenter to see while another display could

available to drive microphone LED light rings.
