ID DOWN or UP button to select the RF ID that was assigned to the
touchpanel in “Programming with SIMPL Windows”.
7. The RF CHANNEL is important because it allows the radio in a
touchpanel to communicate with the radio in the TPS-RFGWX. If the
RF CHANNELs match, the RF-enabled panel can communicate to the
system via the pre-defined frequency channel. These codes, which
range from 0 to F are selected from this menu and must match the ID
assigned via Crestron software. Press RF CHANNEL DOWN or UP
button to set the RF CHANNEL. The RF CHANNEL must match the
RF CHANNEL of the TPS-RFGWX that was assigned with Viewport.

VT Pro-e Analog Join Number
A join number is a feature of the VT Pro-e that enables a designer to create a button,
slider or gauge on a touchpanel page that completes a predetermined function. For
the TPS-XTXRF equipped touchpanel, analog join number 17507 may be used for a
TPS-BTP battery gauge. There is also another analog join number 17514 that is used
to determine the state of the battery pack. The response is a number that ranges from
0 to 4 and each value is defined as follows.
• 0 – Battery Not Installed:
Battery is not installed or seated properly.
• 1 – Battery Discharging
Battery is detected, but no charging action is being taken. Battery
powers the RF-enabled panel while battery is discharging.
• 2 – Battery Charging:
Battery is fast charging at the maximum possible current (up to
approximately 1.5 A).
• 3 – Battery Full
Battery has finished charging.
• 4 –Battery Slow Charging
Battery is charging in slow charging mode.
NOTE: Upon power up, the battery level and battery state gauges that utilize these
analog join numbers may take up to one minute to update.
Operation
A TPS-XTXRF equipped touchpanel operates the same as a Cresnet (wired)
touchpanel but with the following considerations.
WARNING: To avoid shock hazard and possible damage to the unit, do not use
touchpanel in rain or expose it to unnecessary moisture.
CAUTION: The fans located within the sides of the TPS-XTXRF Module provide
cooling air for the touchpanel. To prevent excessive internal temperature when
operating the touchpanel, do not cover the side fan intakes.
