Built for Enterprise Scheduling Applications
The TSS‑7 is an enterprise-grade device engineered to meet all the demands of a corporate office, conference center, or higher education environment. Its 7 in. (178 mm) capacitive display provides an intuitive and informative user interface dedicated for scheduling rooms and viewing essential meeting details. The UI can be customized and branded with your choice of background images and logos. A larger 10.1 in. (257 mm) version (TSS‑10 series) is also available.
-
Functional: Unlike the consumer tablet devices found in many room scheduling systems, the TSS‑7 requires no power adapter or network adapter to work. Its construction provides everything needed for scheduling applications in one compact unit that mounts over a standard electrical box or cutout. The TSS‑7 also offers high‑speed Ethernet and PoE/PoE+ connectivity, so installation is quick and easy with only one network cable required.
-
Versatile: Crestron offers a variety of mounting accessories for flush mounting to drywall and masonry or for adhering to a glass wall. Optional light bar and hallway sign accessories are available to increase the visibility of status indication and room identification.
-
Reliable: Consumer tablets are meant for mobile handheld use and not permanent installs. By contrast, Crestron touch screens are purpose‑built for permanent installation and years of reliable 24/7 operation in a commercial environment. Wired network connectivity ensures dependable, high-speed performance. To ensure the latest features, the TSS‑7 checks nightly for app updates and loads the latest version automatically.
-
Secure: Crestron touch screens employ enterprise-grade networking with robust security features such as 802.1X authentication, TLS encryption, HTTPS connectivity, and Active Directory® service integration. These features protect your network against service interruptions and malicious intrusions and ensure compliance with your organization’s network policies.
-
Manageable: Crestron touch screens feature cloud‑based provisioning and management to streamline the process of configuring and monitoring every touch screen on the network and keeping them updated. They also support SNMP, so they can be monitored by your IT administrator alongside every other device on the network.
-
Cost‑Effective: Crestron touch screens offer clear advantages over other alternatives, but that doesn’t mean they cost more. The TSS‑7 series delivers a comparable or lower cost solution compared to buying tablets and adding all the extra peripherals and maintenance they require.
Status Indicator Options
Adding the optional light bar accessory (TSW-760-LB series) to a TSS‑7 produces light around the perimeter of the touch screen. For room scheduling applications, the light bar provides 180° visual indication of a room’s availability status, illuminating green if the room is available and red when reserved.
Auto Brightness Control
To ensure optimal visibility under varying lighting conditions, the TSS‑7 includes a built-in light sensor, which regulates the brightness of the display according to the ambient light level in the space.
Power over Ethernet
Using PoE technology, the TSS‑7 gets its operating power directly through the network cable. PoE (Power over Ethernet) eliminates the need for a local power supply or any dedicated power wiring. A Crestron PoE switch (CEN‑SWPOE‑16) offers a total networking solution with built‑in PoE for multiple touch screens.
Crestron XiO Cloud Service
The TSS‑7 is compatible with the Crestron XiO Cloud® service, which is an IoT (Internet of Things) based platform for remotely provisioning, monitoring, and managing Crestron devices across an enterprise or an entire client base. Built on the Microsoft® Azure® software platform and utilizing Microsoft's industry‑leading Azure IoT Hub technology, Crestron XiO Cloud enables installers and IT managers to deploy and manage thousands of devices in the time it previously took to manage just one. Unlike other virtual machine‑based cloud solutions, Azure services provide unlimited scalability to suit the ever‑growing needs of an enterprise.
Versatile Mounting Options
Using the bracket provided, the TSS‑7 is easily installed over a 2‑gang or 3‑gang electrical box, or a 2‑gang European or UK electrical box. The same bracket allows for installation over a rectangular cutout in wooden paneling or furniture. When installed, the touch screen protrudes only 1/2 in. from the mounting surface and leaves no visible screws for an ultra clean appearance. A security latch option is included to deter unauthorized removal of the touch screen.
Additional mounting options are afforded using the TSW‑UMB‑60 universal mounting bracket:
- Can be used by itself as a postconstruction solution for retrofitting the TSS‑7 into existing drywall.
- Can be used with the TSW‑UMB‑60‑PMK preconstruction mounting kit for applications that don’t require a back box.
- Can be used with the TSW‑UMB‑60‑BBI back box for masonry and concrete applications.
The TS‑7‑MSMK allows a TSS‑7 touch screen to be mounted to virtually any flat surface, which is ideal for mounting at the entrance to a meeting space for room scheduling applications. The TSW‑760/1060‑MSMK provides a similar surface mounting solution that can also be mounted over a conventional electrical box. When installed using the TSW‑760/1060‑MSMK, the touch screen is angled upwards at a 20° tilt.
Though not typical for most room scheduling applications, Crestron offers tabletop and rack mount kits that are compatible with the TSS‑7. When installing the TSS‑7 in place of an older Crestron touch screen (APAD, CT‑1000, LC‑1000, TPS‑4L, TPS‑6L, or TPS‑2000L), Crestron offers retrofit mounting brackets, which facilitate replacement without having to tear out the old mounting hardware or patch the wall.
