The TPMC8X is a compact, stylish Crestron WiFi touchpanel featuring the Windows® XP Embedded OS to deliver a 2-way wireless control solution with blazingly fast performance and native capabilities for browsing the Internet, streaming multimedia, and much more. The brilliant Crestron TPMC 8X Isys i/O WiFi Touchpanel 8.4" active-matrix SVGA display and 16-bit graphics combine to produce stunning 3D effects, high-res images, dynamic graphics and text, animations, and wireless video.

Advanced Ergonomics—Incredibly thin and compact, the TPMC-8X is designed to provide a powerful mobile control solution that's easy to hold and intuitive to use. Its magnesium alloy enclosure presents a sleek, modern appearance that is both rugged and lightweight. Adjoining the touchscreen, an integrated 5-way thumbpad and up/down arrow buttons add quick-access and tactile response for controlling functions ranging from simple volume adjustment and channel selection to on-screen menu navigation or even pan/tilt camera control.

Four additional “softkeys” are positioned below the touchscreen, programmable for context-sensitive menu functions. A stylus is even included for use with the on-screen keyboard, conveniently stowed in its own storage slot. Bluetooth® Technology—Built-in Bluetooth enables the use of a wireless mouse, keyboard, and other devices. A USB 2.0 port is also provided for connecting wired devices.

Biometric Scanner—The built-in fingerprint scanner unleashes a whole new level of convenience and security, allowing individual users to be identified instantly and logged on automatically. With just the touch of a fingertip, each user can be presented with a unique graphical interface with its own set of preferences, access privileges, and even its own look through the use of touchpanel “skins”.

Wi-Fi Wireless—Integrated 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi technology with WEP encryption delivers secure, high-speed 2-way wireless performance across wireless LAN's, affording mobile freedom and seamless communications with Crestron control systems, computers, digital media servers, and other IP-based devices.

Embedded PC—The power of Isys i/O is in its embedded PC engine, combining rock solid touchpanel performance with built-in Windows Media® Player and RealPlayer®, Internet Explorer, plus other applications including Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint®, and Adobe® Acrobat® Reader. While simultaneously controlling your home theater or boardroom, the TPMC8X provides everything needed for viewing Web pages, enjoying online music and movies, even viewing and editing documents without necessitating a separate computer.

The TPMC 8X also lets you access data and run applications on other computers via Remote Desktop, while onboard NetMeeting® and Skype™ applications enable conferencing and voice-over-IP (VoIP) capabilities right on the touchpanel.

Built on the Windows XP Embedded operating system, the TPMC-8X delivers a powerful and secure platform for touchpanel control with integrated PC capabilities. Programmatic control erases the lines between control system and PC, allowing programmers to customize each application's behavior within the touchpanel environment to create a truly powerful and user-friendly interface.
