7 in. Crestron Room Scheduling Touch Screen with Room Availability Options

Crestron® TSS-7 series room scheduling touch screens provide corporate enterprises and organizations with an invaluable productivity tool to enhance and simplify scheduling meeting rooms and spaces. They install at the entrance to each room and integrate seamlessly with a variety of popular scheduling services to provide an indication of the room’s availability and a view of its schedule for the day. Simple onscreen tools enable individuals to reserve the room, or find another available room, without having to pull out their phone or log onto a computer.

Crestron TSS-7 room scheduling touch screens help organizations to maximize productivity and realize the most usable time out of every room. If a room is currently reserved, the associated touch screen displays details about the current meeting, accented in red, so attendees can immediately confirm they’re in the right place before entering the room. If the room is currently available, the screen states so in green and shows the time remaining until the next scheduled meeting. If desired, the room can be reserved on the spot for an ad hoc meeting.

If you wish to reserve a room for later in the day, just step up to any touch screen, swipe through the room’s timeline for the day, and reserve the room for any available time slot. If that room isn’t available when you want it, the touch screen can find you another available room nearby so you can book your meeting in place without running around the building. Additional optional functions include the abilities to check into a scheduled meeting, extend a meeting, end a meeting early, toggle between two languages, or limit access to various functions using PIN code authorization. [2]

Crestron room scheduling also offers three levels of customization depending on your needs. For basic customization and branding, custom background images or videos and custom logos may be selected to personalize the standard user interface from Crestron. For editing the user interface elements further, such as changing colors, adjusting positioning, or removing elements, a custom CSS stylesheet may be created. Finally, to add entirely new user interface elements to the display, the source code for the scheduling user interface may be modified. [3]

Works with many popular room scheduling providers
The TSS-7 comes with apps for all the most popular enterprise scheduling services.

• Crestron Scheduling App – Supports direct integration with Crestron Fusion® software, Microsoft® Exchange software (for users of Outlook® software and Office 365® software), and Google Calendar™ calendaring app (including G Suite™ software).
• Third-Party Apps – Includes support for Teem®, Robin®, Appspace® [1], Zoom™, and EMS Software™ applications [4]. Other providers may be added in the future.
• Additional Options – Supports IBM® Notes® software and CollegeNET® 25Live® software through Crestron Fusion (on-premises server only).

Whatever provider you choose, the setup is as simple as connecting each touch screen to the network and choosing your app from the web-based setup menu. The selected app downloads from the cloud and installs on the touch screen automatically. There is no programming or control system required. [3]

Enhanced status indication options
Adding the optional light bar accessory (TSW-760-LB series) to a TSS-7 produces a ring of light around the perimeter of the touch screen to provide 180° visual indication of the room’s availability status. Its vivid color illumination can be seen with just a glance down the hallway, glowing green if a room is available and red when reserved. [2,5]

As an alternative to the light bar, Crestron offers a selection of hallway signs and indicators that mount on the wall or ceiling above each touch screen and illuminate green or red according to the room’s availability status. The SSW and SSC series hallway signs both feature a two-sided acrylic sign face that can be custom engraved with the room name or number. The SIW-100 offers a lower profile wall mount status indicator. [2,5]

All of the room availability status indication options are available separately, or as part of a kit including the TSS-7 series touch screen and multi-surface mount kit. For kits containing a hallway sign, custom engraving is available separately by purchasing an SSC-ACR-102 or SSW-ACR-102 replacement acrylic sign face.

Please see specifications tab for footnotes

1. Appspace functionality is currently limited to their Room Management feature (aka, room cards or meeting cards) only.
2. Actual functionality and on-screen appearance varies based on which scheduling app is in use and how the app is set up. The functionality described in this spec sheet generally refers to the Crestron Scheduling App. Each third-party provider determines the functionality and appearance of their respective app. Refer to each provider’s website for more information.
3. For more information on custom programming for the Crestron room scheduling app, refer to the Crestron Room Scheduling Panels Programming Guide.
4. Additional subscriptions and/or licenses may be required. Refer to each provider’s website for details about the capabilities and requirements of its scheduling application and services. Third-party apps typically run on the TSS-7 as they do on a tablet device. The TSS-7 runs only one app, which is selected at setup. Only the apps approved and delivered by Crestron can run on the TSS-7. The TSS-7 cannot be interfaced with a control system and cannot be custom programmed for any other functionality. An internet connection is required.
5. The light bar and hallway sign accessories are sold separately or as part of a TSS-7 series touch screen kit. Only one light bar or hallway sign may be connected to the TSS-7. Use of either accessory precludes use of the other without the addition of a custom-programmed control system and Cresnet wiring for the hallway sign. Refer to the Accessories section for a list of all available options. Refer to each accessory’s spec sheet for further information.
6. Onboard PinPoint beacon functionality is not currently supported and will be enabled through a future update. When enabled, the TSS-7 will provide an integrated, equivalent alternative to the standalone PP-100-W beacon. For more details, refer to the PP-100-W spec sheet. Bluetooth technology is used solely for proximity detection and does not transmit or receive any control, multimedia, or personal data. PinPoint beacons are only visible to Bluetooth enabled devices that are specifically programmed and configured to work with them.
7. Complimentary XiO Cloud subscriptions are subject to the terms of the Crestron Cloudware License Agreement. Complimentary subscriptions may be applied to new accounts only. New TSS-7 room scheduling touch screens may be added to existing XiO Cloud subscription accounts at a discounted rate. An additional purchase toward the existing subscription account term may be required.
8. The TSW-UMB-60, TSW-UMB-60-PMK, and TSW-UMB-60-BBI are all sold separately. The TSW-UMB-60 is also compatible with older TSW-UMB-PMK preconstruction mounting kits and TSW-550-BBI back boxes, allowing the TSS-7 touch screen to be installed in place of a previous generation TSW-5xx series touch screen, or any other device that was originally installed using the a TSW-UMB-PMK or TSW-550-BBI, without modification to the wall.
