Connecting the Cisco
TelePresence Touch 8 controller
The Cisco TelePresence Touch 8 controller is an alternative to
the remote control and on screen menus.
When a Touch controller is connected to the codec, the
remote control cannot be used. You have to disconnect
(unpair) the Touch controller in order to to use the remote
control.
Touch 8 can can be used with a C Series codec running
software version TC4.1 or later.
Connecting the Touch controller
There are two options how to connect the Touch controller to
the codec. In both cases the connection is via the provided
power adapter, as illustrated above.
A. Connecting the Touch controller to the codec via LAN.
To enable this mode of operation make sure that the
NetworkServices > SSH > Mode
*
setting is turned
On
.
The process of associating the Touch controller to the
codec is called paring. The codec is signalling that it is
available for pairing for 30 minutes after it is switched on.
We recommend that the Touch controller and video
system is kept on the same subnet.
B. Connecting the Touch controller directly to the codec’s
second Ethernet port.
To enable this mode of operation use the remote control
and navigate to
Home > Settings > Administrator settings
> Pairing > Direct pairing
and choose
On
.
Alternatively, set the
NetworkPort 2 > Mode
*
setting to
DirectPairing
.
Restart the codec for the change to take effect.
Touch controller set-up
Once the Touch controller is connected to power, the set-up
procedure begins. Follow the instructions on screen.
If you have connected the unit to the codec via LAN, you
have to choose which codec to pair with. If the codec is
not in the list of available codecs displayed on the Touch
controller, you can choose a codec manually by entering
its IP address.
If the Touch controller needs software upgrade, new software
will be downloaded from the codec and installed on the unit
automatically as part of the set-up procedure. The Touch
controller restarts after the upgrade.
You can verify that the Touch controller is successfully paired
to the codec by checking that the codec address is displayed
in the top banner.
If you want more details on Touch installation, please read the
Cisco TelePresence Touch 8 inch Installation Guide
, which is
available on the Cisco web site.
