detailed explanation of each step.

1. 

Before starting, download and install the latest versions of the following software:

 

…

GUI Designer

 — for designing layouts for Extron TouchLink Pro touchpanels and 

third party touch interfaces.

 

…

Global Configurator Plus and Professional

 — for setting up and configuring 

IPL Pro controllers, MediaLink Plus control processors, and TouchLink Pro devices.

NOTE:

 

The TLC Pro 521M has an integrated controller. No external controller is 

required.

 

…

Toolbelt

 — provides device discovery, device information, firmware updates, 

and configuration of network settings, system utilities, and user management for 
TouchLink Pro devices. 

See

 on page 19.

2. 

Obtain the following network information from your network administrator:

 

…

DHCP status

 (on or off). If DHCP is off, you will also require:

 

…

IP address

 

…

Subnet mask

 

…

Gateway

 

…

User name — By default these are either 

admin

 or

.

 

…

Passwords  — By default these are 

extron

 (for both admin and user).

 

…

MAC address  — Make a note of the touchpanel MAC address, which can be found 
on the rear panel label.
