TPI-PRO-DVI - Instruction Manual
Connecting USB Input Touch Devices
1. Insert the input device USB connectors into the appropriate USB connector on the TPI.
2. After the splash-screen disappears:
If a USB mouse has been connected, a mouse cursor appears on the screen and its location corresponds to the mouse
cursor position sent by the external USB mouse.
If a USB keyboard has been connected, only on-screen keyboards and keypads will reflect any external keystrokes sent
from the external USB keyboard.
If you experience problems introducing new devices, you can install the drivers on a remote PC according to manufacturer
suggestions with the device connected directly to the remote PC.
Type A & Type B USB Ports
The Type-A USB connectors on the front and rear of the TPI (labeled KEYBOARD/MOUSE) are used to provide touch input signals
from a USB keyboard and/or USB mouse (FIG. 22).
The Type-B USB connectors on the TPI (rear panel only) are used to provide communication between the TPI and the PC (FIG. 23).
Notes on USB Connections
Do not use a USB hub to connect multiple USB devices to the TPI.
Removing and reconnecting USB devices from the TPI may result in a loss of connectivity. If this occurs, reset the TPI to
allow the devices to re-establish connectivity.
When disconnecting a USB device, wait 5-10 seconds before reconnecting or connecting a new device to allow the TPI to
recognize that the device was disconnected. If connectivity is lost, reset the TPI to re-establish the connection.
NOTE: Pass-thru must be enabled when using control devices that are connected to the USB connectors on the rear of the TPI. See
the Configuring the TPI for Pass-Through Control section on page 34 for details.
