78034 TekTouchPad Touchscreen Controller
Installation Guide
Included in this Product Package:
Step 1: Select Location for TekTouchPad
The TekTouchPad mounting wedge should be placed on the podium or table so that
it is comfortably accessible, and does not obstruct any displays or monitors.
There must be at least 3” to either side of the wedge to allow for normal
usage. The wedge is approximately 4-3/4” long & 2-13/16” wide.
Step 2: Drill Screw & Cable Passthrough Holes
With the TekTouchPad mounting wedge in its intended location, lightly trace
around its perimeter with a pencil. Remove the wedge, and mark the positions
of all five (5) holes shown on the hole template. When mounted, the lower end
of the angled wedge face should be facing towards the user.
Using a 1/16” bit, drill the four (4) holes—one in each corner—for mounting
the wedge to a depth of ½”. Next, use a 5/8” bit to drill the central cable
passthrough hole all the way through the table surface. Clean away all
sawdust and/or debris from the drilling process.
Step 3: Attach Mounting Wedge to Table
Using the four (4) provided wood screws, attach the TekTouchPad mounting wedge
to the table. With the taller end of the wedge facing away from the user, the
four mounting posts on the wedge should align with the 1/16” holes drilled in
Step 2.
Tighten screws until snug, but do not overtighten, as this can damage the
wedge.
Ensure that the wedge is stable before proceeding.
Step 4: Fasten Back Mounting Plate to Wedge
Using the two (2) provided machine screws, attach the back mounting plate to
the angled face of the wedge. Ensure that the “TOP” text on the back mounting
plate is facing upwards, and that the arrows point towards the taller end of
the wedge.
Be very careful not to overtighten these screws, as this can warp the plate
and prevent the TekTouchPad from seating properly.
Step 5: Route Cable up through Mounting Wedge
Route clear plastic RJ12 head of serial cable from underneath table surface through 5/8” hole drilled in Step 2. Run cable out through rectangular opening in mounting wedge, with at least 6” of slack.
Step 6: Connect & Mount TekTouchPad
Connect clear plastic RJ12 head of serial cable to port on back of
TekTouchPad. Ensure that the head clicks into place.
Orient the TekTouchPad such that the cable runs directly downward, and the
wider portion of the housing is lower. Gently push the TekTouchPad towards the
mounting wedge, ensuring that the cable does not get pinched, kinked, or bent
too sharply.
Align the four posts of the back mounting plate with the four holes on the
back of the TekTouchPad housing. Once aligned, push the TekTouchPad towards
the mounting plate until mounted securely.
Check that the TekTouchPad does not move when pressed.
Step 7: Finalize Cabling
Plug green 4-pin connector of serial cable into RS232 port of 1201-MV Ensure that all cables are neatly routed, and that any excess length is neatly coiled without obstructing access to any equipment.
