CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN

WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

SEE OWNERS MANUAL. VOIR CAHIER D’INSTRUCTIONS.

• The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product (i.e. this Quick Start Guide).
• CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, do not use the polarized plug supplied with the device with any extension cord, receptacle, or another outlet unless the prongs can be fully inserted.
• User Serviceable Parts: There are no user-serviceable parts inside this Symetrix product. In case of failure, customers inside the U.S. should refer all servicing to the Symetrix factory. Customers outside the U.S. should refer all servicing to an authorized Symetrix distributor. Distributor contact information is available online at: http://www.symetrix.co.

Wall Mount Installation Instructions

1. Screw the universal flush mount bracket into the wall-mounted back box using the appropriate screws for US or EU boxes as shown below. Ensure the alignment hole is facing up.
2. Optional, if portrait mounting the touchscreen, remove the four (4) screws on the T-10 Glass rear panel support bracket. Rotate the support bracket 90 degrees so the RJ-45 points down in the desired orientation and ensure the indicated alignment hole in the support bracket is pointed up. Take care not to disconnect or strain the internal cables when rotating the bracket. Reattach with the same screws. The same steps can be performed to convert a portrait screen back to landscape.
3. Connect the CAT5/6 cable to the T-10 Glass touchscreen.
4. Align and gently press the T-10 unit onto the wall mount bracket. Ensure the alignment hole on the T-10 is facing up. The support bracket should entirely conceal the wall mount bracket. Insert a pin (e.g. a small screwdriver or pen) into the alignment hole on the top of the mount to temporarily secure the unit to the wall. Using the included torx screwdriver, screw the two (2) top set screws partially into the mount. Screw the remaining two (2) set screws into the bottom of the mount until tight. Remove the pin from the alignment hole. If the unit is not level adjust the set screws as needed.
5. To remove the T-10 Glass from the universal wall mount bracket, unscrew the four (4) set screws using the included torx screwdriver and remove the unit from the wall.

Tabletop Stand Installation Instructions

The instructions below describe how to mount the T-10 to the optional tabletop stand (purchased separately).

1. Attach the universal flush mount bracket to the upper and lower table mount stand sections using the eight (8) included 6-32 x ¼” screws, as shown. Ensure the alignment hole is facing up for the desired angle of the stand.
2. Attach the four (4) included non-skid pads to the underside of either the upper or lower table mount bracket, depending on which surface will be rested upon.
3. Connect the CAT5/6 cable to the T-10 Glass touchscreen through the center hole of the stand.
4. Align and gently press the T-10 unit onto the wall mount bracket. Ensure the alignment hole on the T-10 is facing up. The support bracket should entirely conceal the wall mount bracket. Using the included torx screwdriver, screw the two (2) top set screws partially into the mount. Screw the remaining two (2) set screws into the bottom of the mount until tight. If the unit is not level adjust the set screws as needed.
5. To remove the T-10 Glass from the universal wall mount bracket, unscrew the four (4) set screws using the included torx screwdriver and remove the unit from the stand.

Software Installation

Composer™ is the software that provides real-time set-up and control of the T-10 Glass touchscreen from a Windows PC environment.

Use the following procedure to install Composer™ on your computer

1. Download the Composer™ software installer from the Symetrix website (https://www.symetrix.co).
2. Double-click on the downloaded file and follow the on-screen directions to install.

After installing the software, refer to the Help File for full connection and configuration information.

Network Setup

About DHCP
T-10 Glass touchscreen boots with DHCP enabled by default. This means that as soon as you connect it to a network, it will look for a DHCP server in order to obtain an IP address. If a DHCP server is present, the T-10 Glass touchscreen will obtain an IP address from it. This process may take several minutes. With your PC attached to the same network, and thus getting its IP address from the same DHCP server, all will be ready to go.

If your network does not have a DHCP server, the T-10 Glass touchscreen will not be able to obtain an IP address. While waiting, the T-10 Glass touchscreen will default to a private IP address in the range of 169.254.x.x where x.x is the last four alphanumeric characters of the T-10 Glass touchscreen’s MAC address (MAC address hex value is converted to decimal for IP address). T-10 Glass touchscreen’s MAC address can be found on a sticker on the bottom of the hardware.

When there is no DHCP server present to assign IP addresses to the T-10 Glass touchscreen, or your PC, you may need to configure your PC with a static IP in the range of 169.254.x.x with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0 in order to communicate with T-10 Glass touchscreen in a direct connect mode. However, if your PC is using the default network settings, it should also have automatically self-assigned a similar private IP address in the range of 169.254.x.x.x, and if this is the case, you should be able to connect to the T-10 Glass touchscreen directly.

Even if the PC’s default settings have been changed, the T-10 Glass touchscreen will try to establish communications by setting up appropriate routing table entries to reach devices with 169.254.x.x addresses.

Connecting to T-10 Glass from a host computer on the same LAN
The T-10 Glass and the host computer require the following 3 items:

1. IP Address – The unique address of a node on a network.
2. Subnet Mask – Configuration that defines which IP addresses are included in a particular subnet.
3. Default Gateway (optional) – The IP address of a device that routes traffic from one subnet to another. (This is only needed when the PC and T-10 Glass are on different subnets).

If you are putting T-10 Glass on an existing network, a network administrator will be able to provide the above information, or it may have been provided automatically by a DHCP server. For security reasons, it is not recommended to put T-10 Glass directly on the Internet. If you do, a network administrator or your Internet Service Provider can provide the above information.

If you are on your own private network, directly or indirectly connected to T-10 Glass, you may allow the device to choose an automatic IP address or you may choose to assign it a static IP address. If you are building your own separate network with static assigned addresses, you may consider using an IP Address from one of the ”Private-Use” networks noted in RFC-1918:

1. 172.16.0.0/12 = IP Addresses 172.16.0.1 through 172.31.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.240.0.0.
2. 192.168.0.0/16 = IP Addresses 192.168.0.1 through 192.168.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0.
3. 10.0.0.0/8 = IP Addresses 10.0.0.1 through 10.254.254.254 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0.

Configuring IP Parameters Locating Hardware

IP Configuration with ComposerTM
The Locate Hardware dialog will scan the network and list available units. Select the T-10 Glass touchscreen unit you wish to assign an IP address to and click the Properties button. If you wish to assign a T-10 Glass touchscreen a static IP address, select “Use the following IP address” and enter the appropriate IP address, Subnet mask and
Gateway. Click OK when finished. Now, back in the Locate Hardware dialog, ensure the T-10 Glass touchscreen device is selected and click “Select Hardware Unit” to use this T-10 Glass touchscreen hardware in your Site File.

Close the Locate Hardware dialog.

Reset Switch
To be used under the supervision of technical support, it has the ability to reset the T-10 Glass touchscreen’s network configuration and completely reset the unit to factory defaults. Locate the reset switch through the vents on the bottom side of the T-10 Glass rear cover.

1. Short press and release: Reboots the unit.
2. Long press and hold, release when unit reboots: Resets network configuration, returns to DHCP.
3. Apply power while holding, release after unit boots then reboots: Factory resets unit.
