Crestron TSS-10 series room scheduling touch screens provide corporate enterprises and organizations with an invaluable productivity tool to enhance and simplify scheduling meeting rooms and spaces. The touch screens install at the entrance to each room and integrate seamlessly with a variety of popular scheduling services to provide an indication of the room availability and a view of its schedule for the day. Simple onscreen tools enable individuals to reserve the room or to find another available room without using a phone or computer. Room Scheduling Apps The TSS-10 comes with apps for many popular enterprise scheduling services. Crestron room scheduling touch screens help organizations to maximize productivity and realize the most usable time out of every meeting space. If the room is reserved, its touch screen displays details about the current meeting accented in red. If the room is available, the screen states so in green and shows the time remaining until the next scheduled meeting. If desired, the room can be reserved on the spot for an ad hoc meeting.1 Crestron room scheduling also offers three levels of customization’”ranging from simply configuring settings in the web user interface to modifying the application source code for a completely unique appearance’”depending on the needs of an enterprise.2 Whatever provider you choose, the setup is as simple as connecting each touch screen to the network and choosing your app from the web-based setup menu or built-in setup screens. The selected app downloads from the cloud and installs on the touch screen automatically. There is no programming or control system required.4 Built for Enterprise Scheduling Applications The TSS-10 is an enterprise-grade device engineered to meet all the demands of a corporate office, conference center, or higher education environment. Its 10.1 in. (257 mm) capacitive display provides an intuitive and informative user interface dedicated for scheduling rooms and viewing essential meeting details. The UI can be customized and branded with your choice of background images and logos. A smaller 7 in. (178 mm) version (TSS-7 series) is also available.1 Status Indicator Options Adding the optional light bar accessory (TSW-1060-LB series) to a TSS-10 produces light around the perimeter of the touch screen. For room scheduling applications, the light bar provides 180° visual indication of a room’s availability status, illuminating green if the room is available and red when reserved.1,5 As an alternative to the light bar, Crestron offers a selection of hallway signs and indicators that mount on the wall or ceiling above each touch screen. The SSW, SSW-EL, SSC, and SSC-EL series hallway signs feature a two sided acrylic sign face that can be custom engraved with the room name or number. The SIW-100 offers a lower profile wall mount status indicator.1,5 All of the room availability status indication options are available separately, or as part of a kit including the TSS-10 series touch screen and multisurface mount kit. For kits containing a hallway sign, custom engraving is available separately by purchasing an SSC-ACR-102, SSC-ACR-102-EL, SSW-ACR-102, SSW-ACR-102-EL replacement sign face. PinPoint Beacon (Coming Soon) The built-in PinPoint proximity detection beacon enhances the intelligence and personalization of a room scheduling system by enabling your smartphone or tablet device to sense what room you’re standing in front of. It works with the Crestron PinPoint App, using Bluetooth technology to determine when the mobile device is near the beacon, and signals the mobile app to automatically display the appropriate information and controls for the room.1,6 Auto Brightness Control To ensure optimal visibility under varying lighting conditions, the TSS-10 includes a built-in light sensor, which regulates the brightness of the display according to the ambient light level in the space. Power over Ethernet Using PoE technology, the TSS-10 gets its operating power directly through the network cable. PoE (Power over Ethernet) eliminates the need for a local power supply or any dedicated power wiring. A Crestron PoE switch (CEN-SWPOE-16) offers a total networking solution with built-in PoE for multiple touch screens. NOTE: Refer to the “Power” specifications for more details. Crestron XiO Cloud Service The TSS-10 is compatible with the Crestron XiO Cloud service, which is an IoT (Internet of Things) based platform for remotely provisioning, monitoring, and managing Crestron devices across an enterprise or an entire client base. Built on the Microsoft Azure software platform and utilizing Microsoft’s industry-leading Azure IoT Hub technology, Crestron XiO Cloud enables installers and IT managers to deploy and manage thousands of devices in the time it would ordinarily take to manage just one. Unlike other virtual machine-based cloud solutions, Azure services provide unlimited scalability to suit the ever-growing needs of an enterprise.
