Configuration

Communications

Device IP Address

The IP address of the nTouch 60.

Device Responding

Lit (green) when communications between the nTouch 60 and the host are working correctly.

When the project is deployed, the host is an nControl unit or nTouch 180 unit. When emulating, it is the NWare PC.

Sensors

Knob Touch

Lit (green) when the control knob on the nTouch 60 is touched.

Temperature

The temperature measured inside the nTouch 60 case.

Screen Touch

Lit (green) when the nTouch 60 screen is touched.

Display

Display Dim Level

The brightness level for the display when it is dimmed.

The valid range is 0 to 8. The default is 0.

Display Bright Level

The brightness level for the display when it is lit.

The valid range is 0 to 8. The default is 8.

Display On

Lit (green) when the screen is active (and not in sleep mode).

The brightness will be set to Display Bright Level.

Sleep Timeout (Mins)

The number of minutes after someone last interacts with the unit (turning the knob, for example) before the unit switches into sleep mode; when this happens, the display turns black.

If you specify 0 (zero), the unit will never switch into sleep mode.

Caution: The nTouch 60 uses an OLED display, which is susceptible to burn-in if the same image is displayed continuously for a long period of time. To minimize the risk of this problem, we recommend that you set the Sleep Timeout to 1.

Firmware

Currently Running

The version of firmware currently installed and running on the nTouch 60.

Latest Available

The version of firmware available on the host.

When the project is deployed, the host is an nControl unit or nTouch 180 unit. When emulating, it is the NWare PC..

Firmware Error

Lit (red) when an error has been detected in the firmware running on the nTouch 60.

If this LED is lit, contact MediaMatrix Technical Support for further information.

Firmware Mismatch

Lit (yellow) when the firmware running on the nTouch 60 and the firmware available on the host do not match.

When you upgrade a host (an nControl unit, for example) to the latest firmware version, this will make the latest nTouch 60 firmware available for download.

Notes:

  • To reduce the risk of compatibility problems, we recommend that all nTouch 60 units on the network run the same firmware version, and that the version matches the one available with the host firmware.
  • If the Firmware Mismatch LED is lit before you perform a firmware upgrade, it will not be immediately unlit after the upgrade has finished. The nTouch 60 checks the firmware version it is running against the latest available at set intervals, and the LED will not be unlit until the interval has elapsed.

 

Update Automatically

The version of firmware running on the nTouch 60 is compared with the version available on the host. If the version on the nTouch 60 is earlier, it is updated automatically.

Update Now

Updates the firmware on the nTouch 60 to the version available on the host.
