Touch Point 2.0

What are the training objectives?

During the training, you will gain knowledge about the Touch Point 2.0 wall panel range and how to use it in the most efficient way. You will find out how the panels work and acquire knowledge of the iSMA configuration tools. You will learn how to quickly prepare your Touch Point to work with the iSMA-B-FCU, the RAC18-IP and the ZAC24-IP-D, and how to build lighting and blind control with the new TP Light & Blind and TP-ONE panels. After the training, you will be able to take full advantage of the Touch Point 2.0 range.

Who should attend?

The course is referred to those who wish to acquire theoretical and practical knowledge on configuring Touch Point, using proper tools and techniques. It is expected that participants already have a knowledge of BMS, communication protocols (Modbus RTU, BACnet MS/TP) and basics of programming. Familiarity with the nano EDGE ENGINE and the iC Tool is helpful for the lighting lessons, but is not required. Employees, specialists, and managers who are BMS integrators or programmers are also welcomed to take the part.

What will you need to complete the course?

The course has some theoretical parts and practical parts. You can complete the course just by reading it and watching the instruction videos.

To make the practice exercises you will need a PC with Windows OS, a USB-C cable, an RS485 cable, an RJ12/RS485 adapter and an RJ12 cable, plus the free iSMA Configurator software. The basic exercises require at least one Touch Point 2.0 panel and an iSMA-B-FCU or RAC18-IP controller.

The lighting and blind exercises additionally require the iC Tool, a TP-4L or TP-4L1B panel, a TP-ONE panel and a ZAC24-IP-D controller.
