Raising the bar for industry standards, Pharos Architectural Controls recently unveiled its latest innovation with the launch of the Designer TPS 5 (Touch Panel Station 5”). An elegant update on the original TPS, the TPS 5 uniquely combines ergonomics and aesthetics with functionality, featuring a seamless, uninterrupted glass plate that looks as refined as the touch experience itself.
The 5” capacitive touchscreen has an improved screen area compared to its predecessor, and is also more vivid and responsive. Improvements to the core functionality, touch performance, screen resolution, and vastly superior aesthetics will be appealing, and the innovative new wall-mounting solution will be welcomed. The TPS 5 can be added to any Designer system as a user interface. It complements any Designer controller from the LPCs and LPC X to the VLCs, and is also compatible with systems that include the TPC and TPS.
The TPS 5 has a fully customisable user interface enabling users to choose which controls they want, how they want them to appear, and how they would like them to respond. The interface, created in the Designer 2 software, can be used to control every aspect of your project, from starting timelines, mastering the intensity of zones, adjusting colour to suit the moment or controlling 3rd party systems through our IO modules. Integration into our triggering system provides users with an almost limitless number of possibilities when it comes to controlling their lighting installation.
One fundamental component of the TPS redesign is the Universal Mounting Plate, which can be attached directly to a surface or fitted with a wide range of regulation backboxes, including standard UK, US & EU fittings. The toolless bayonet twist system also delivers secure fastening while, at the same time, keeping the MicroSD card securely out of reach.
Clarence Faulkner, Product Manager for Designer at Pharos Architectural Controls explained: “The launch of the Designer TPS 5 is a pivotal milestone for Pharos and a clear demonstration of our ability to innovate and create market-leading products to ensure continued success within the industry.
“The pioneering TPS 5 successfully brings touch panels in lighting control up to date with sophisticated touch technologies to raise the bar for the industry. I am immensely proud of this updated system and its advanced technology which will enable us to fulfil our growing demand.”
