Connecting the Touch 8 user interface
The Cisco TelePresence Touch 8 user interface is an
alternative to the remote control and on screen menus.
When Touch 8 is connected to the codec, the remote control
cannot be used. You have to disconnect (unpair) Touch 8 in
order to to use the remote control.
Connecting Touch 8
Touch 8 must be connected to the codec via LAN. The
connection is via the provided power adapter, as illustrated
above.
Make sure that the codec’s NetworkServices > SSH > Mode
2
setting is turned On to be able to connect.
The process of associating Touch 8 to the codec is called
paring. Note that the codec is signalling that it is available for
pairing for only 30 minutes after it is switched on.
We recommend that Touch 8 and the video system is kept on
the same subnet.
Touch 8 set-up
Once Touch 8 is connected to power, the set-up procedure
begins. Follow the instructions on screen.
If the codec is not in the list of available codecs displayed
on the Touch controller, you can choose a codec
manually by entering its IP address.
If Touch 8 needs software upgrade, new software will
be downloaded from the codec and installed on the unit
automatically as part of the set-up procedure. Touch 8
restarts after the upgrade.
You can verify that Touch 8 is successfully paired to the
codec by checking that the codec address is displayed in the
top banner.
If you want more details on Touch installation, please read the
Cisco TelePresence Touch 8 inch Installation Guide, which is
available on the Cisco web site.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) must be disabled on the Ethernet switch, because the inline power adapter does not support PoE input from the
Ethernet switch.

You will find this setting in the Advanced Configuration on-screen menu (remote control) or in the System Configuration page on the web
interface.
