The touchscreen display time-out feature
turns off the display and the backlight af-
ter a period of inactivity. Turning off the
display and backlight eliminates distrac-
tions from the display in a darkened room
and extends battery life.

To adjust the display time-out:
1 On the Home menu, select TC1000

Settings.

2 Select Set display time-out, and then

follow the on-screen instructions.

The Take Control software employs the
power of your computer to help you 
define and configure settings on your sys-
tem controller – beyond the capabilities of
the TC1000 system controller alone.

You can customize individual preferences
for each activity and redefine the way in
which buttons work.

To set up the Take Control software:

1 Start the Take Control software.

2 Connect the TC1000 to your 

computer.

You can start the Take Control software in
seconds. Take a moment to review the
minimum computer system requirements,
described within “Technical Specifica-
tions,” page 34, and ensure that your
computer system is compatible with the
software.

Note Starting the Take Control software auto-
matically installs a minimum set of files onto your
hard disk. To remove them, see “Removing the
TC1000 Files Copied onto Your Hard Disk.”

Starting the software requires use of the
TC1000 compact disc.

To start the TC1000 software:

1 Insert the TC1000 compact disc into

your CD-ROM drive.

2 Answer the questions in the wizard that

appears on your screen. If the on-screen
wizard does not start automatically,
click the Start button, click Run, and
then type <drive>:\TC1000.exe. For
example, if the compact disc is in drive
E, type E:\TC1000.exe.

You may choose at some point to remove
the TC1000 files from your hard disk.

To remove the TC1000 files:

1 Click the Start button, click Settings,

and then click Control Panel.

2 Double-click Add/Remove Programs,

select TC1000, and then click 
Add/Remove.

When you connect Take Control to your
computer, you can transfer data between
the TC1000 and your computer. Transfer-
ring data enables the TC1000 to use the
configuration changes that you set up
with software in your computer – an 
extremely powerful capability.

To connect the TC1000 to your 
computer:

1 Insert the TC1000 compact disc into

your CD-ROM drive.

2 Plug the computer-connector plug of

the serial cable into the computer-con-
nector port on top of the system
controller.

3 Plug the 9-pin connector into a serial

port on your computer.

If you added a device using only Take Con-
trol, the Setup Wizard automatically ap-
pears on your computer screen the first
time you connect Take Control to your
computer, giving you an opportunity to
enhance the setup by adding or 
removing buttons. 

Once you complete the Setup Wizard,
you proceed to the Take Control Editor,
which enables you to customize the set-
tings in the TC1000. Subsequently, when-
ever you insert the TC1000 compact disc
into your CD-ROM drive, the Take Con-
trol Editor starts automatically.

When you connect Take Control to your
computer, you are prompted to synchro-
nize any changes that you made on the
unit itself or in the TC1000 software. If
you accept, the updated data is trans-
ferred between the computer and the
TC1000. For example, if you create a new
activity in the TC1000 software, it is trans-
ferred to the TC1000.
If you would like additional information at
any time, you can refer to the Online
User’s Guide for detailed information,
which you can start by clicking Help.
