Overview
The TS-TPC-8390 is a complete touch panel computer solution comprised of a 7" TFT LCD, TS-8390 baseboard and a choice of macrocontroller CPUs. It is an ideal solution for applications requiring a touch screen human machine interface (HMI), such as industrial automation, home automation, self-service machines, and point-of-sale terminals. This product offers an excellent value with a full range of features and industry standard connectors and a fanless, low power, high performance modular design. TS-TPC-8390 also provides an upgrade path for Technologic Systems' customers currently using TS-TPC-7390 and TS-TPC-7395 products.

See the TS-4700 page for functionality regarding the CPU, FPGA, and OS.
Getting Started
The TS-8390 board has no specific boot sequence since the processor and Linux Operating System are located on the selected TS-4000 Series Macrocontroller. For the rest of the boot and setup procedure, please refer to the manual for the selected TS-4000 series Macrocontroller you are using.
Before attempting to apply power to the TS-8390, perform the following steps while taking proper static discharge precautions
- Place the TS-8390 base board on a firm non-conductive surface.
- Alternatively on the provided stand.
- Carefully, insert the TS-4000 Series Macrocontroller daughterboard by aligning and pressing evenly and firmly onto the pair of mating connectors.
- If ordered together these will already come preassembled.
- Connect the RC-DB9 to the 10 pin COM1 header lining up the red wire to the white dot on the board.
- Connect the Ethernet cable if applicable.
- Make sure the jumper is on the "Console Enable" pins, and connect the "SD Boot" pins for the full X11 interface.
- Apply 5-28V of power to the two power pins. Please note the polarity printed on the board.
- Monitor the TS-SOCKET SBC using a terminal emulator connected to the serial console port to verify that the board is operating properly
See the TS-4700 page for more details on dealing with the functionality of the macrocontroller.

The Analog to Digital Converter consists of a 4-channel 16 bit sigma-delta converter and two, 2-channel analog switches. These are configured to allow input and conversion on two differential channels and 4 single ended channels. The 6-channel Analog to Digital signals are contained on connector HD5 which is a 16 pin (2x8) 0.1" spacing header. The connector layout and the signals carried by each pin are defined below. The input range for the differential input channels is 0- 2 VDC, and the input range on the single-ended channel is nominally 0-10 VDC.
