Extron TLS 835M – 8 inch Wall Mount TouchLink Scheduling Panel, White

Product Overview

TLS 835M (White), part number 60-1996-103. The Extron TLS 835M is an 8 inch wall mount room scheduling panel and part of a complete TouchLink scheduling system. It displays room status at the door and allows staff to make, view, check in to, and extend reservations in real time, either at the panel or from any device connected to the organization's calendar platform. The 1280x800 IPS touchscreen runs at 188.7 PPI with 420 nits of brightness and a 1200:1 contrast ratio, giving it strong legibility in bright circulation spaces. It integrates with Extron Wayfinding where room finding is part of the requirement.

Product Description

The 8 inch format suits doorways where a 10 inch panel crowds the frame or the mullion is narrow. Despite the smaller diagonal, the TLS 835M runs the same 1280x800 resolution as its larger sibling, which puts pixel density at 188.7 PPI and produces noticeably crisper text at close reading distance.

Brightness and contrast are actually higher than the 10.1 inch model at 420 nits and 1200:1, with LED backlighting and automatic brightness control. In practice that means the panel holds up well in glass-heavy corridors and atrium-adjacent spaces where daylight is the dominant light source for much of the day.

Booking behavior is two-way and real time. Reservations created at the panel appear in the calendar system, and reservations made from a desk or mobile device appear at the door. Check-in and extension work from either side, which is what keeps utilization reporting honest and stops abandoned bookings from holding rooms.

The panel is a projected capacitive touchscreen with plus or minus 80 degree viewing angles, 24-bit color, 4 GB DDR4 RAM, and 64 GB eMMC storage with 32 GB usable for projects. It is built for scaled deployment across a portfolio rather than as a one-room appliance. For glass-fronted rooms requiring mullion mounting, specify the Extron MMK 5 mullion mount kit, which is designed for this panel.

Key Features

• 8 inch IPS touchscreen — A 1280x800 projected capacitive display at 188.7 PPI for crisp text at close reading distance.
• 420 nit brightness — High brightness with a 1200:1 contrast ratio for legibility in daylight-heavy corridors.
• Real-time calendar integration — Reservations can be made, viewed, checked into, and extended at the panel or from any calendar-connected device.
• Auto brightness control — LED backlighting adjusts automatically as ambient light changes through the day.
• Wide viewing angles — Plus or minus 80 degrees horizontal and vertical so status reads from an approach angle.
• Extron Wayfinding integration — Works with Extron Wayfinding where room finding is part of the deployment.
• Compact door footprint — The 8 inch format suits narrow door surrounds and mullions where a larger panel does not fit.
• Black and white finishes — Two color options to match door hardware and wall finishes.
• Onboard storage — 64 GB eMMC with 32 GB usable project storage and 4 GB DDR4 RAM.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the TLS 835M compare to the TLS 1035M?

The TLS 835M is 8 inches at 420 nits with 1200:1 contrast and 188.7 PPI. The TLS 1035M is 10.1 inches at 370 nits with 900:1 contrast and 149.5 PPI. Both run 1280x800. The smaller panel is brighter and denser; the larger one reads from further down a corridor.

Which calendar platforms are supported?

It integrates natively with popular calendar systems. Confirm your platform and tenant authentication model with us during design, as configuration affects the integration path.

Can it mount to a glass door mullion?

Yes, with the Extron MMK 5 mullion mount kit, which is designed specifically for the TLS 835M and keeps the panel's side LEDs visible from both approaches.

Is the panel usable without touching it?

Room status is visible at a glance from the display and the side LED indication. Booking, check-in, and extension can also be performed from a user's own device through the calendar system rather than at the panel.

What is required on the network?

A standard structured cabling drop to each panel. Confirm PoE class and switch port budget for your panel count during design so the telecom room is sized correctly.

Can panels be deployed and managed at scale?

Yes. The TLS Series is built as part of a scheduling platform for portfolio deployment, with consistent setup and serviceability across many rooms.

What support does Creation Networks provide?

We coordinate Extron warranty and RMA handling, quote project quantities, and can advise on panel selection, mounting, and rollout sequencing for multi-room scheduling projects.
