When the video wall system is powered down, the Touchpad screen should be dark. Touch the pad and a welcome screen with the RCS logo will be present. Touch the pad again and you should be presented with a row of persistent icons on the top: '''Settings''' (which is locked with a password); '''Apple TV Control''', which mimics a Apple TV remote; a digital clock showing the current time; and a '''power button icon''' which will let you choose to continue the power off sequence or cancel. If no action is taken from this screen, the system will power down after 30 seconds to a minute.

Below that is a persistent set of icons which represent available input sources: '''Apple TV''',  '''Wall Plate''', '''Floor Box''' (unused), '''Media Player 1''' and '''Media Player 2'''. Underneath these input sources is a graphical representation of the current setup of the video wall, which can be used in one of four configurations: '''SIDE x SIDE,'''  '''FULL''', '''PRESENTATION 1''' and '''PRESENTATION 2'''. Two configurations, '''SIDE x SIDE''' and '''PRESENTATION 2''' can display video simultaneously from one device connected via the Apple TV, and another device via the cable connection.
