TS-C: Effortless Transition to our New Digital Ecosystem

23 April 2026

In our previous blogs, we introduced the thinking behind TS-C and what it means for a more connected, future-ready control platform. In this blog, we take a closer look at what's changed, and how those changes translate into real-world benefits for engineers, service teams, and specifiers.

From redesigned hardware and integrated connectivity to advanced diagnostics and app-enabled configuration, TS-C has been engineered to simplify how industrial door systems are installed, improve service efficiency, and support long-term system evolution.

As the demands on industrial operations continue to grow, so too does the need for control platforms that can keep pace. TS-C rises to that challenge delivering a platform architecture, software capabilities, and digital ecosystem that together define the TS-C control platform and represents a significant step forward for the industry.

 

 


 

Platform Architecture & Hardware Design 

TS-C introduces a redesigned control platform built for the demands of today's industrial door applications, combining enhanced capacity for communication and configuration.

Key hardware characteristics include:

  • Compact and robust enclosure, measuring 175W x 390H x 90D (mm), with improved cable management and wiring access
  • Integrated snap‑off mounting brackets enable flexible placement for convenient and quicker installation
  • Engineered to provide installation efficiencies with revised terminal layout, for ease of installation
  • Lever terminals reduce installation time and minimise the risk of wiring errors
  • USB‑C memory interface (model‑dependent) for a full back-up of parameters, faults, and events
  • DIF (RJ11) communication ports replace legacy UBS ports, enabling modular plug-and-play expansion
  • QR code inside the panel provides instant access to installation instructions and fault guides via the evodo-Toolkit App, with software updates managed through the evodo-Sync App

The TS-C hardware platform provides a stable, future-ready foundation, supporting both the needs of current applications and future requirements.

 


 

Integrated Connectivity

Connectivity is a core feature of TS-C. Integrated WLAN capabilities deliver secure wireless connectivity without interrupting door operation.

From a technical and service perspective, this enables:

  • Remote diagnostics, including fault, event, and parameter analysis, through evodo-Web
  • Reduced service time and fewer on‑site interventions

Access control is managed via a legislated configurable access code, ensuring system integrity is maintained while allowing controlled wireless access.

Advanced Software & Diagnostics

TS-C introduces a new software architecture designed to improve operational clarity and troubleshooting efficiency while retaining the same familiar user interface as current control panels, ensuring a smooth transition for engineers and service teams.

Key software and diagnostic enhancements include:

  • A revised fault code structure offering clearer differentiation between faults, warnings, and status messages, displayed as an F.c code
  • Expanded movement and operational feedback via updated E-codes
  • Status messaging for normal safety device activation, refining false activations
  • Automatic detection and monitoring of connected safety devices
  • Streamlining of fault types that no longer represent true system failures

For on-site engineers and technical support teams, this translates directly into faster fault identification, improved service accuracy, and reduced downtime.

 


 

Flexible Configuration & Application Adaptability 

TS‑C offers extensive input and output (I/O) configurability, allowing a single control unit to support a wide range of door types and site requirements.

Technical capabilities include:

    • Fully programmable inputs for interlocking systems, smoke draining, and weekly timers or operating calendars
    • Configurable relay outputs for traffic management, door position, and EV charging
    • Support for multifunction safety devices
    • Adjustable pull‑cord behaviour and intermediate positioning logic
    • Built-in counters for safety device activations and maintenance events
    • Adjustable handset frequency and operation

This flexibility reduces the need for multiple controller variants, simplifying stockholding and standardisation.

 


 

Radio Control & Peripheral Accessories

TS-C is built to support modern radio technologies and modular peripherals:

  • Selectable 434 MHz or 868 MHz radio frequencies
  • Integrated management of remote controls via parameters or app
  • DIF-based accessory pairing and management

This ensures compatibility with current and future access technologies while maintaining secure control.

 


 

App-Enabled Bluetooth® Configuration & Lifecycle Management

Two dedicated applications extend TS-C beyond the limits of a traditional control panel:

evodo-syncevodo-Sync App

Enables wireless, on-site software updates, ensuring  controllers remain current with the latest enhancements 

evodo-Toolkitevodo-Toolkit App

Provides local parameter access, diagnostics, access code management, time/date configuration, timers, and WLAN settings, all via Bluetooth®

This ecosystem supports predictive maintenance, remote support models, and reduced lifetime ownership costs.

A Strategic Upgrade

TS-C is not simply a replacement for the current TS range; it represents a meaningful technological advancement that builds on familiar operational logic while introducing capabilities that meet the demands of modern industrial environments:

    • Expanded diagnostics
    • Smarter connectivity
    • Long‑term digital support capability

For engineers and service companies, existing knowledge of the TS range transfers to TS-C, while the platform's enhanced capabilities bring faster commissioning, simplified fault-finding, and scalable system management. For specifiers and end users, TS-C delivers the confidence of a future-proofed installation.

 


 

Shaping the Future of Industrial Door Automation

TS-C represents the next generation of control panels; a strategic step forward in control panel design that combines familiar operation with smarter connectivity, enhanced diagnostics, and flexible configuration. Engineered to streamline installation, simplify servicing, and support long-term digital evolution, TS-C empowers engineers, service teams, and specifiers to work more efficiently today while preparing for the demands of tomorrow.
