The TLC-4S is our microprocessor controlled tally box designed for theTriCaster 40. Though it is compatible with all current High Def TriCasters. It connects to your TriCaster via USB and to the tally light via Ethernet style cable.
The TLC-4S has six tally output channels and supports Program, Preview and Talent tally. The Talent tally is tied to the program tally but can be globally disabled via software. These channels can be assigned to any TriCaster input; you aren’t limited to just the camera inputs. Now you are free to assign a tally to the DDR, media player or network inputs.
For CCU users the TLC-4S can be interfaced with CCUs that require ‘Dry’ contact closure using an RU-2 relay unit for each CCU.
Another thing that sets the TLC-4S apart from a simple adapter cable is the intercom pass-through so you can run both tally and intercom on a single Cat5 cable run. Connect your intercom base station into the XLR on the TLC-4S then connect your beltpacks to the multi-purpose port on the tally lights with the proper adapter cable..
TLC-4S ships with a 6 foot USB cable .
Main Features
- Compact, rugged ABS construction
- Supports both program and preview tally
- 6 assignable tally outputs
- XLR intercom pass through connection
- Compatible with TL-XD, TL-1 and TL-2 lights plus RU-2 relay units
- Powered via USB – no wall wart

The TLC-8S is our newest microprocessor controlled tally box for the NewTek TriCaster. It is compatible with all current High Def TriCasters including the TriCaster 40. It connects to your TriCaster via USB and to the tally light via Ethernet style cable.
The TLC-8S has eight tally output channels and supports Program, Preview and Talent tally. These channels can be assigned to any TriCaster input; you aren’t limited to just the camera inputs. Now you are free to assign a tally to the DDR, media player or network inputs.
The Talent tally is tied to the program tally but can be globally disabled via software.
There are also two GPI outputs that each can also be assigned to fire with any input. Now control external hardware with your TriCaster.
For CCU users the TLC-8S can be interfaced with CCUs that require ‘Dry’ contact closure using an RU-2 relay unit for each CCU.
Another thing that sets the TLC-8S apart from a simple adapter cable is the intercom pass-through so you can run both tally and intercom on a single Cat5 cable run.

An upgrade is available for the TLC-8d to add all the new functionality. Contact us for details on the upgrade process.

Connect the TLC-8 Controller to CCUs that require a contact closure input for tally.
The RU-2 connects just like one of our tally lights but rather than LEDs has two contact closure outputs (on a 3.5mm jack).
The RU-2 includes a twelve inch RJ-45 cable to connect to the controller and a two and a half foot pigtail with a right angle 3.5mm connector at one end and tinned leads at the other. Simply add a connector that matches your CCU’s tally port.

The TL-2 is our standard tally light it is directly compatible with any of our tally controllers. It sports an ultra bright red LED on the front facing the on-camera talent along with three indicators on the back facing the camera operator.
Use Ethernet stye cable to connect to a TLC-6, TLC-8 or TLC-4 tally controller. The intercom pass-through connector on the controller is connected to an 1/8″ jack on the TL-2 so your intercom beltpack (with the proper adapter) can share the tally cable.
The TL-2 mounts in any standard camera accessory shoe with the included mount. TL-2 also ship with a short Ethernet cable and an RJ45 coupler to simplify rigging a cable with strain relief.
TL-2 versions are available by special order to connect directly to TriCaster Studio, Broadcast (TL-2S) and TC300 (TL-2H) without a controller. See your dealer for details.

Designed for use specifically with the TriCaster XD series our new TLC-8d controller is an adapter box the connects to the TriCaster’s (850, 855, 450, 455 models only) 15 pin tally port and interfaces to our tally lights.
The TriCaster’s tally port supports a ‘program’ tally for the source selected on the program bus of the switcher. The TLC-8d translates this signal to illuminate the red camera operator tally and the ‘talent’ tally on the TL-2 light. The talent tallys can be globally disabled via a jumper in the TLC-8d.
For CCU users the TLC-8d can be interfaced with CCUs that require ‘Dry’ contact closure using an RU-2 relay unit for each CCU.
What sets the TLC-8d apart from a simple adapter cable is the intercom pass through so you can run both tally and intercom on a single Cat5 cable run. Connect your intercom base station into the XLR on the TLC-8d then connect your beltpacks to the multi-purpose port on the tally lights with the proper adapter cable.
The TLC-8d is also upgradeable to full microprocessor functionality like the TLC-8S and provide additional features like preview tally and GPI I/O.
TLC-8d ships with a 6 foot 15 pin tally cable and a 6 foot USB cable (for power).
Main Features
- Compact, rugged ABS construction
- 8 tally outputs
- XLR intercom pass through connection
- Compatible with TL-XD, TL-1 and TL-2 lights plus RU-2 relay units
- Dealer/factory upgradable for additional functionality
- Powered via USB – no wall wart

The Tally Light Controller TLC-6 adds a sophisticated tally system to your Standard Def TriCaster or VT. Compatible with all standard def TriCaster models with 2.0 or higher software and VT[4] and above. The TLC – 6 in conjunction with our TL-2 (or TL-1, TL-XD) tally lights adds status and ‘talent’ tally lights to any camera.
Each of the six output channels gives you four LED outputs – Program (Live), Preview and Effects bus indicators plus an output for a separately controlled tally for the on camera ‘talent’. The Talent tally can be software selected to illuminate when the camera is on the program bus, the preview bus, the effects bus or any combination.
In addition to the LED outputs each channel also includes two contact closure outputs that can be connected to most camera CCUs for program and preview tally.
If you’re not using CCUs (which usually provide intercom connections) you can configure the TLC-6 to pass through intercom signals over the tally cable. The TLC-6 has an XLR connector to connect directly into your intercom system.
The controller also has two GPI outputs. The first provides a contact closure whenever the configured source is selected on the program (Live) bus. The second does the same for the Effects bus. You can use these outputs to trigger any GPI compatible outboard equipment.
The TLC-6 uses inexpensive RJ-45 (Ethernet type) cables to make it easy to build custom length cables with no solder skills required.
