EBP 100 and EBP 200 • Setup Guide

The Extron EBP 100 and EBP 200 eBUS® Button Panels are fully customizable AV system control interfaces for use with Extron IPCP Pro Series Control Processors.

Each EBP button panel includes two eBUS ports, which support both power and communications between the IPCP Pro control processor and eBUS devices. Up to eight eBUS endpoint devices such as EBP button panels can be connected to the control processor and to each other in various cabling topologies. Cabling topology refers to the physical layout of cabling interconnections between devices in a network such as an eBUS system. eBUS systems can include daisy chain, star, or hybrid system (a combination of both types) topologies (see the EBP 100 and EBP 200 User Guide for basic diagrams). Every endpoint device must have a unique identification address (bus ID) within the system.

Setup involves setting bus ID DIP switches on the EBPs, then using Extron Global Configurator® (GC) Plus and Professional software, or Global Scripter programming, to configure the control processor. Once configured, the AV system can be controlled from any of its EBPs.

This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced installer to install an EBP 100 or EBP 200 button panel. For more details on the EBPs, see the EBP 100 and EBP 200 User Guide, available on www.extron.com. For details on configuration, see the software help files.

Planning the System and InstallationWhen planning to install an eBUS system you must consider how many EBP button panels to use, maximum cable distance, cabling topology, and mounting. See the EBP 100 and EBP 200 User Guide for more information about eBUS topologies.

InstallationStep 1: Get Ready

Use the following check list to prepare for the installation.

� Download and install the latest version of the software, firmware, and device drivers needed to configure the IPCP Pro and control the connected AV products. See the IPCP Pro Series User Guide (available on the Extron website) for details on software and drivers.

� Obtain network information (IP addresses, passwords, DHCP settings, and the like) and the MAC address for the control processor.

� Obtain model names, drivers, and setup information for AV devices.

� Determine which eBUS cabling topologies to use and obtain cables, mounting hardware, and any power supplies or hubs required by that configuration.

Step 2: Prepare the Installation Site

ATTENTION:

• Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.• L’installation et l’entretien doivent être effectués par le personnel autorisé uniquement.

• Extron recommends installing the EBP into a grounded, UL Listed electrical junction box.• Extron recommande d’installer le EBP dans un boîtier d’encastrement électrique mis à la terre, listé UL.

• If the EBP will be installed into fine furniture, it is best to hire a licenced, bonded craftsperson to cut the access hole and perform the physical installation so the surface will not be damaged.

• S’il est prévu d’installer le EBP dans du beau mobilier, il est préférable de faire appel à un artisan autorisé et qualifié pour couper le trou d’accès et réaliser l’installation de telle façon que la surface ne soit pas endommagée.

• Follow all national and local building and electrical codes that apply to the installation site.• Respectez tous les codes électriques et du bâtiment, nationaux et locaux, qui s’appliquent au site de l’installation.

NOTE: For the installation to meet UL requirements and to comply with National Electrical Code (NEC), the EBP must be installed in a UL Listed junction box. The end user or installer must furnish the junction box. It is not included with the EBP 100 or EBP 200.

NOTE: For rear panel features, all models are identical.

Extron offers an assortment of mud rings, optional UL Listed in-wall junction boxes, external wall boxes (EWBs), and surface or tabletop mounting boxes for use with the eBUS button panels.

Step 3: Change a Faceplate, Button Labels, or Knob

You can replace a faceplate or one or more of the labels within the buttons. Some button labels ship with the unit. You can create and print your own customized labels using Extron Button Label Generator software.

To change a faceplate or translucent button label:

1. Remove the faceplate by holding the body of the unit with one hand, gripping the sides of the faceplate with the other hand, and pulling the faceplate away from the unit.

2. Gently separate the button lens button cap from its white diffuser: insert the end of the provided Extron removal (pry) tool into the corner notch and gently twist the tool (see 1 in the image at right).

3. Remove the label insert from the button cap.

4. Select one of the button labels from the printed label sheets included with the unit. Remove the label from its backing and remove the clear, protective film from the front of the label.

5. Insert the button label into the button cap (see 2 at right).

6. Align the cap with the white diffuser and the panel opening, and press the clear cap into place on the button.

7. Attach the faceplate to the EBP: align the openings of the faceplate with the buttons and knob and with the LEDs and place the faceplate against the unit. The magnetic catches fasten the faceplate onto the unit.

To change a knob:

1. Remove the faceplate as described in step 1 above.

2. Firmly grasp the knob and pull it away from the EBP.

3. Align the ridge inside the new knob with the channel on the knob control and allow the magnet in the knob to snap into place.

4. Reattach the faceplate to the unit as described in step 7 above.

eBUS Ports• Connect up to eight (8) eBUS endpoint devices per IPCP Pro

control processor.• Wire the connectors the same at both ends.• These ports are identical. You can connect devices

interchangeablly to either port.• Do not exceed a total of 1000 feet (305 meters) of cable for

connections between the IPCP Pro and all of the EBP panels.

• Power is provided by the IPCP Pro, a PS 1220EB power inserter, or an Extron 12 VDC power supply.

Bus ID Address DIP Switches• Use these DIP switches to set the six-bit, binary

eBUS bus address for the EBP.

• Each EBP connected to the same IPCP Pro control processor must have a unique address.

• Switch 1 (on the left) is the highest value (32, the the most signi�cant bit [labeled “MSB”]).

• Switch 6 (on the right) is the lowest (1, the least signi�cant bit [labeled “LSB”]).

• Up = on = 1, Down = off = 0

Figure 3. Rear Panel Features Including DIP Switch Location and Settings

Each EBP in a system must have a different (unique) bus ID address (a six-bit binary number), which you set by using the DIP switch assembly on the rear panel of each EBP.

Switch 1 on the left sets the most significant bit (highest number, 32). Switch 6 sets the least significant bit (the lowest number, 1). See the example addresses in the table at right.

NOTES: • By factory default, each EBP 100 is set to address three (binary:

000011) and each EBP 200 is set to address four (binary: 000100).

• Any address can be used except address 0 (binary: 000000), which is reserved (as the address of the controller) and may not be used.

Step 5: Cable All Devices1. Cable AV and other devices to the control processor.2. Connect EBPs to each other (if applicable) and to the IPCP Pro (see

Cabling on page 5 for wiring, see figure 3 on this page for the location of the connectors) in the desired topology (daisy chain, star, or combination [see the EBP 100 and EBP 200 User Guide for topology examples]).

NOTES: • Wire both ends of each eBUS cable the same. Connectors are

interchangeable: you can connect either port to the control processor or to any eBUS endpoint device (EBP).

• Do NOT power an EBP from more than one power source.

3. Connect power cords and power on all the devices.

Step 6: Configure the System

NOTES: • System configuration requires an IP network connection to the IPCP Pro. See the IPCP Pro Series User Guide for

information about the control processors and their ports.

• EBP bus ID DIP switches should be set prior to uploading the configuration to the IPCP Pro.

• See the Global Configurator Help file as needed for step-by-step instructions and detailed information. The help file for GC includes an introduction to the software, and how to start a project and configuration.

1. Create a new Global Configurator Plus or Professional project and configure the controller and any eBUS devices. The configuration tells the controller how its ports function; how to control other products; what to monitor; when to do things; and whom to notify, how, and under what circumstances.

a. Configure ports on the control processor.

• Select device drivers and link them to each assigned port.

• Configure settings (serial protocol, relay behavior, digital input, volume control settings) as needed.

b. Set up monitors, schedules, macros, and local variables.

c. Set up the eBUS button panel buttons: assign appropriate commands and actions, macros, timers, local variables monitors, or feedback to the buttons.

2. Save the project.

3. Build and upload the system configuration to the control processor.

Step 7: Test and Troubleshoot1. Verify that the DIP switches on the EBPs are set to the desired address on each unit and that there are no DIP switch address

conflicts in the system. As mentioned in the rear panel features diagram in Step 4: Set Bus ID Addresses on page 4, the eBUS LED lights steadily (solid) when power and communication are present and there are no bus ID address conflicts.

2. Verify that cables to and from the EBPs are wired the same at each end (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and so forth).

3. Test the system.

• Press buttons on the EBPs and ensure the buttons light as desired and that the appropriate control commands or functions are triggered.

• Ensure that the audio output responds correctly to the volume knob or button. Also ensure that the volume LEDs light correctly as you increase or decrease the audio gain.

4. Make adjustments to wiring, bus ID address, or system configuration as needed. Remember that the rear panel ports and DIP switches will not be accessible after the EBP is mounted. If needed, upload a revised configuration to the control processor.

If you have questions during installation and setup, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline or the Extron S3 Control Systems Support Hotline (1.800.633.9877).

Step 8: Mount the EBPsPrior to mounting:

1. If it has not already been done, feed all device cables through the wall or furniture and, if applicable, through the plastic spacer.

NOTE: If the unit is not installed in a mud ring, you must install the plastic spacer. The spacer positions the unit to allow the magnetic faceplate to attach properly and securely.

2. Ensure that cables are connected to the EBP rear panel.

Mount the EBP as follows:

1. Insert the cabled EBP into the mud ring or junction box within the wall or furniture, aligning the mounting holes in the EBP with those in box or mud ring.

2. Secure the EBP to the junction box, wall or surface mounting box, or mud ring as follows (see 1 in figures 7 and 8):

a. Insert the included screws through the oval slots at the top and bottom of the EBP, through the plastic spacer (if not using a mud ring), and into the corresponding threaded holes in the box or mud ring.

b. Using a Phillips screwdriver, lightly tighten the screws until snug.
