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 Installation
When 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.
Installation
Step 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 1in 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 2at
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.

Step 4: Set Bus ID Addresses
Set the bus identification DIP switches for each EBP button panel in the system using the diagrams in this section as a guide. Each
eBUS endpoint device, such as an EBP, must have a unique bus ID (address). If other modules have the same bus ID, address
conflicts may cause one or more of the panels to not be recognized by the IPCPPro control processor.

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 Devices
1. 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 Troubleshoot
1. 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 [phone]).

Step 8: Mount the EBPs
Prior 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 1in 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.
