1 Product Category ebus Button Panel EU and K Series Setup Guide IPORTNT: Go to for the complete user guide and installation instructions before connecting the product to the power source. Overview The Extron ebus Button Panel (EBP) 05 EU, EBP 06 EU, EBP 05 K, and EBP 06 K ebus Button Panels are fully customizable V system control interfaces for use with Extron IP Pro Series Control Processors. The EU models (EBP 05 EU and EBP 06 EU) fit any standard European junction box. The K models (EBP 05 K and EBP 06 K) fit any standard K junction box. NOTE: These products are only for use with Extron U listed IP Pro controller products. Each EBP button panel includes two ebus ports, which support power and communications between the IP 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 ebus Technology Reference Guide, available on 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 V system can be controlled from any of its EBPs. This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced installer to install the EBP EU or K series button panels. For more details on the EBPs, see the ebus Technology Reference Guide, available on For details on configuration, see the software help files.

D Reset Button on rare occasions, updating the firmware to a EBP causes a conflict in the system.. Disconnect the ebus cable that is providing power.. Press and hold down the Reset button while reconnecting power. During the reset process, the front panel buttons are not lit and the ebus Connection Status ED is lit. fter about 30 seconds, the front panel buttons are lit dimly and the unit firmware is restored to the original factory installed version. For information about updating the unit firmware, see the ebus Technology Reference Guide. 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 ebus Technology Reference Guide for more information about ebus topologies. Installation Step : 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 IP Pro and control the connected V products. See the IP Pro Series User Guide (available at for details on software and drivers. Obtain network information (IP addresses, passwords, DHCP settings, and the like) and the C address for the control processor. Obtain model names, drivers, and setup information for V devices. Determine which ebus cabling topologies to use and obtain cables, mounting hardware, and any power supplies or hubs required by that configuration.

PTOP UTE Figure 5. Replacing Buttons Step 4: Set the ebus ID ddresses Up to eight units can be connected to one control processor. Each unit connected to the same control processor must have a unique six-bit, binary ebus ID (address), which is set with the DIP switch assembly on the rear panel of the EBP (figure 6, ). If other modules have the same bus ID, address conflicts may cause one or more of the panels to not be recognized by the IP Pro control processor. Set the bus identification DIP switches for each EBP button panel in the system using the diagrams in this section as a guide. By factory default, the EBP 05 EU and EBP 05 K are set to address three (binary: 0000). The EBP 06 EU and EBP 06 K are set to address four (binary: 00000). ny address can be used except address 0 (binary: ), which is reserved (as the address of the controller) and may not be used. Switch (on the left) is the highest value (3, the most significant bit) and is labelled. Switch 6 (on the right) is the lowest value (, the least significant bit) and is labelled.
