Extron offers a range of eBUS Button Panels (EBPs)in one-gang EU and MK form factors. They can be mounted into one-gang
EU or MK enclosures and can also be mounted alongside other EU, MK, or Flex55 products in larger enclosures. Each panel is a
fully customizable AV system control interface for use with Extron IPCPPro Series control processors. Individual EBPs are easily
congured and can be connected with other panels to provide control for large and complex AV systems.
NOTE: These products are only for use with Extron UL Listed IPCP Pro controller products.
Each EBP button panel has two eBUS ports that support power and communications between the IPCPPro control processor
and eBUS devices. Up to eight eBUS 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)
topologies (see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide, available on www.extron.com, for basic diagrams). Every device must
have a unique identication address (eBUS ID) within the system.
Setup involves setting eBUS ID DIP switches on the EBPs, then using Extron GlobalCongurator® Plus and Professional
software, the Toolbelt utility, or Global Scripter programming software, to congure the control processor. Once congured, the AV
system can be controlled from any of its EBPs.
This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced installer to install the EBP EU or MK series button panels. For more
details on the EBPs, see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide, available on www.extron.com. For details on conguration or
programming, see the software help les.

Planning the System and Installation
When planning to install an eBUS system, 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 1: Get Ready
Use the following check list to prepare for the installation.
Download and install the latest version of the software, rmware, and device drivers needed to congure or program the
IPCPPro and control the connected AV products. See the IPCPPro Series User Guide (available at www.extron.com)
for details on software and drivers.
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 conguration.
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.
• If the EBP will be installed into ne furniture, it is best to hire a licensed, 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 qualié
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.
Site preparation
The EBPEU panels t any one-gang EU junction boxes, enclosures having 60 mm mounting centers, or Flex55 enclosures. The
EBP MK panels t any standard MK junction box. In addition, Extron offers an assortment of optional in-wall junction boxes,
external wall boxes (EWBs), and surface or tabletop mounting boxes for use with the eBUS button panels (see www.extron.com).
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 (not included with the EBP). The end user or installer must furnish the junction box.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance
When planning where to install these devices, you may need to consider factors affecting accessibility of the button panel such
as height from the oor, distance from obstructions, and how far a user must reach to press the buttons. For guidelines, see
sections 307 (“Protruding Objects”) and 308 (“Reach Ranges”) of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design available at
You can replace a faceplate or one or more of the individual buttons. You can order replacement or custom buttons using the
Custom Button Builder at www.extron.com. To replace the buttons:
1. If required, remove the rotary encoder knob (EBP VC1 EU or EBP VC1 MK only) (see Remove the rotary encoder knob
(VC1 models only) on the next page).
2. Remove the button panel. For most models, see Remove the bezel (except the EBP 104 EU and EBP 104 MK) on the
following page. The procedure is slightly different for the EBP 104 EU and EBP 104 MK (see Remove the bezel on the EBP
104 EU or EBP 104 MK on the following page).
3. Separate the button panel from the control panel. This step uses the same procedure for all models (see Separate the bezel
from the button board (all models) on page 5)
4. Replace the buttons. For all models except the EBP 104 EU or EBP 104 MK, see Replace buttons for all models (except
EBP 104 EU and EBP 104 MK) on page 5. For the EBP 104 EU and EBP 104 MK, see Replace buttons for the
EBP 104 EU and EBP 104 MK on page 5.
