EBP 108 RAAP Button Panel • Setup Guide
The Extron eBUS® 108 RAAP Button Panel (EBP) is a fully-customizable AV system control interface with eight buttons and a rotary encoder and eight-segment LED level indicator. It is designed for use with Extron eBUS-enabled Pro control systems. The 1U, 19 inches wide metal frame can be mounted in any standard equipment rack and the mounting plate has openings for up to four single-space or two double-space AAP™ Architectural Adapter Plates.
NOTE: These products are for use only with Extron UL Listed IPCP Pro control processors.
The EBP 108 RAAP has four eBUS ports that support power and communications between the IPCPPro control processor and eBUS devices, and also accommodate system expansion. Up to eight eBUS endpoint devices such as EBP button panels and ECM control modules 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 a combination of both topologies (see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide, available at www.extron.com, for basic diagrams). Every endpoint device must have a unique identication address (bus ID) within the system.
Setup involves setting bus ID DIP switches on the EBPs, then using Extron GlobalCongurator® Plus and Professional (GCP) conguration software, the Toolbelt utility software, or Global Scripter® programming software to congure the control processor. Once congured, the panels can be used for AV system control.
This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced installer to install any of these panels. For more details on the EBPs, see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide. For details on conguration, see the software help les.

same control processor must have a unique BUS ID, which is set using DIP switches (see Step 4: Set BUS ID Addresses on page 4).
Status LEDs — The EBP 108 RAAP has yellow, red, and green LEDs that provide diagnostic information about the
D
connection, communication, and power status of the panels. For more information about how the LEDs are used for troubleshooting, see Step 7: Test and Troubleshoot on page 9.
eBUS Distribution Hub (4 ports) — The four-pole captive screw connectors use the Extron eBUS protocol to connect the
E
panel to a controller and to other panels (see Step 5: Cable All Devices on page 7).

To reset the firmware
1. Disconnect the eBUS cable that is providing power.
2. Press and hold down the Reset button and, while holding down the Reset button, reconnect eBUS cable.
3. Release the Reset button 1 second after reconnecting power. During the reset process, the front panel buttons are not lit.
When the eBUS Connection Status LED lights, the reset process is complete.
NOTES:
If the reset is carried out while the EBP is receiving power from a 12 VDC power supply, the rmware is reset to the
factory default.
If the reset is carried out while the EBP is receiving power from a control processor, the rmware is reset to the factory
default but the control processor may then push a more recent version of the rmware to the EBP.

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 1: Get Ready

Use the following checklist to prepare for the installation.
 Download and install the latest version of the software, rmware, and device drivers needed to congure the IPCPPro control
processor and control the connected AV products. See the IPCPPro Series User Guide (available at www.extron.com) for details on software and drivers.
 Obtain network information (IP addresses, passwords, DHCP settings, and so on) 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 conguration (see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide for more information about eBUS topologies).

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 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 qualié
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.
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
http://www.ada.gov/regs2010/2010ADAStandards/2010ADAStandards.pdf.
Step 3: Change Button Labels or Knob
You can replace button labels or the volume control knob. Some button labels ship with the unit. You can create and print your own customized labels using Extron Button Label Generator software.
Changing the button labels
1. Remove the four Phillips-head screws holding the
faceplate to the unit (see figure 2, D, on the previous page) and remove the faceplate.
2. Gently separate the button lens cap from its white diffuser,
insert the end of the provided Extron removal tool into the corner notch, and gently twist the tool (see gure 3, 1).
3. Remove the label insert from the button cap.
TIP: If the insert does not come out easily, use a piece
of sticky tape to pull it out of 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 lm from the other side of the label.
5. Insert the button label into the button cap (
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 by aligning the openings
of the faceplate with the buttons, the knob, and the LEDs and place the faceplate against the unit.
8. Secure the faceplate to the unit using the four
Phillips-head screws removed in step 1.
