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.

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.

Replacing the volume control knob
1. To remove a knob, rmly grasp the knob and pull it away
from the EBP. There is no need to remove the faceplate.
2. To replace the knob, align the ridge inside the new knob
(gure 4, 1) with the channel on the knob control (2) and allow the magnet in the knob to snap into place.

Step 4: Set BUS ID Addresses

Up to eight devices can be connected to one control processor. In order for the control processor to be successfully congured, each device connected to the same control processor must have a unique six-bit, BUS ID, which is set with the DIP switch assembly on the rear panel of the EBP (see figure 1, C, on page 1). If two or more modules have the same bus ID, address conicts may cause one or more of the panels to not be recognized by the IPCPPro control processor. If there is an address conict, the red status LED (figure 1, D) lights steadily (see also Step 7: Test and Troubleshoot, step 2 on page 9).
Various combinations of the six DIP switches set to On or Off provide 64 addresses: 0 is a reserved eBUS ID and the congurable eBUS ID range is 1 through 63 (see the table on the two following pages). The section below shows an example of binary to decimal conversion.

Add the decimal numbers for each of the DIP switches that are set to On to obtain the address of the device. In gure 5, only DIP switch #5 is on and the rest are off, which means the address for the device in gure 5 is 0+0+0+0+2+0=2.
NOTES:
Any address can be used except address 0 (binary: 000000), which is reserved as the address of the controller.
Switch 1 (on the left) is the highest value (32, the most signicant bit) and is labelled MSB.
Switch 6 (on the right) is the lowest value (1, the least signicant bit) and is labelled LSB.
Up = On = 1, Down = Off = 0
The factory default address for the EBP 108 RAAP is 25 (BUS ID = 011001). The ID can be changed to any valid value.

Step 5: Cable All Devices

Attach cables using the diagrams in this section as a guide. Connect a 4-pole captive screw connector to each end of the cable, wiring both ends as shown in gure 6. In most cases the EBPs are powered by the IPCPPro control processor that provides the eBUS signal. Power is carried on the V+ pin of each eBUS connection.
The four connectors are:
+V — carries 12 VDC power from the controller, active hub, or power supply
+S — carries the positive data signal
-S — carries the negative data signal
G — ground
Extron STP20-2/1000 or STP20-2P/1000 cable is recommended for eBUS connections.

NOTES:
The four eBUS ports are interchangeable: any port can be used to connect the device to a controller or EBDB
distribution hub and any port can be used to daisy-chain the device to another EBP.
Connect up to eight eBUS devices for each IPCP Pro control processor.
Wire the connectors in the same way at both ends.
Do not exceed a total of 1000 feet (305 meters) of cable for connections between the IPCP Pro and all the EBP panels.
Do NOT power an EBP from more than one power source. Power is provided by the IPCP Pro. If additional power is
required, use a PS 1220EB power supply and distribution hub, or an Extron 12 VDC power supply. If more than one power source is used in a system, disconnect the +V pin appropriately to ensure that the devices powered by the rst source are isolated from the devices powered by the second source by (see figure 7 on the following page).

Step 6: Configure or Program the System
EBPs are shipped with pre-labelled buttons in place but these buttons do not have any functions associated with them until they are congured with Global Congurator or programmed with Global Scripter. See the Global Configurator Help File or the Global Scripter Help File for step-by-step instructions and detailed information.

Step 7: Test and Troubleshoot

1. Verify that the DIP switches on the EBPs are set to the desired address on each device and that there are no BUS ID conicts
in the system (see Step 4: Set BUS ID Addresses on page 4).
2. The eBUS status LEDs (see figure 1,
ID address conicts.
The EBP 108 RAAP has three LEDs:
Off — If all three LEDs are off, the device is not receiving power.
Yellow LED— Lights steadily when the device is receiving power but communication with the control processor is not
conrmed.
Red LED— Lights steadily when there is a BUS ID address conict.
Green LED — Lights steadily when power and communication are both conrmed.
3. Verify that cables to and from the EBPs are wired in the same way at each end (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and so forth).
4. Test the system.
Press buttons on the EBPs and ensure that 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.
5. Make adjustments to wiring, BUS ID address, or system conguration as needed. Remember that the rear panel ports and
DIP switches are not accessible after the EBP is mounted. If needed, upload a revised conguration to the control processor.
If you have questions during installation and setup, contact the ExtronS3 Sales & Technical Support or the ExtronS3 Control Systems Support Hotline (1.800.633.9877).

Step 8: Mount the EBPs

EBP panels can be installed directly into a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
1. Decide where the EBP 108 RAAP will be mounted.
2. (Optional.) Install AAPs as required. If you do not install AAPs, you can install blank plates to cover the holes.
3. Use the four provided rack-mounting screws to secure the button panel to any standard equipment rack or control console.
Follow the instructions in the Underwriters Laboratories Guidelines for Rack Mounting (see below) to ensure the rack is mounted safely.
Figure 9. Mounting the EBP 108 RAAP in a rack
NOTE: You can mount up to four single-space or two double-space AAPs of your choice (see www.extron.com for available
models). If you do not ll all the spaces, you can install blank plates to cover the holes.
4. Disconnect power from all devices at the source and run the cables to the EBP and AAP rear panels.
5. Connect the cables to the EBP rear panel (see figure 1 on page 1 and see Step 5: Cable All Devices on page 7).
6. (Optional.) Connect cables to the AAPs. Follow the instructions provided with the AAP.
7. If you have not already done so, set the DIP switches to give the EBP a unique BUS ID (see Step 4: Set BUS ID Addresses
on page 4).
Underwriters Laboratories Guidelines for Rack Mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of the EBP 108 RAAP in a rack:
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +104 °F, +40 °C) specied by Extron.
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate air ow for safe operation.
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous
condition.
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might
have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Give appropriate consideration to the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
For information on safety guidelines, regulatory compliances, EMI/EMF compatibility, accessibility, and related topics, see the
Extron Safety and Regulatory Compliance Guide on the Extron website.
