eBUS® Button Panel Decorator-Style Series • Setup Guide
Overview
Extron offers a range of eBUS Button Panels (EBPs)in the decorator-style form factor that can be mounted in walls or furniture
in any standard US 1-gang opening. 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 control processors.
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 (a combination of both) system
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 decorator-style 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.

To reset the firmware
The Reset button (see gure 2, A) for the EBP 103 D can only be accessed from the front of
the unit, after removing the frame (see Remove the frame and bezel on page 4).
For all models:
1. Disconnect the eBUS cable that is providing power.
2. While reconnecting power, press and hold down the Reset button (see gure 1,
gure 2, A).
3. Release the Reset button 1 second after reconnecting power. During the reset process,
the front panel buttons are not lit. When the eBUS Status LED lights, the reset process
is complete, and the EBP is functioning normally. For the EBP 103 D, the green Link
LED lights to show that the EBP is functioning normally.

EBP Front Panel Features
All buttons are backlit with LEDs to identify the active button. Inactive buttons can be backlit
dimly to help identify them in low ambient lighting.
The buttons and encoders must be congured or programmed to carry out their functions. Use
Global Congurator Plus and Professional and Toolbelt to congure the EBP buttons and LEDs
or use Global Scripter to program the EBP buttons and LEDs.

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 versions of the software, rmware, and device drivers needed to congure or program the
IPCPPro to control the connected AV products. See the IPCPPro Series User Guide (available at www.extron.com) 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 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.
• 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 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.
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
All of the EBP decorator-style series models, except the EBP 111 D, t any standard 1-gang US wall opening. The EBP 111 D ts
any standard 2-gang US wall opening. All devices ship with a mud ring of the correct size. In addition, Extron offers an assortment
of optional ULListed in-wall junction boxes, external wall boxes (EWBs), and surface or tabletop mounting boxes that can be
used with the eBUS button panels (see www.extron.com).
Step 3: Change the Buttons (Optional)
You can replace any combination of faceplate, buttons, or rotary encoder, depending on the model. 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 D only) (see Remove the rotary encoder knob on the next page).
2. Remove the wallplate (all models) (see To reset the firmware on the previous page).
3. Replace the buttons (all models except the EBP 103 D) (see Replace buttons for panels except the EBP 103 D on the next
page).
4. Replace the button labels (EBP 103 D) (see Replace button labels for the EBP 103 D on page 5).

Remove the rotary encoder knob
(EBP VC1 only)
The EBP VC1 D has a rotary encoder knob. Before replacing
buttons, remove the encoder, as shown here.
1. Turn the rotary encoder knob (gure 4,
hex screw holding the knob in place (2).
2. Insert the provided 0.05 inch Allen wrench and turn the
wrench in the direction shown (3) to loosen the screw.
3. Pull the knob straight out to remove it.
Once the encoder knob is removed, the frame and bezel can be
removed and the buttons replaced as described in the following
sections.
NOTE: To replace the knob, align the ridge on the inside
of the knob with the groove in the metal knob assembly
underneath. Press the knob straight down so that the
magnet in the knob secures it to the unit.

1. To remove the frame, remove the two screws holding the frame
to the module (gure 5, 1).
2. To separate the bezel from the module, insert a small at-
bladed screw driver into the notch at the top of the bezel.
Release the catch holding the bezel to the module (2).
3. Repeat step 2 to release the catch at the bottom of the bezel.
4. Tilt the top of the bezel forward as you remove it to prevent the
buttons falling out.

Replace buttons for panels except the EBP 103 D
This section applies to all EBP decorator models except the
EBP 103 D (see Replace button labels for the EBP 103 D on the
next page).
1. From the front of the bezel, press the button or button pair to

membrane containing the button is free.
2. If required, remove all the buttons and replace the bezel.
3. On the back of the bezel, insert the replacement button or button
pair into the appropriate slots. Ensure the text is in the correct
orientation. Align the two pegs in the button membrane (see
gure 6, 1) with the holes located at opposite corners of the
empty space in the faceplate.
4. Press the two buttons into the faceplate until the pegs on the
membrane are seated in the corresponding holes (2).
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for any other buttons that you want to
replace.
6. Snap the bezel into place on the module.
7. Reattach the frame, using the two screws removed in
step 1 of Remove the frame and bezel, above.
8. EBP VC1 D only: Replace the rotary encoder knob
by reversing the procedure that was described
above in Remove the rotary encoder knob.
