Introduction

This section covers the following basic information you should know about this guide and
the product before installation:

• Before You Begin

• About the Network Button Panels

• Application Diagrams

• PC System Requirements

Before You Begin

What This Guide Covers

This user guide provides instructions for an experienced installer to install an Extron Network
Button Panel (NBP). This guide includes detailed information and recommends best
practices for cabling the NBP. It provides a brief overview of the configuration process, and
reference information.

Configure the IP-related settings of the NBP using Toolbelt software. Then you can
configure the control processor and overall system using Extron Global Configurator
Professional (GCProfessional) or Global Configurator Plus (GC Plus), or program them using
GlobalScripter. The system configuration includes button configurations for the NBPs.

This guide does not contain instructions on detailed software-related setup steps or details
of configuration within the software. Those are covered in the help files for each software
package or scripting program. The software help files describe how to use each program to
download drivers, add AV devices to a configuration, configure basic functions, and set up
schedules, macros, e-mail alerts, button configurations, and the like.

Conventions Used in This Guide

• Throughout this guide a Network Button Panel is also referred to as an “NBP” or “button

panel.”

• Global Configurator software is referred to as “GC,” which can be run as Global

Configurator Professional or Global Configurator Plus.

• The GlobalViewer Enterprise application is sometimes referred to as “GVE.”

About the Network Button Panels

The NBP Network Button Panels allow users to remotely control AV equipment in
conjunction with an Extron IPCPPro or IPLPro control processor or HCR102 receiver (part
of an HC400 Series system). This equipment includes, but is not limited to, display devices,
switchers, source devices, and various other items such as lights, a projector lift, or a screen
motor.

See the help files for the configuration and programming software to determine how many
NBPs can be included in a system.

as part of the system configuration you create within a Global Configurator project or
GlobalScripter programming. The project configuration is saved, built, and uploaded into
the IPCPPro or IPLPro control processor or the HCR102 receiver.

Decorator-style Models

The NBP 105 D, NBP 106 D, NBP 108 D, and NBP 110 D feature soft backlit buttons,
fit into a standard US one-gang junction box or mud ring, and include a decorator-style
wallplate.

General features

• Configurable buttons — The system configuration sets button illumination (levels and

whether each button is lit steadily or blinking) and functions (commands, macros, and
so forth).

• A variety of mounting options — The NBP can be mounted in furniture or a wall, in

a lectern, or in a surface mount box, depending on the model.

• Power over Ethernet (PoE) — The NBPs support power over Ethernet, providing the

unit with both power and an Ethernet signal over a single connector.

Network and configuration features

• Global compatibility — The NBPs use industry standard Ethernet communication

protocols, including DHCP, DNS, HTTP, HTTPS, ICMP, NTP, SFTP, SMTP, SNMP, SSH,
TCP/IP, and UDP/IP.

• Network connection — The NBPs support 10Base-T up to 100Base-T Ethernet

communication.
