About the SCP 250
The Extron SCP 250 is a hard wired remote control panel for
use with Extron system switchers. Refer to the appropriate
switcher’s user ’s manual for information on installing,
operating, and setting up the switcher.
N
The SCP 250 replicates the front panel controls of the
System 7SC switcher (display controls, input selection buttons,
and room function buttons), and it can also be used with the
System 5cr Plus. It accepts signals from the switcher's remote
control, and includes an audio volume control. The SCP 250 can
be mounted in or on a wall or furniture in a 3-gang junction box
(for an installation that meets UL safety standards) or mud ring.

Installation Overview
To install and set up an SCP control panel, follow these steps:
Turn the equipment off. Make sure that the SCP and the
system switcher are disconnected from the power source.
Run cables through the wall or furniture where the SCP
will be installed.
Prepare the site and install and ground the electrical box
(if one will be used) or mounting bracket/mud ring.
Set the identication DIP switches on the circuit board.
Wire the 5-pole captive screw connectors on both ends of
the cable that was installed in the wall or furniture in step 2.
Plug the wired connectors into the receptacles on the back
of the SCP and on the rear panel of the system switcher.
Restore power to the system switcher.
Press an input selection button. If the corresponding
LED does not light or the switch to the selected input is
not made, disconnect power from the switcher and verify
correct connector wiring at both ends of the cable.
Mount the SCP in the wall box or furniture, and make sure
the faceplate is tied to an earth ground to prevent damage
caused by electrostatic discharge.
Reconnect the switcher to the A/C power source.
Preparing the Site, Installing the Electrical Box
A mud ring is included with each SCP 250. However, for an
installation that meets UL safety requirements, you must use a
UL Listed junction box instead of a mud ring/mounting bracket.
The box must be at least 1.5" (3.8 cm) to contain both the SCP’s
electrical components and the cables.
The electrical box can be attached to wall studs or to furniture,
or the SCP can be mounted in areas of walls or furniture
without studs if using an Extron 3-gang mounting bracket, part
#70-519-32. Bracket installation instructions are included with
the brackets.
Use the template provided in appendix A as a guide to mark
and cut the hole in the wall or furniture in which the SCP will
be installed. The template includes the recommended 0.1"
(0.25 cm) clearance on all sides of the electrical wall box to allow
room for the raised areas surrounding the knockouts.

To attach the wall box to wood, use four #8 to #10 wood or
sheet metal screws. A minimum of 1/2" (1.3 cm) of screw
threads must penetrate the wood. If the wood is a 2 x 4,
such as a wall stud, 10-penny or larger nails can be used.
To attach the electrical wall box to metal, use four #8 or
#10 sheet metal screws (self-tapping) or #8 or #10 machine
bolts with matching nuts.
If mounting brackets will be used instead of a wall box,
follow the mounting instructions that came with the
brackets.
5. Feed cables through the wall box’s punch-out holes, and
secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.

chain setup.
A daisy chain of SCPs connected to a System 7SC
The maximum distance away from the switcher that the
last SCP (or other device) in the daisy chain can be placed
is 300 feet (91.4 meters).
Each port of the System 7SC switcher provides up to
12 VDC for powering the SCP control panels or other
devices. However, the total load for both ports combined
N

must not exceed 1 ampere. Each SCP uses 12 VDC at
0.06 ampere (60 mA).
6. Another device such as an interface or distribution
amplier can receive power from the system switcher via
an SCP, as long as the following limits for the total load
attached to each switcher are not exceeded:
• System 7SC — 12 VDC, 1 A
• System 5cr Plus — 12 VDC, 0.5 A (500 mA)
(each port provides 250 mA)

to the input selection buttons on the front of the switcher. See
page A-7 in this manual for an example of how the SCP 250’s
input selections buttons are assigned depending on the model of
switcher the SCP is connected to.
Switcher configuration must be done using the front panel
controls or RS-232 control. Configuration cannot be done
from the IR 401 or IR 701.
Testing/Troubleshooting
Before installing the control panel into the wall or furniture, test
the system to make sure that the connections are correct and the
SCP is working correctly.
1. Connect the cables between the switcher and the SCP(s).
2. Power on the switcher.
3. Press the input selection buttons on the SCP, and watch the
LEDs on the switcher to see if the system switches to the
desired input(s).
N
The connections between the SCP and the system switcher
can be tested even if input/output devices are not available.
• If the SCP’s input selection LED does not light, check
the captive screw connector wiring at both the switcher
and the SCP. If the conductor assignments are not
the same at both ends, the SCP will not turn on, and
circuits may be damaged if power is applied to the
wrong pole. Verify that the connectors are wired

identically at both ends of the cable and that the
faceplate is connected to an earth ground via the wall
box or directly.
• If power is present at the SCP, but the switcher does not
respond to the SCP’s controls, make sure the SCP’s DIP
switch settings are correct.
4. Call the Extron S3 Sales and Technical Support Hotline if
there is still no switcher response to changes made at the SCP.
Mounting the SCP to the Electrical Box
Once the system has been cabled and tested, the control panel
can be installed in the wall or furniture.
1. With power removed, insert the SCP into the wall or
furniture.
2. Mount it to the wall box (or mounting brackets) with the
provided machine screws (as shown in the
illustration below), or attach it directly
to the furniture with wood or
metal screws.

N
The SCP is shipped with a mounting bracket (mudring).
However, for an installation that meets UL standards for
safety, the SCP should be installed in a UL Listed electrical
junction box, which must be purchased separately.
3. Restore power to the devices.
You have completed the installation.

Labeling Buttons on the SCP
The SCP 250 has translucent panels (“windows”) behind which
customized labels can be inserted. To remove a panel,
1. Insert the head of a small Phillips screwdriver into the hole
in one end of the panel.
2. Gently slide the tab on the edge of the panel out of the
recess in the SCP’s faceplate.
Premade templates and blank templates for the SCPs’ label
windows are printed in this chapter. However, you can easily
create, customize, and print labels by using the Button-Label
Generator software or any Brother P-Touch® labeller.
Button-Label Generator software
The Extron Button-Label Generator program (Buttons.exe) is
shipped with the System 7SC, and it is also available on the
Extron Web site. This program is used to create and print labels
that can be placed in slots above/below buttons on the SCPs.
The program occupies approximately 0.5 MB of disk space. It
can be run on a diskette from a oppy drive, but it is more
convenient to load and run the program from a hard drive.
Installing the software
This program is installed at the same time and from the same
disk as the System 7SC control program. See the
User’s Manual for details. The Button-Label Generator program
can be installed separately via the Download page of the Extron
Web site (http://www.extron.com). Follow the on-screen
directions if you install the program from the Web site.
By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\BUTTONS
directory, and it places an icon (Button-Label Generator) into a
group or folder named “Extron Electronics”.

. To run the Button-Label Generator program, double-click
on the Button-Label Generator icon (shown at
left) in the Extron Electronics group or folder,
and click OK when prompted.
2. Under System selection, choose the SCP 250. The button
label editing area changes to reect the number and
arrangement of buttons on the device.
3. Using normal Windows controls, you can create and print
labels for the front panels of the SCPs.
4. Cut the label strips to the appropriate length, and install
them in the SCP’s windows.

For information about using the program, you can access a
help le by clicking on the Help menu on the main screen and
choosing Use Help.
The picture below shows how the Button-Label Generator
screen looks when set for the SCP 250.
SCP 250 button label screen
Each input, display, and room control can be labeled with
names, alphanumeric characters, or bitmapped pictures. Each
button’s label can contain from 1 to 3 lines of text (or none).
Each line provides a choice of font sizes and text placement.
Pictures can be selected either from the Device Palette or a
user-supplied graphic le. User-supplied graphics should be
icon (.ICO) or bitmap (.BMP) les. Files called TEST.BMP and
DEMO_BTN.DAT are installed with this program as examples.
Label templates
On the following page is a full-sized template for the labels.
Feel free to photocopy it, write button information in each area
of the blank template as desired, cut the strips out, and insert the
strips in the label window.
