Configuration

The EBS-N100 can be controlled and configured in two ways. The first is using the

Display
Commander application to identify and control the EBS-N100 unit. The second is through an
embedded

HTML Interface page for configuration and control.

Display Commander

Once power has been applied to the unit, double click on the Display Commander icon in the folder
where the application was extracted to from the Zip file. After a couple of seconds, the attached EBS-

N100 device will appear on the left side of the screen (if the test unit’s IP does not appear, it may be
necessary to click on Rescan to search the network for the device).

By selecting the EBS-N100, you may adjust basic controls from the Display Commander, such as
Power On/Off, Check Status, Select Input, Adjust Volume or change Aspect Ratio of the video. The
Display Commander software will allow you to directly access the HTML Control Page for a desired
EBS-N100 or N200 for additional configuration and control settings.

Group Control Function

With more than one EBS-N100 or EBS-N200 units on
the same network, groups can be created to manage
multiple displays simultaneously. By clicking Group
Control, a sub-window will prompt you for a name for
the group (i.e. – Chicago Office Lobby) . Click OK.

The next window will provide a list of available EBS­N100 or EBS-N200 units on the left side of the screen,
and by highlighting and adding or deleting these from
the selected units on the right side of the screen, a
group is created for simultaneous control. Once all the
desired units are added to the group, click OK.
