EBP 1200C • Setup Guide (Continued)
Connecting to the eBUS System
The EBP 1200C has two eBUS ports that support power and communication with an IPCP Pro control processor. Up to eight
eBUS endpoint devices such as EBP button panels can be connected to the control processor and to each other in various
cabling topologies. These can include daisy chain, star, or hybrid system (a combination of both daisy chain and star) topologies
(see the eBUS Technology Reference Guide, available on
have a unique identification address (bus ID) within the system.
Once the bus ID DIP switches are set on the EBPs, use Extron Global Configurator
Global Scripter
programming, to configure the control processor. Once configured, the EBPs can control the AV system.

NOTE:
Use Global Configurator Plus and Professional to configure the EBP buttons and LEDs. Alternatively, use Global
Scripter to program the buttons and LEDs.
A
Cable Cubby lid — Tilts back to 130°. Friction washers
ensure the lid holds any angle set by the user.
A switch in the hinge activates the buttons when the lid
is fully open and deactivates them when the lid is closed
to prevent accidental button presses.
B
Power buttons — Are labelled
the power to the display device. The
nub that can be felt with the finger tips.
C
Volume LED meter — Shows the volume level.
D
Volume buttons — Can be used to increment or
decrement audio volume. There is also a

E
Button panel removal slots — Use the Extron removal
tool in these slots to release the top of the panel when
replacing buttons.
F
Input and function buttons — If these buttons are
used to select an input, they can be configured as a
group to act in a mutually exclusive manner. However,
the buttons can also be configured to carry out separate
functions. In that case, they can be removed from the
input group and configured independently.
G
Transmit LED — Blinks once when any button is
pressed.
H
Button panel hinge — Holds the bottom of the panel in
place, allowing the panel to tilt forward when replacing
buttons.

A
DIP switches — Used to provide each unit connected to the same
control processor with a unique bus ID (see
Address
on page 10).
B
eBUS connectors (2 blocks) — These four-pole captive screw
blocks connect the EBP 1200C to a controller and to other panels.
C
Status LEDs — These three LEDs are mutually exclusive (only one
LED lights at a time). When the unit is not receiving power, all three
LEDs are off.
Link — lights green when power and communication with the control processor are both good.
Com Error — lights amber when there is no communication with the control processor.
ID Error — lights red when there is a bus ID conflict.
D
Reset button — Resets the firmware to the factory installed version.
Disconnect the eBUS cable that is providing power.
