Familiarize yourself with the features of the IPCP 505.
Install the latest version of the Extron Global Configurator (GC) software (version 3.2 or
higher), the latest driver package, and any additional software such as GUI Configurator,
GlobalViewer Enterprise (GVE) or IR Learner (available from www.extron.com).
Obtain IP setting information from the network administrator for the IPCP.
Obtain model names and setup information for devices that the IPCP will control.
Mount the unit to a rack or projector mount (see the instructions on page 11).
Connect the IPCP 505 to a network (LAN) and connect other devices to the IPCP (see
Rear Panel Features and Connections
section of the IPCP 505 Setup Guide).
Connect power cords and turn on the output devices (projectors, monitors, speak-
ers), the IPCP, a PC (for setup) or touchpanel (for control after configuration), and input
devices (DSS, cable boxes, and the like).
Connect the PC and the IPCP 505 to the same Ethernet network (see page 14) and
use Telnet, Extron DataViewer, or a similar application to configure the IPCP for network
communication.
Connect any Extron TLP touchpanels that will be part of the system to the same network
as the PC and IPCP. Create a user interface layout for the touchpanels and upload the
GUI configuration to each touchpanel. See the GUI Configurator Help File for instructions.
