NOTE: To redeem (activate) a LinkLicense, go to
instructions.
A LinkLicense unlocks features that add convenience, expand system options, and enhance the
capabilities of your Extron products. For IPCP Pro Q xi and xi systems, a LinkLicense allows you to
use a mobile device or computer as the primary control interface in an Extron control system where a
TouchLink Pro touchpanel may not be present.
• If using GC, create a new GC Professional or GC Plus project and configure the control processor,
expansion interfaces and other IP Link Pro devices. The configuration tells each control processor and
expansion interface:
• How its ports function
• How to control other products
• Which touchpanels to interact with
• Configure ports on the control processor:
•
Select device drivers and link them to each serial, IR/serial, or Ethernet port.
• Select settings (serial protocol, relay behavior, digital I/O or flex I/O settings, AC output settings) as
needed.
• Add eBUS devices and set them up:
•
Ensure that the hardware address (eBUS ID) set on each device is distinct and matches the address
used in the configuration.
•
Assign button functions as desired.
•
Add Network Button Panels (NBPs) and set them up. Assign button functions as desired.
•
Add the IPL EXP expansion interfaces and configure their ports. All ports can be configured or
programmed except for the Manual Control ports on the IPL EXP PDU4H.
•
Set up monitors, schedules, macros, and local variables.
•
Add touchpanels and set them up:
•
Upload the GUI configuration to the Global Configurator project.
•
Assign any appropriate functions, monitors, or schedules to the touchpanels and their buttons.
• If not using GC Professional or GC Plus, use ControlScript Pro xi programming tools to program the
control system as desired.
•
Program ports on the control processor:
•
Program each serial, IR/serial, or Ethernet port as needed.
•
Program relay behavior, digital I/O, flex I/O, and AC output settings as needed.
•
Add eBUS devices and set them up:
•
Ensure that the hardware address set on each device is distinct and matches the addresses
programmed for them in the IPCP.
•
Program button functions as desired.
•
Add Network Button Panels and set them up. Assign button functions as desired.
•
Add the IPL EXP expansion interfaces and program their ports. All ports can be configured or
programmed except for the Manual Control ports on the IPL EXP PDU4H.
•
Add touchpanels and set them up:
•
Upload the GUI configuration to the ControlScript Pro xi project.
•
Program functions, monitors, or schedules to the touchpanels and their buttons.
•
Save the project.
•
Build and upload the system configuration to the control processor, expansion interfaces, and other system
devices.
