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 EBS-

N100 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.

HTML Interface Configuration

Once power has been applied to the unit, an IP address must be assigned manually thru the EBS-

N100’s web interface.

All EBS-N100’s are shipped with a Static IP Address of 192.168.0.10. This IP address can be

changed as follow:

•Connect the EBS-N100 to a computer with the same sub-net (192.168.0.XXX)

•Start the computers browser and enter 192.168.0.10

•The EBS-N100’s main web page will appear; select the Configure tab and the following page

will appear

•Set the desired IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway and document below:

IP Address:

•Select Submit and Restart to reboot the unit for the new IP Address to take effect

Configuring the Unit

Before you begin using the EBS-N100, you must enter the display type and model to which it is

connected. The controls available in the user interface (EBS-N100 software) directly correspond to the

display type and model that you select. To enter the display type and model, perform the following

steps:

•In the Device field, select the type of display to which the EBS-N100 is connected.

•In the Model field, select the model of the device.

•In the Location field, enter the location of the EBS-N100, such as a room number or a

conference room. This information is helpful to identify the EBS-N100 unit.

•Click the Submit button. The controls available on the user interface will directly correspond to

the selected display and model

Controlling a Display

Once configured for a particular display device, the EBS-N100 may be used to control display

parameters. An example web page used for display control is shown below. The actual controls

available are dependent upon the particular display model.

Maintenance

functions on a display.

Energy Savings

Standard (normal brightness)

Reduced (approx. 30% less bright)

Picture Inversion

This feature reverses the blacks and

whites to counter-act the affects of

image retention on Plasmas. Using a

static image of text or logos can cause

image retention. By using inversion,

the effects are minimized by reversing

the image. This function can be

scheduled to be performed at night or

after hours when the display is not

viewed.

Orbit

Another method of reducing image retention is to use Orbit, which will move the image in a slight

shifted pattern and therefore minimize the static placement of images.

Configure

This page is used for basic and advanced

configuration options for the EBS-N100.

It is from this page that the connected

product type is selected and user

identified information can be included.

Network settings allow for the IP of the

selected EBS-N100 to be either assigned

an IP by a DHCP server or for a fix IP to

be set by the user.

Under Advanced Settings, an alternative

name can be assigned to the EBS-N100

and password settings for access to

display controls can be set.
