FCC Class A Notice
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation. The Class A limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in
a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.

A 12’ male-to-male RS-232 cable is provided with the RCP.
This cable can be used to connect the ISS 506 switcher’s
RS-232 port to the RCP 2000’s To Switcher (RS-232) port.
If you require a different length of cable, you can make
your own communication cable (see “Making an RCP
Communication Cable,” in chapter 2, “Installation”).
N
Additionally, you can connect the RCP 2000 to the ISS 506
via Ethernet, through a LAN, using a straight-through
cable, or directly, using an Ethernet cross-over cable.
(Ethernet cables are not provided.)

Introduction
User preset recall — User presets save color, tint, contrast,
brightness, detail, sizing, and centering settings on the
ISS 506. Up to three presets can be saved on each input. You
can recall a preset that was saved to an input button on the
ISS by pressing the equivalent Preview input button on the
RCP.
Logos — The RCP can enable logos that have been created and
assigned on the ISS 506 to be displayed on the output screen.
Auto Image — Auto Image automatically sizes and centers the
selected preview input to fill the screen.
Gooseneck lamp — The provided Littlite® flexible gooseneck
lamp can be connected to the XLR lamp socket on the RCP
top panel for low-intensity illumination of the control panel in
low-light environments.
About this Manual
This manual contains information about the Extron RCP 2000
Remote Control Panel with ISS 506 Support, and describes how
to connect and operate it.
About the RCP 2000 with ISS 506 Support
The Extron RCP 2000 remote control panel with ISS 506 support
provides complete remote control of the ISS 506 seamless
switcher. The RCP controls the input selection, transition effect
(cut, dissolve, wipe, PIP [picture-in-picture], or title), transition
duration (automatic or T-bar manual control), and picture
controls (color, tint, contrast, brightness, sizing, and centering)
that are available on the ISS 506 switcher.
The RCP 2000 offers bi-directional Ethernet and RS-232
communication with the ISS 506. It allows full control from
either the RCP or the seamless switcher.
Application Diagram
The following diagram shows an example of how the RCP 2000
can be connected to the ISS 506 in an A/V system.

Follow these steps to set up and install the RCP 2000 with
ISS 506 support:
To Switcher port — This 9-pin female D connector provides for
two-way RS-232 serial communications with the ISS switcher. If
using a serial connection, connect an RS-232 cable from this port
to the switcher’s RS-232 port.
1
Turn all of the equipment off. Make sure that the ISS 506
and all attached devices are turned off and, if applicable,
disconnected from the power source.
2
Set the RCP 2000 on a table, podium, or other flat surface.
RS-232 port — This 9-pin female D connector provides for two-

3
Connect the RS-232 cable provided with the RCP 2000 to
the RS-232 port on the rear panel of the ISS and to the To
Switcher port on the rear panel of the RCP 2000; or attach
a network cable to the ISS and RCP 2000 Ethernet ports.
RJ-45 connector — If using an Ethernet connection, connect the
RCP 2000 to an ISS 506, directly with a crossover cable or over a
LAN with a patch, using this female RJ-45 connector.
4
Attach power cords to the ISS 506 switcher, the input
devices, and the output devices, and plug them into
grounded AC power sources.
Reset button — Use an Extron Tweeker or other small
screwdriver to press this recessed button to reset the RCP 2000
unit. See “Resetting the Unit” in chapter 3, “Operation,” for
additional information.
5
Attach the power cord to the RCP 2000 and plug it into a
grounded AC power source.
6
Check the default cycle screens in the LCD window. If a
screen with the words “ISS 506 Linked” does not appear in
the rotation, do the following:
Making an RCP Communication Cable
Communication between the RCP 2000 and the ISS 506 is via
RS-232 or Ethernet. You are provided with a 12' RS-232 cable. If
you need a communication cable of a different length, use the
following guidelines to make your own cable.
•
Ensure that all devices are plugged in and receiving
power.
•
•
Check the cabling and make adjustments as needed.
Check the communication settings of the RCP and ISS.
RS-232 link
Both ends of the RS-232 cable must be terminated with a
9-pin male D connector. See the table below for RS-232 pin
assignments.
7
If using a network connection, set up communication
with the ISS 506 switcher via IP. See “Setting Up IP
Communications,” in chapter 3, “Operation.”

When connecting the RCP 2000 indirectly (through an
intermediate device, such as a network hub) to the ISS 506,
you must use a patch (straight-through) cable. See the
table below for RJ-45 patch cable connections (T568B is the
wiring standard).
Ethernet link
The RCP 2000 can also communicate
Pins:
12345678
with the ISS 506 via an Ethernet link,
using the RJ-45 connectors on the RCP
and the ISS. The RJ-45 connector is
illustrated at right. The RCP 2000 can
be connected to the ISS either directly,
or indirectly through a LAN.

Ethernet Control
The RCP 2000 Web pages allow you to control the RCP via
Ethernet. They also enable the RCP to control a networked
ISS 506 switcher.
Establishing a Connection
The resident Web pages are an alternative means of
communication with, and control through, the RCP unit. The
Web pages are accessed via a Web browser, such as Internet
Explorer (version 5.5 or higher).
The computer that is used to access the Web server must have
a connection in common with the RCP unit. For example, if the
unit is connected to your local intranet, the computer that is used
to access the unit must also be connected to your local intranet.
Similarly, if the unit is connected only to the Internet, the
computer that is used to access the unit must have an Internet
connection.
If you have established passwords for the unit, you are shown
a Password window when your browser accesses the RCP unit.
Your level of control over the unit depends on the password you
enter on this password screen. If you enter the administrator
password, you are permitted to configure or change all settings.
If you enter a user password, you are permitted only to control
A/V devices and to view status.

Logging On and Viewing System Status
4.
When finished viewing, click Log Off in the upper-right
corner of the screen to exit the system.
The RCP 2000 Web page has three tabs that you can select to
display different screens. When you first log on and access the
RCP Web site, the Status tab is selected. The Status tab contains
the System Status screen, which provides information on your
RCP’s current settings. Changes to these settings can be made
via the Configuration tab or the RCP 2000 front panel.
Using the Configuration Screens
When the Configuration tab is selected, two Configuration
Web pages are listed in the sidebar menu at the left of the
Configuration tab. The following sections describe the changes
you can make from these screens.
1.
Double-click the Web browser icon on your Windows
desktop to launch your Web browser.
2.
Enter the IP address of the unit (see “Setting Up IP
Communication,” in chapter 2, “Installation”) in the
address field at the top of the screen, and press the Enter
key. The Password window opens if a password has been
set. (This does not happen the first time you access the
interface, because no password is set at the factory).
System Settings screen
The System Settings screen lets you review the configuration
of the RCP unit, change the IP settings and adjust the date and
time. It also enables you to access the Web pages for the ISS 506
switcher. (See the illustration on the next page.)
3.
Enter the appropriate password (if required). The System
Status page opens, showing the current RCP IP address, the
switcher IP address, and other settings of the unit.
