This guide provides procedures for setting up and configuring the Extron RCP 2000 Remote Control Panel with ISS 506
Support.
IP Setup
The RCP 2000 is delivered with a factory default IP address of 192.168.254.253. If you want to change this address, or need
to enter other information required for Ethernet or serial communication, follow these steps:
1. Press the Color/Tint, Cont/Bright,
Size, and Center picture control

displayed on the LCD screen.
2. Press the Cut or Take button repeatedly to
step through the IP Setup menu options to
access the item to be changed.
3. If adjusting one of the four IP settings (RCP
IP address, switcher IP address, subnet
mask, or Gateway), press the Color/Tint,
Cont/Bright, Size, or Center button to select
an address block (octet) to change. The
selected octet on the LCD screen blinks.
4. Rotate the H Adjust knob to change the
selected value.
5. When finished, press the Detail button to save the configuration and exit IP Setup.
