Introduction
The PVSE Precision Panel makes it easy to connect up to six ELAN
Electronic Volume Controls (VSE, VSE100, and VEHP) to ELAN S
Series and Z•Series equipment, and is also the perfect trim-out
solution for Electronic Volume Controls in any stand-alone system.
The PVSE is one of ELAN’s 1/2 frame Precision Panels and is
designed to be mounted in a PF2 Precision Panel Frame (see
page 4). Two 1/2 frame Precision Panels can be mounted in one
standard-size Precision Panel Frame, giving the flexibility to mix and
match the Precision Panels needed to complete a neat, problem-free
trim-out.
The back of the PVSE features six clearly labeled 110 punchdown
blocks that provide independent connections for Override, IR, and
Sense; plus two additional connectors for easy routing of Electronic
Volume Control IR signals to the System12 Precision Panel (PS12).
Two RJ-45 jacks on the rear of the panel make it easy to route
Override signals from the PZ600 Communications Controller
Precision Panel and link multiple PVSE panels together. There is
also a bank of six dipswitches that allow you to turn the front panel
volume control-specific IR Out ports into ‘ALL’ ports. In stand-alone
applications, this allows all six Electronic Volume Controls to control
any or all sources.
The PVSE’s front panel was designed with stand-alone applications
in mind. Six Trigger Inputs, plus a Trigger ‘ALL’ port, allow you to
mute any or all Electronic Volume Controls whenever voltage is
not present. Six IR Inputs, plus an ‘ALL’ port, allow a VIA!
®
SR1 or
VIA!®2-SS1 to independently control Electronic Volume Controls
connected to the panel. Six IR Out ports, plus an ‘ALL’ IR Out port,
allow each or all VSEs to control source components in a standalone system.
Electronic Volume Controls that are connected to the PVSE are
powered by the included PWR12 +12VDC/2A power supply.

Installation
PF2 Precision Panel Frame
The PF2 accommodates any two 1/2 frame Precision Panels.
The kit includes a full-size Precision Panel frame, an insert with predrilled holes for the mounting of two 1/2 frame Precision Panels,
mounting screws, and a blank 1/2 frame plate to cover an unused
half of the frame. PBKT6P new-construction brackets are available,
or the PF2 can easily be retro-fitted using the four clamping legs
attached to the frame, which clamp the panel securely to drywall.
Note: The PF2 is required for the installation of all 1/2 frame
Precision Panels.

RJ-45 Pin Out
ELAN recommends using ELAN C4545 and/or C45P RJ-45 interconnect cables for all Cat-5 connections to the PVSE. Should you prefer
to terminate your own RJ45 cables, refer to the diagram below for
the correct pin-out.
PVSE Punch-Down Connectors
The back of the PVSE uses standard 110 punchdown connectors for
all wire runs. Wires do not need to be stripped prior to punchdown
as the insulation will automatically be displaced. Each punchdown
row will accept two 24 or 22 AWG solid conductor wires. Use the
included 110 punchdown tool to properly make connections and
avoid damaging the PVSE.

IR ROUTING Dipswitch Settings
IR from Electronic Volume Controls connected to the PVSE can be
routed to the front IR Output jacks in two different ways. By default,
the dipswitches are all down, meaning that each Electronic Volume
Control sends IR to its’ specific IR port on the front of the panel, and
the ALL port. For example, the Electronic Volume Control connected
to the VSE 1 location will only send IR out of IR OUT 1 and ALL.
By moving a dipswitch to the upper ALL position, the corresponding
IR OUT port becomes an ALL port; passing IR signals from every
Electronic Volume Control that is connected to the PVSE.
The original ALL port remains active and functions identically
regardless of dipswitch settings.
In the example below, Dipswitch #1 is in the Up position. IR OUT
#1 will pass IR sent from any Electronic Volume Control that is connected to the PVSE. Dipswitch #2 is in the Down position. IR OUT
#2 will only pass IR from the Electronic Volume Control connected to
the VSE 2 location. The ALL port will pass IR from both volume
controls.

TRIGGERS
ELAN Electronic Volume Controls have a feature called “Sense”
which corresponds to the TRIGGERS ports on the PVSE and provides the ability to Mute when voltage is absent. Connect a mono
3.5mm interconnect cable from a specific TRIGGERS port on the
PVSE to a ZONE TRIGGER OUTPUT or UNIT TRIG OUT of a
System12, a ZONE TRIGGER OUTPUT or SYSTEM TRIG OUT of
an S6, the REMOTE OUT of a Z•POWER, Z•630 or Z•660 amplfier,
or the +12VDC TRIGGER OUT of a D1200 or D1650 amplifier, in
order to Mute the Electronic Volume Controls when a specific zone is
turned Off. Connect the Trigger output to the ALL TRIGGERS port
to Mute all volume controls simultaneously. The Electronic Volume
Controls will not automatically Un-Mute when the zone or system is
turned back On. See the VSE Electronic Volume Control
Installation Manual for valuable information about how Electronic
Volume Controls’ Sense features react to Triggers.

IR IN
Use the IR IN ports to control specific volume controls from an
ELAN IR source such as a VIA!
®
SR1 or VIA!®2-SS1. Connect a
mono 3.5mm interconnect cable from an IR source’s IR output port
to the IR IN port of the PVSE. Make sure to connect the correct out-
put to the correct input! Connecting an IR source to the IR IN ALL
port will send IR to all volume controls connected to the PVSE.
The drawing below shows a VIA!SR1 connected to a PVSE Precision
Panel. The SR1’s IR OUTPUT 1-3 ports are each assigned to a
specific IR IN port on the PVSE. SR1 IR OUTPUT #1 will send IR to
the volume control connected to VSE1 on the PVSE, IR OUTPUT #2
sends IR to VSE 2, etc. SR1 IR OUTPUT #8 sends IR to the IR IN
ALL port and will control all volume controls connected to the PVSE.

IR OUT
The IR OUT ports route IR that originates at the volume control loca-
tion (typically a hand-held remote). Punch-downs are located on
the rear of the PVSE that deal with IR routing for most ELAN system
applications, therefore, the front panel IR OUT ports are seldom
used in an ELAN system. One System12 application does present
itself, though. Use a specific IR OUT port or the ALL port to connect
to the EXT IR IN port of an S12. This will allow IR to pass-through
Electronic Volume Controls that are not part of an S12 zone to control source equipment that is part of the S12 system.
The diagram below shows IR OUT #1 from the PVSE connected to
the EXT IR IN port on the System12. The volume control connected
to VSE 1 can send IR to sources connected to the S12.

TRIGGERS Connections
The TRIGGERS ports on the PVSE act as inputs. Although normally
used for ELAN system integration, the TRIGGERS ports on the front
of the PVSE can be used to activate the “Sense” feature of Electronic
Volume Controls in Stand-Alone applications.
Connect a mono 3.5mm plug into the TRIGGERS jack that corresponds to the Electronic Volume Control that is to be Muted. If all
the volume controls are to Mute together, connect this plug into the
ALL port. Connect the other end to a source that provides 3-24 VDC
output when turned On. Certain amplifiers and A/V or Stereo
Receivers have triggered outputs.
The diagram below shows an A/V Receiver muting the volume
control connected to VSE 1, while an Amplifier Mutes all volume
controls connected to the PVSE.

IR IN Connections
It is possible to send IR to ELAN Electronic Volume Controls through
the IR IN ports on the front of the PVSE. The volume control will
respond to signals it receives just like it would if a hand-held IR
remote control were pointed at it. Connect an IR receiver or other
IR source such as an IR connecting block to the specific IR IN port
that corresponds with the volume control you are sending the IR to.
If volume control-specific IR functionality is not required, connect the
IR source to the ALL port.
The example below shows an IR Receiver/IR Connecting Block
connected to IR IN #1. IR sent to this IR Receiver will be routed to
the volume control that is connected to the VSE 1 punchdown
location. Also shown is a VIA!
®
Touch Panel that is connected to the
ALL port, which will route IR to all volume controls connected to the
PVSE.

See IR ROUTING Dipswitch Settings (p. 24) before making
IR OUT connections. Once the configuration is decided upon
and the IR ROUTING dipswitches are correctly set, plug IR miniemitters or mono 3.5mm interconnect cables into the appropriate
IR OUT ports.
The diagram below shows IR OUT #1 connected to a DVD player.
IR ROUTING Dipswitch #1 is in the Down position so that the DVD
player can only be controlled from the volume control that is
punched down to the VSE 1 location on the back of the PVSE.
An A/V Receiver is connected to the ALL port and can be controlled
by any volume control connected to the PVSE. IR ROUTING
Dipswitch #2 is in the Up position. IR OUT #2 sends IR from
any volume control connected to the PVSE to the Satellite Receiver
