Line out audio port — This port is used for connecting an Extron external amplifier, recording, podcasting, or assisted
g
listening devices. It can be configured via RS-232 for fixed or variable audio output (default is variable). It can be wired for
balanced or unbalanced signals.
Remote control connector
RS-232/MLC/IR control port — The PVS switcher can be controlled via an RS -232 connection directly from a host computer,
h
a control system, or a MediaLink Controller (MLC). The MLC provides remote control of input switching and volume.
Connect a cable between this port and the MLC MediaLink Controller. The RS-232 protocol is 9600 baud, 8-bit, 1 stop bit,
no parity, and no flow control. Refer to the
The PVS 305SA is capable of receiving signals from PVT wallplates located up to 100 feet (30 m) away. The optimum distance
is between 50 and 75 feet (15 and 22 m). The minimum distance is 15 feet (4.6 m).
Cable A carries the video signals and cable B carries the audio signal, vertical sync information and 5 VDC current from the PVS
to power the PVT wallplates.
The ports on the rear of the PVS 305SA are color coded for input number and signal type. To ensure correct cable identification
and connection during installation, a sheet of color coded cable labels is supplied. Refer to “Labeling the A/V Inputs” section in the
Polevault System Installation Manual, for details.
When connecting the TP cables to the PVS 305SA connect input 1’s cable A to the RJ-45 port labeled 1A, and input 1’s cable B to
the RJ-45 port labeled 1B. Likewise, connect input 2, 3, or 4‘s cable A to its corresponding numbered A port, and cable B to its B
port. Do not cross-connect the cables.
RJ-45 termination must comply with the TIA/EIA T 568A or 568B wiring standards for all connectors. The same standard
MUST be used at both ends of all cables. Refer to the PoleVault System Installation Manual for details. The cables supplied
with the PoleVault system are terminated to the TIA 568A standard.
Input 5 is audio only. No video signals should be connected to this input.
Do not tie both L and R outputs to each other and/or to ground as it may short the outputs and damage the amplifier.
The speaker setup covers two individual speakers of 8 ohm impedance or two pairs of speakers in parallel, where each channel drives
a maximum output load of 2 ohms.

k
a VCM, to the PVS 305SA . The range is 0 to 10 V, where 0 V is mute and 10 V is maximum volume. When connected,
the external volume control module is the sole volume controller. Connect the supplied blue, male, 3-pole captive screw
connector to this port.
N
Do not control the PVS volume via RS-232 if this port is connected to a VCM 100, or a VC 50. If a VCM is controlling the
volume, an MLC should not control audio volume via RS-232.
Power connector
DC power connector — When all other cables have been connected, plug the round power jack from the 12 VDC
a
source
into this connector to power the switcher, the PVT wallplates, the MLC controller and, where installed, the VoiceLift
receiver
. One of the five front panel input button LED is lit when the PVS 305SA is receiving power.
N Use only the supplied 12 V, 5A power supply for this switcher.
The PVS 305SA power supply can support a typical system: for example, a PVS 305SA , 4 PVT Wallplates, 2 or 4 speakers,
an MLC 104 IP Plus with an IRCM DV+, and a VoiceLift Microphone system.
