PlenumVault®, and WallVault® Digital Systems, and
is used in conjunction with the Extron PVT digital
series of transmitters and Extron speakers. The PVS 405D accepts HDMI and high resolution (RGB) video and audio signals. The
RGB input is digitized at the PVT input wallplate. In addition, it has dedicated ports for connecting the optional VoiceLift
and a Page Sensor unit for facility communications.
NOTE: For full installation, configuration, connector wiring, and operation details, see the PVS 405D User Guide, available at
www.extron.com.
Installing and Cabling the PVS 405D Switcher
The PVS 405D may come already pre-mounted in the Extron PMK 560 (Projector Mount Kit) and the PVM 220 (PlenumVault
Mount Kit).
However, if it is not pre-mounted, to mount the PVS 405D, follow the steps in the system installation guide, supplied with the
complete PoleVault, PlenumVault, or WallVault System. Alternatively follow the steps in the relevant Setup Guide for the mounting
kit (PMK 560, PVM 220, WMK 160, or USFM 100). Connect the cables to the switcher as shown below.

ATTENTION: The PoleVault signal transmission method is specic for PVS 405D switchers working with PVT digital wallplates.
DO NOT connect the input ports to an MTP system or to an Ethernet/LAN or data transmission system.
NOTES:
• The PVS 405D is capable of receiving signals from PVT wallplates located up to 150 feet (45 m) away.
• 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.
• The use of shielded cable, such as Extron STP201 or Extron XTP DTP 24 cable, is strongly recommended.

PVS 405D • Setup Guide (Continued)
Step 1 — Connect A/V inputs
a HDMI and RGB video and audio inputs — Using recommended TP cables (see the Notes re cables on page 1), connect
up to four HDMI or RGB input sources via the PVT SW HDMI RGB D or PVT SW HDMI D input wallplates to these two RJ-45
female connectors. These inputs can be four HDMI with embedded audio, or two HDMI and two high resolution computer
video and audio sources, or a combination. The front panel input selection button toggles the inputs 1 through 4 as required.
NOTE: Each PVT input wallplate supports two input sources. A maximum of two PVT input wallplates can be connected
to the PVS 405D.
Audio input — Input 5 is a dedicated-audio only input for an auxiliary, stereo, line-level analog audio signal from an
b
output source such as an iPod device or an MP3 player. Connect the cable from the source to this 5-pole captive screw
connector. The connector can be wired as balanced or unbalanced (see the PVS 405D User Guide for method).
NOTE: Input 5 is audio only. No video signals are supported on this input.
Aux input — Connect an auxiliary audio device to this 3-pole captive screw connector. It can be wired for balanced or
c
unbalanced mono audio. Aux audio can be congured to duck program audio or to be mixed with program audio (inputs 1-5).
VoiceLift receiver connection — Connect an optional Extron VoiceLift receiver to this RJ-45 connector for the
d
integration of a VoiceLift Microphone system.
NOTE: The Extron VoiceLift Microphone Kit is an optional accessory and must be purchased separately.
Paging sensor input — Connect the optional Extron Priority Page Sensor Kit to this port, to enable program audio
e
interruptions during paging system broadcasts.
NOTE: Priority Page Sensor Kits (part numbers 70-1064-01 or 70-619-01) are optional accessories, purchased separately.
Step 2 — Connect A/V Outputs
HDMI output — Connect an HDMI capable display or the projector to this female HDMI connector.
f
Audio Out (line level) — This port is used for connecting an external Extron audio amplier, a recording podcasting
g
device, or an assistive listening system. It can be congured via RS-232 or USB for xed or variable audio output (default is
variable). It can be wired for balanced or unbalanced signals (see the PVS 405D User Guide for method)..
Amplified Audio Out — Connect speakers to each channel marked “L” and “R” (left and right) using the supplied black
h
4-pin, 5 mm connector. Wire red to positive, black to negative. Each channel is rated for 25 W at 4 or 8 ohm loads.
If using more than one speaker per channel, connect them in parallel.
ATTENTION: DO NOT tie L and R outputs to each other and/or to ground as it will short the outputs and damage the amplifier.
Step 3 — Connect Remote Control, IR, and LAN Connectors
Remote (RS-232/MLC) control port— The PVS switcher can be controlled via an RS -232 connection directly from a
i
host computer, 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 (see gure 2). The RS-232 protocol is 9600
baud, 8-bit, 1-stop bit, no parity, and no ow control. See the MLC 104 IP Plus User Manual for full details.
NOTE: To power the MLC 104 IP Plus wire it directly into the same power supply the switcher uses (see gures 2 and 3).

panel power LED and an input LED illuminates when the switcher is receiving power.
NOTE:Use only the supplied 12 V, 4 A power supply for this switcher. The PVS 405D power supply can support a typical
system: for example, a PVS 405D, 2 PVT Wallplates, 2 or 4 speakers, an MLC 104 IP Plus with an IRCM DV+, and
a VoiceLift Microphone system. If an additional SCP 104 is used, the MLC 104 IP Plus MUST have its own power
supply.

Front Panel Operation and Configuring the PVS 405D Switcher
For full details of front panel operation and switcher conguration, refer to the PVS 405D User Guide, and the MLC 104 IP Plus
User Guide. For VoiceLift and Page Sensor installation and operation details, refer to the VoiceLift System User Guide and the
Priority Page Sensor Kit Installation Instructions. All these are available online at www.extron.com.
Front Panel Operation
1. To change inputs, press the input button d to sequentially cycle through inputs 1 through 4, (video and audio), and input 5
(audio only). The LEDs
this press and hold the Select button for 3 seconds until the Aux LED lights.
2. To adjust audio input levels, select an input then turn the Input encoder g through 43 positions in 1 dB steps
(-18 to +24 dB, default 0). The LEDs h indicate the signal level status (not volume).
3. To adjust VoiceLift microphone level, turn the VoiceLift i through 43 positions in 1 dB steps (-18 to +24 dB, default 0).
Front panel LEDs
j
NOTE: On initial switcher power-up the output volume level is automatically adjusted to80%.
4. To adjust Paging sensitivity, turn the Paging encoder k clockwise to increase, and counter-clockwise to decrease sensitivity.
The status LED l illuminates when an announcement from the paging system is detected.
The Extron Priority Page Sensor Kits (PPS 35, part number 70-1064-01 or PPS 25, part number 70-619-01) are optional
accessories and can be purchased separately.
Configuration
The PVS 405D switcher can be controlled by a MediaLink Controller (MLC) or by an RS-232 device acting through the MLC. The
switcher can be also set up and controlled via a host computer or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear
panel RS-232 remote port of the switcher. The control device (host) can use Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands or
the Product Conguration Software (PCS) program. See pages 1 and 2 for connection details.
(inputs 1-5) indicate which input is active. The aux input is selectable for configuration only. To do
e
indicate mic input signal levels.
NOTE:Configuration can also be completed by connecting a USB cable to the mini USB config. port on the front panel
(see c in figure 3). This port uses the same protocol as the rear panel RS-232 port.
See the PVS 405D User Guide for full conguration methods using SIS commands.
See the Product Conguration Software (PCS) program embedded Help le for conguration methods using PCS.
