Introduction

Overview

This guide covers the installation of the Extron PoleVault Digital System, and also the installation methods for each type of WallVault and PlenumVault enclosure.
NOTE: PoleVault, WallVault, and PlenumVault Digital systems use the same digital PVS
switcher, input source AV devices, control device, and ceiling speakers. However, the systems have different mounting enclosures, (PMK 560, USFM 100, WMK 160, and PVM 220), depending on the system type. This guide attempts to use a basic PoleVault Digital System setup to cover installing the common system components, and highlights the different enclosure installations separately.
The PoleVault Digital System is used in a drop ceiling room with a wood or concrete structural ceiling. If the location has a concrete or beam style ceiling, alternative ceiling mounts can be obtained separately from Extron.
WallVault Systems are specifically developed for classrooms or lecture rooms with a wall mounted short-throw projector or flat panel display. WallVault Systems utilize either the USFM 100 or WMK 160 enclosures to securely mount and conceal the system switching and audio amplification components on the wall.
PlenumVault Systems are designed for rooms with a suspended ceiling. They utilize the PVM 220 PlenumVault Mounting Kit that securely mounts and conceals system components in the plenum space above the suspended ceiling.
It is assumed that the installer has some knowledge and experience of AV, electrical, or electronic device installation. This guide takes the AV installer through the steps for installation and connection of each of the system component parts.
It may be that the locations for the devices (for example, wall plates, projector, and screen) have been pre-determined. However, some room installation examples are given to help in installations where final location is yet to be determined.

The Digital PoleVault, WallVault, and PlenumVault Systems

The Digital PoleVault, WallVault, and PlenumVault Systems are easy-to-use, network­enabled, all-inclusive packages, making them ideal for single-display classrooms. These Systems use shielded twisted pair cables for transmitting signals and include network connectivity for Web-based asset management, monitoring, and control.
NOTES:
The hardware and devices listed on the inventory pages have detailed safety
information, installation, set-up, and configuration instructions which should be referred to as needed.
For operation and setup of the projector, screen, and input devices, refer to the
relevant manufacturer manuals supplied with those devices.
A PoleVault System Installation video is viewable online at www.extron.com.
This video is also a step by step guide to installing PoleVault System and is useful for first-time installations.

PoleVault Digital Systems • Introduction

Before You Begin — Planning the Installation

Before installation is started, you must consider several major factors to ensure that the installation process is as smooth and trouble free as possible, and so that the final finished project meets the needs of the customers, users, audiences, and installer.
The installation considerations on the following pages, though not comprehensive, should be consulted to help ensure that key installation aspects have been considered.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance
When planning where to install the Polevault System, you may need to consider factors affecting accessibility of the system such as the height of devices from the floor (for example the MLC controller), distance from obstructions, and how far a user must reach to press any device buttons.
For guidelines, see sections 307 (“Protruding Objects”) and 308 (“Reach Ranges”) of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design available at:
http://www.ada.gov/regs2010/2010ADAStandards/2010ADAStandards.pdf.

1. Mark Screen Location.
PCM 340
Minimum/Maximum Throw Distance Marks
TIPS:
When marking the location of screens,
devices, or the site for installing transmitters and MediaLink control devices, use painters tape to avoid wall surface damage.
When marking the center line of the
screen, where possible, keep it aligned with the center of the ceiling tile. This makes the projector installation and alignment easier.
a. Mark the center line and the outer edges of the
screen.
b. Mark any structural studs, utility pipes, conduits,
or fire breaks before drilling the hardware holes. Do not drill the holes yet.
2. Install Projector to Verify Location.
a. Remove the ceiling tiles at the location, and
mark the maximum and minimum throw distances on the T-frame. See the projector installation manual for more information.
Mark the screen location.
Ä
TIP: For ease of working on the T-frame,
remove the adjacent tiles.
b. Place the PCM 340 over the T-frame, between
the two marks. Lightly tighten the T-frame securing screws. The T-frame screws can be used on the outside or the inside to secure the PCM to the T-frame.
NOTE: Place the PCM 340 on the T-frame
so that the pipe adapter slides left to right in relation to the proposed screen location, rather than towards and away from it. This makes it easier to align and center the image.
c. Slide the slotted pipe up into the pipe adapter.
Adjust to the desired height and align the location holes and pipe holes. Insert the location screw, lightly tightening it down using a 5/32 inch hex wrench. Insert and lightly tighten down the set screws onto the pipe. Do not overtighten. The pipe is removed and replaced later during installation.

i. Invert the projector on a flat surface to access
the mounting points. Use a blanket or a similar item under the projector to protect the projector and the surface.
ii. On each arm, rotate the barrel (on the end
of the arm) so that it only just protrudes from the base of the arm (see the figure at right).
iii. Select the correct sized mounting screws and
the appropriately sized washers that fit the projector mounting point inserts.
iv. To attach the arms to the projector:
The next step is critical as it provides a flat surface for the bracket to sit on, and must be done for each mounting point.
Place a washer on a mounting point
(see the figure at right).
Position the arm so the barrel is over the
washer.
Insert the mounting screw down through
the barrel and washer, and into the threaded insert (mounting point). Lightly tighten the screw by hand.

loosen the mounting screws (do not remove). If the arm or the barrel lifts, this indicates stress on the arm. Adjust the height of the threaded barrels to reduce or eliminate any torque or stress that might be caused by crossed arms or by projector mounting points with differing heights. It is important to keep the arms level and as close (low) to the projector base as possible.
x. Check that the projector weight is still as
evenly distributed as possible. Hand tighten the screws until snug.
ATTENTION: Do not overtighten the
mounting screws as this may damage the projector. See the projector manual for the threaded insert torque setting.
f. Lift the projector up to the adjuster plate and
slide it into place. Tighten down the locking and pivot screws.

electrical box (not supplied) on the PCM base plate (for example, a RACO 232, 2 1/8 inch deep, 4x4 inch electrical box and a RACO 778, 1/2 inch raised, 4x4 inch plaster ring or similar).
Install the RACO box on the PCM plate as follows:
a. Attach the box to the plate, using the smallest
notches in opposite corners of the cut-out (see figure at right). Do not tighten the screws fully at this time.
b. On the opposite side of the PCM plate, slide
the plaster ring under the screws. The plaster ring anchors the box in place with PCM plate sandwiched between.
c. Fully tighten the screws.
WARNING: May result in electrical
shock or serious injury. For safety, complete all wiring of the electrical boxes and accessories after the plate is fully installed and secured.
Use the smallest notches when attaching the RACO box.
RACO 778 Plaster Ring
é Install the RACO box and plaster ring onto the PCM 340.
d. Mark and cut a hole in the ceiling tile for the
electrical box opening.
9. Install the Screen.
a. Following the guidelines given by the screen
manufacturer, continue to install the screen mounting brackets and then hang the screen.
TIP: Use S-hooks to hang the screen
from the brackets. Bend the ends of the S-hooks so the screen does not fall when it is rolled up.

right). Do not remove the inner protective jackets that cover the individual wires. If the sensor is to be located in a plenum space, feed a loop of one of the exposed speaker wires through the cable clamp into the junction box. The other wire must bypass the sensor to be connected later directly to the speaker.
4. Open the top of the Priority Page Sensor and loop the speaker wire that is inside the junction box

tightly around the top part of the sensor.
NOTE: Loop only one of the speaker wires
around the sensor cover. Do not loop both wires. Polarity need not be observed.
The other speaker wire must bypass the sensor and connect directly to the speaker.
For a 25 V or 70 V system, wrap 5 to 8 loops.
For a 4/8 ohm system, wrap 2 to 4 loops.
5. Close and latch the top of the Priority Page Sensor. Reconnect the speaker cable to the speaker.
