Introduction

Overview

This guide covers the installation of the Extron PoleVault IP System 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.

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 PoleVault IP System

Extron PoleVault IP Systems are easy-to-use, network-enabled, all-inclusive packages, making them ideal for single-projector classrooms. PoleVault IP Systems use economical 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, and 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.
