Installation and Operation
Installation Overview
CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. These products should be used with UL approved electrical boxes. See “UL Requirements”, page
To install and set up Relay Control Modules, follow these steps:
1Turn the equipment off. Make sure that the control module(s) and the MediaLink Controller (MLC) are disconnected from the power source.
2Run cables through the wall or furniture where the control module(s) will be installed.
3If applicable, follow the site preparation (hole cutting, electrical box or mud ring/mounting bracket installation, and cable preparation) instructions included with the device, faceplate, or AAP wall plate into which the control module will be installed. Cable clamps should be used to hold the cables in place for strain relief. Trim back and/or insulate exposed cable shields with heat shrink to reduce the chance of short circuits.
4Attach the control module(s) to the Extron faceplate(s) or AAP wall plate(s).
5Set the identification DIP switches on each control module’s circuit board.
6Connect
7Connect the control module(s) to the MLC. At the control module end of the cable, wire the connector that will attach the MLC to the control module(s). Plug the wired connector into the receptacles on the back of the control module(s), and insert and fasten the wires to the appropriate pins of the MLS/Power port on the bottom of the MLC.
8Connect the projector’s
9Connect a MediaLink Switcher (MLS) to the MLC 206 and to the projector, if applicable.
10Restore power to the MLC, and connect the optional MLS switcher to a power supply.
11Set up the MLC.
The setup/configuration requires an
12Press a button on each control module. If the expected action (a lighting or screen position change, for example) doesn’t occur, disconnect power from the MLC and verify correct connector wiring at both ends of the cable(s).
13Mount the MLC and the faceplate/wallplate containing the control module(s) into the wall/furniture. Make sure that the faceplate is grounded.
UL Requirements
1.These units are not to be connected to a centralized DC power source or used beyond their rated voltage range.
2.These units must be installed in UL listed junction boxes.
The UL approved electrical wall box (junction box) is not included with the control module; the installer is responsible for obtaining and installing the box.
3.These units must be installed with accordance with the National Electrical Code and with local electrical codes.
