Introduction About this Manual This manual contains information about the Extron RGB 470xi series of universal wall, furniture and floorbox mountable interfaces, and on how to configure and operate them. Unless otherwise noted, “interface” will be used to refer to all models interchangeably. For information on installing the wall box-mountable versions of these interfaces, refer to one of the available installation guides. For wall or furniture mount installations (and EC versions), refer to #68-636-03.
Installation UL Requirements 5 4 The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the installation of the RGB 470xi series of interfaces into a wall or furniture. 7 6 INPUT SELECT 1 MIN/MAX 2 1 1. These units are not to be connected to a centralized DC power source or used beyond their rated voltage range. 2 2. These units must be installed in UL listed junction boxes. 3 3. These units must be installed with conduit in accordance with the National Electrical Code. H.
Installation, cont’d Tip (L) Sleeve (GND) 13 xi Network connectors (RGB 474xi xi) — Connect a computer to this RJ-45 female connector for pass-through to a network. 14 Opening for Architectural Adapter Plates — The RGB 478xi can accept up to four optional standard architectural adapter plates (AAPs) attached here. The RGB 478 Mxi (not pictured) can accept up to four optional mini architectural adapter plates (MAAPs) attached here. The adapter plates come with a variety of audio/video connectors.
Installation, cont’d 1 CAUTION Connect the sleeve to ground (Gnd). Connecting the sleeve to a negative (-) terminal will damage the audio output circuits. Unbalanced Output 5 — Negative sync — This switch controls sync polarity. R+ R- Audio Mono See Caution Tip Ring Sleeve (s) Tip Ring L+ L- R+ R- Sleeve (s) Tip On — The interface outputs serration pulses in the vertical sync interval. Off — The interface does not output serration pulses.
Installation, cont’d may be overcompensated. If the edges of the image seem to exceed their boundaries, or if thin lines and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, try changing the gain/ peaking setting. Adjust the gain before installing the interface into a wall or furniture, as the gain switch will be inaccessible after installation. Power connector — Connect a 9VDC to 24VDC power supply to this 3.5 mm, 2-pole one-piece captive Power screw connector. Wire the connector as + or – – or + shown here.
Installation, cont’d Mounting the optional AAP or MAAP devices Application Examples The interface and any optional architectural adapter plates (standard or mini) must be cabled before the interface is installed in a wall or furniture. The screws needed for installing the optional standard AAP devices are built into its front panel, and hex screws are provided with the MAAP devices, so no additional screws will be needed. 1.
