Introduction
ELAN’s VSE2 is an electronic 12 step stereo Volume Control with
Variable Impedance Match settings of 1X, 2X, 4X and 8X designed
for use with ampliers of up to 100 Watts per channel output.
The VSE2 features an IR receiver which passes IR data to other
sources as well as accepting IR information from remote controls
or other IR devices.
The VSE2 also features an IR input so that external controllers
(Z•Pad Keypads, VIA!® Color LCD Touchpanels, etc.) can be hard
wired to this device without using an IR emitter.Additionally, the
VSE2 features ELAN’s patented Page/Doorbell Override to work
with ELAN communication controllers such as the COM2.
Impedance Match adjustments allow multiple pairs of speakers to
be connected to the same amplier channels without damaging
the amplier.

INSTALLATION MANUAL
• High-Power Capability: Handles up to 100 Watts/channel RMS.
• Override: Allows Page/Doorbell signals to override the music at
a preset level even with volume turned all the way down or with the
VSE2 in Mute.
• Impedance Matching (1X/2X/4X/8X): Allows multiple speaker
pairs to be connected to a single pair of amplier channels.
• IR In/Out: A built-in IR receiver allows the VSE2 to be controlled
from universal remotes, keypads, VIA! Color LCD Touch Screen, or
outboard IR receivers. IR can be sent to the VSE2 using an IR
emitter or through the RJ45 jack on the rear of the unit. IR can
be sent from the IR output to source equipment, IR distribution
networks or whole-house controllers.
• Sense Input: This option determines if a High to Low level
transition on the Sense Input mutes the VSE2’s volume. When
voltage drops to a Low level, the VSE2 mutes. The transition to
High voltage level DOES NOT un-mute the VSE2, however. A
physical button press is required to un-mute this device. This
allows the system or zone to be turned on without all of the VSE2s
in the system playing audio. Each VSE2 will turn on when the Zone
or System turns on, but they will all be muted.
When connecting to ELAN S6, S8.6, or S12 systems, the Sense
Input feature can be used for either zone-specic or systemwide
detection. ELAN Z•systems provide system On/O detection only.
This feature can be disabled.

• Sleep Mode: Allows automatic muting of the VSE2 after a
specied period of time (ten minutes, thirty minutes, one
hour, or two hours).
• Talkback LED: LED indicator ashes when IR activity is
received through the built-in IR receiver. This feature can be
disabled.
• Default Volume: This option guards against high volume
un-mutes. Determines maximum turn on volume level
when an IR VOLUME UP command is sent. This feature can
be disabled.
• On Default Volume Check: This option determines if the
Default Volume is used as the maximum level when the
VSE2 is un-muted by an IR ON Command. This feature can
be disabled.
• Code Grouping: Allows independent control of VSEs
connected to the same IR wiring.
• Preset Volume Levels: Eleven preset levels allow user to
obtain a specied volume level with one button press.
• Programmable Volume Jumps: Adjustable rate of volume
increment when using Volume Level Presets allows for Fast
Ramping, Slow Ramping, or Instant (no ramping).
• Variable Speed Ramping: Volume Up speed depends
on volume level. As the volume level reaches higher levels,
the speed of volume ramping decreases. This feature can be
disabled.
• PTC-Thermal Protection Circuit: When the PTC detects
problems such as, too much power, crossed speaker wiring,
or improper impedance, the circuit will open, protecting
the volume control. When the problem has been corrected,
the circuit will close and resume operation.

INSTALLATION MANUAL
Installation
Rough-in
The VSE2 ts into most 18 cu. in. rough-in boxes. DO NOT install
the VSE2 in the same electrical box as high-voltage (110, 240VAC)
devices such as dimmers, light switches, etc. as these devices will
cause harmful interference and create buzzing, humming, or other
audio interference. Close proximity to high-voltage devices can
also cause undesired IR operation.
Like any IR device, the VSE2’s IR receiver is susceptible to
interference from ambient light, sunlight, or plasma television
radiation. Please do not mount the unit in locations susceptible to
these conditions.
Note: The VSE2 is not warranted for outdoor installation.
Wiring
Four-conductor speaker wire and Cat-5 cable should be run
from the main equipment location where the system’s amplier
is located to the mounting location for each VSE2. The speaker
terminals on this unit will accommodate 14 to 24 AWG stranded
copper speaker wire. Runs that exceed 150 feet should use
heavier gauge wire, but 16 or 18 AWG is usually sucient. Check
local building codes for specic guidelines regarding in-wall wire
runs. Cat-5 cable is required when installing this unit to provide
Power, Override, Sense Input, IR In, and IR Out. This unit must be
connected to power in order to function.

Speaker Connections
1. Verify that the amplifier is powered down. Do not connect
the RJ45 conector of the VSE2 at this point.
2. Strip back 1/8” of the insulation from each conductor of the
speaker wire. Twist and verify that there are no frayed ends.
3. Remove the AMPLIFIER and SPEAKER connectors from
the volume control. Connect the L+, L-, R+, R- conductors
from the amplifier to the appropriate terminal on the
AMPLIFIER connector. Make sure to maintain proper +/-
polarity!
4. Connect the wires from the speakers to the appropriate
terminals on the SPEAKER connetor, again ensuring proper
+/- polarity.
5. Replace the AMPLIFIER and SPEAKER connectors.

INSTALLATION MANUAL
RJ45 Connections
1. Use ELAN C45P pre-terminated RJ45 cables or crimp your
own using the ELAN standard color code and pin-out shown
below.
2. Consult the provided diagrams for specific Cat-5 wiring
requirements for stand-alone or ELAN system operation.
3. Once proper connections are made at the head-end, plug the
RJ45 connector into the jack on the rear of the VSE2.
4. Install the unit in the wall using the provided screws.
Be careful not to place tension on the Cat-5 cable.
5. Test and adjust/program features and levels as described
later in this manual.
