INSTALLATION MANUAL

Introduction

The ELAN VSOS High Power Stereo Volume Control w/

Override is a twelve-step stereo Volume Control with Variable

Impedance Match settings. The VMOS is a High Power mono

Volume control w/ Override conforming to the same speciﬁca-

tions (except stereo capability). This Volume Control is designed

to connect speakers to ampliﬁers with power ratings up to 100

Watts RMS. Based on proven technology, the VSOS/VMOS

provides a perfect solution when using multiple speakers in high

powered multi-room applications or when basic volume func-

tions are needed with a receiver or ampliﬁer.

Features

• High Power 100 Watts RMS Per Channel

• 1X/2X/4X/8X VSOS

• 2X/4X/8X/16X VMOS

• ELAN’s Patented Volume Control Override

• Limited Lifetime Warranty

• Twelve-Position Volume Steps

• Decora®Styling

• ELAN Quality

• 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.

ELAN HOME SYSTEMS INSTALLATION MANUAL

Rough-In

The VSOS/VMOS will ﬁt into the majority of single-gang boxes.

This Volume Control should not be mounted in the same rough-

in box as primary or mains volt devices, i.e. 110v, 240v--this can

cause undesirable noise in the speakers. High-wattage light

dimmers can also cause noise issues.

ALWAYS CHECK LOCAL BUILDING AND

FIRE CODES FOR LOW-VOLTAGE

DEVICE INSTALLATION AND WIRING

REQUIREMENTS.

IN RETROFIT APPLICATIONS, ALWAYS

CHECK FOR OBSTRUCTIONS SUCH AS

PIPES, CONDUIT, OR ELECTRICAL WIR-

ING BEFORE CUTTING DRYWALL.

ELAN HOME SYSTEMS

INSTALLATION MANUAL

Wiring

Wiring for the VSOS/VMOS consists of speaker wire and CAT5

(if using an ELAN Communications device such as a COM2 or

MAC24). The VSOS/VMOS can accommodate from 14 to 24

gauge speaker wire. Typical installations will use 16 or 18 gauge

stranded copper wire, while longer runs (greater than 80 feet)

should use 14 gauge wires. CAT5 cable should be used for

systems using ELAN’s Volume Control Override features. In-wall

runs should utilize twisted pair wiring. Please consult local build-

ing codes before attempting in-wall wire runs.

DO NOT REVERSE THE AMPLIFIER IN-

PUT AND SPEAKER OUTPUT CONNEC-

TIONS! THIS CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE

TO EQUIPMENT AND/OR PROPERTY.

Impedance Match Settings

Switch settings on the VSOS/VMOS determine the Impedance

Match settings. See diagram for position of Override Jumpers.

Switch position depends on three things:

1. The minimum impedance rating of the amplifier being

used.

2. The number of speakers being connected to the

amplifier channel.

3. The nominal impedance of the speakers being utilized.

Once the above information has been determined, use the fol-

lowing equations to determine the correct Impedance Match set-

ting for each speciﬁc application. Two equations are necessary:

Impedance Rating of Speakers

# of Speakers Connected to Amp Channel

Minimum Impedance Rating of Amp

8 Ohm Speaker

4 Speakers = 2 Ohm System Impedance

8 Ohm Stable Amp

2 Ohm System Impedance = 4 X Switch

ELAN HOME SYSTEMS INSTALLATION MANUAL

Impedance Match Switches

Most speakers are rated at 4, 6, or 8 ohms. If connecting

speakers of different impedances to an amplifier, an average

impedance must be determined; i.e. one pair of 4 ohm speakers

is the equivalent of 2 pair of 8 ohm speakers. All 6 ohm speak-

ers should be entered into the equation as 4 ohm speakers. All

volume controls connected to an amplifier channel should have

the same Impedance Match setting.

Never create settings that cause the ampliﬁer to see an imped-

ance below its minimum impedance rating as this can cause

damage to the ampliﬁer.

Page & Doorbell Level Adjustment

When utilizing ELAN’s Page and Doorbell features, it will be

necessary to adjust the Page & Doorbell Volume level. Locate

the Page & Doorbell Volume jumpers as shown on the diagram

below. Each jumper MUST be set to the same position or dam-

age to the unit could occur. Test the Page and Doorbell functions

and monitor the audio levels. Adjust shunts higher to increase

Page & Doorbell volume, adjust lower to reduce volume.
