Introduction
About the MVC 121
The Extron MVC 121 is an audio mixer and volume controller in
the Extron VersaTools
product line that mixes up to two mic
inputs (mono, balanced/unbalanced) with one main line level
input (stereo, balanced/unbalanced). Each mic input and the
main line level input have their own gain control knobs, and the
mixed output also features a volume control knob.
Volume adjustment interval varies with the speed of knob
rotation, i.e., turning the knob slowly increments the volume in
smaller steps (0.5 dB), and turning the knob quickly increments
the volume in larger steps (2.5 dB).
Two sets of outputs include a fixed output that is independent
from volume control, and a variable output that is volume
adjustable. All inputs and outputs are via 3.5 mm captive screw
connectors, and the volume settings are indicated by four LEDs.
The MVC offers RS-232 control of input gain/attenuation, and
control of output volume. RS-232 control also includes the
capability to turn the inputs and output on/off. The latest
firmware can be uploaded using RS-232 and the Extron control
program for Windows
®
.
Features
Furniture, rack, and projector mountability — The Extron
MVC 121 can be mounted under a desk or other
furniture, or mounted on a projector lift with optional
brackets. Alternatively, it can be rack mounted on an
optional rack shelf.
Microphone inputs — Built-in switchable microphone amplifier
with 48 V phantom power and separate level setting for
each microphone.
Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — The volume
settings for the inputs and the output can be protected
from unauthorized changes by enabling the executive
mode, although the volume settings can still be displayed
by the LEDs when the volume control knobs are turned.
Stand-alone volume controller — The MVC 121 can operate as
a volume controller for the main line level input with
both mic inputs turned off.
RS-232 control — Allows remote control of the MVC using the
Extron Simple Instruction Set
(SIS
), the Extron control
software for Windows, or other remote control system.

Installation and Operation
Mounting the MVC 121
The one rack unit high, quarter rack wide MVC can be set on a
table, mounted on a rack shelf, mounted under a desk or
tabletop, or mounted on a projector bracket.
Tabletop use
Each MVC comes with rubber feet (not installed). For tabletop
use, attach a self-adhesive rubber foot to each corner of the
bottom of the unit.
UL rack mounting guidelines
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines
pertain to the safe installation of the MVC 121 in a rack.
1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in
a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,
install the MVC in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C)
specified by Extron.
2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that
the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack
so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the
supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit
overloading might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable
grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular
attention to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

MVC 121 • Installation and Operation
Rack mounting
For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet.
Mount the MVC on a VersaTools
®
19" 1U rack shelf (Extron
RSF 123, part #60-190-20; Extron RSB 123, part #60-604-20), or a
standard Universal 1U or Basic rack shelf (Extron RSU 129, part
#60-190-01; Extron RSB 129 or #60-604-01). On the standard rack
shelf, the MVC mounts in one of four locations to the rear of the
rack or in one of four locations to the front of the rack.
1. If rubber feet were previously installed on the bottom of
the MVC, remove them.
2. Mount the MVC on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16"
screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure the MVC
to the shelf.

Power connector — Connect the included 12 VDC external
power supply into the 2-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector.
Be careful to observe the correct polarity.

SECTION A–A
CAUTION
When connecting the power supply, voltage
polarity is extremely important. Applying power
with incorrect voltage polarity could damage the
power supply and the MVC 121. Identify the
power cord negative (ground) lead by the ridges on
the side of the cord or a black heat shrink wrapping
around it.
The two power cord wires must be kept separate
while the power supply is plugged in. Remove
power before wiring.
To verify the polarity before connection, check the no load
power supply output with a voltmeter.
CAUTION
The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires is
important. The ideal length is 5/16” (7 mm).
Longer bare wires can short together. Shorter
wires are not as secure in the direct insertion
connectors and could be pulled out.

Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the
extended tail of the connector.
Your MVC 121 may have shipped with a blue captive
screw connector. This blue connector can be plugged
into either a blue or an orange power receptacle.
The ideal length of exposed (stripped) copper wire
for the blue connector is 3/16" (5 mm).
The blue connector does not have the extended tail or the
included tie-wrap.
Do not tin the power supply leads before installing in the
direct insertion connector. Tinned wires are not as
secure in the connectors and could be pulled out.
After making any adjustments to the MVC 121, either
via the front panel controls, SIS commands, or the
Extron Audio Products Control Program, wait at least
10 seconds after making those changes before
disconnecting power to the MVC 121. Failure to
observe the 10-second timeout may result in those
adjustments not being saved.

Mic input DIP switchMic 1 and Mic 2 inputs are controlled
via a DIP switch.
1. Set the mic input Level according to the microphone type:
a. Wireless mic: Set the mic’s DIP
switch to the Line position (On).
b. Wired mic: Set the mic’s DIP switch
to the Mic position (Off).
2. Set the 48V phantom power position according to
microphone type:
a. Condenser mic: Set the mic’s DIP switch to the On
position.
b. Dynamic mic: Set the mic’s DIP switch to the Off
position.
Condenser microphones require power. Dynamic
microphones do not require power.
When a mic’s input level DIP switch is set to “line”
level, that input’s 48V phantom power is disabled
regardless of the “48V” phantom power DIP switch
setting of that input.
