VTX1000 Audio in and out

[Anonymous]

As per spec sheet there is an RCA in and out mentioned for the VTX1000. Can I use the VTX1000 to dial into a telephone conference, use the input from a PA to send master mix to the telephone conference and use the the output for the PA so any spoken word during the telephone conference can be heard through the PA. Does an input or output connection automatically mute the mics and built-in speakers or does this need to be set seperately on the unit? I am asking as I 'd like to avoid telephone hybrids as these recently caused a few issues. If VTX1000 doesnt do this I'd like to know which product could do this?

Thansk a lot for your feedback, Steffen

Hello SNEBEL,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

The VTX User Guide => here <= has a pretty good description of what you can do and how you do it.

• Aux Input
  Besides its built-in microphones and extension microphones, the SoundStation VTX 1000 can also accept audio input
  from external sources, such as an external wireless microphone or microphone mixer. (See “Using the Extension Microphones,”
  pg. 22, for one option, and see “Connection Diagram,” pg. 31, for installation.) To use these optional devices, the Aux Input setting must reflect the device connected. If no external source is in use, you can turn Aux Input Off, if you prefer.
  
  
• Aux Output
  The SoundStation VTX 1000 combines sound from you and your remote party(s), and can output that sound to a subwoofer,
  or to another external audio device, such as a tape recorder or P.A. (public address) system. (See “Using the VTX Subwoofer,”
  pg. 22, for one option, and see “Connection Diagram,” pg. 31, for installation.) For these optional devices
  to work appropriately, the Aux Output setting must reflect whether a subwoofer or other device is connected.
