PS3
The AX 360 can connect to any game console that supports a fiber optic or digital coaxial audio port.
For example, connecting with an Xbox 360 you will need to have the High Definition cable accessory.
This cable connects directly into the back of the
Xbox 360 and has a digital Fiber Optic port located on the cable housing. This is the same connection for the original Xbox (See Diagram A). Connecting to a
Playstation II, just plug the fiber optic cable directly into the Playstation (See Diagram B).
Connecting the microphone to your
Xbox 360™ (for Xbox Live®)
Option 2
Connecting the AX 360 to a DVD player or audio receiver is easily achieved through either the digital optic or coaxial port. Diagram A shows connecting via the digital coaxial. Diagram B shows connecting via the digital optic port. The AX 360 audio controller has is a selector switch that must be positioned to either optic or coaxial depending on which connection you use.
Connecting to your
“self-powered” 5.1
Speaker System
T o hear other players during Xbox Live communication, you will need to make changes within the Xbox
360 dashboard. While running an Xbox game, press the Xbox Guide button (the X button is located in the center of your controller) to access your Xbox Live
Settings. (Half-page screen with profile information will appear.) Select “Personal Settings” and press the “A” button on your controller. Then select “Voice” from the menu and press “A”. On the Voice screen, select “play through both” for voice output selection.
If you have difficulties hearing the voices of other players on XBox Live, you can adjust the voice volume by turning up the “center” channel. If you continue to have issues, you can adjust the in-game sound effects and music levels to a desired volume.
Option 1 - connecting through digital optic/coaxial port
If your computer has a fiber optic or digital coaxial port, then the AX 360 can be connected directly to the computer. Both optic and coaxial are digital so it does not matter which cable you use.
Option 2 - connecting through the G9 adapter
AX 360 can be used with 5.1 output sound card. Use the G9 adapter to connect as shown above in option
2. The G9 adapter plugs into the back of the sound card. The mini-jacks on the G9 have labels indicating the following:
•
•
Pink: Mic (Microphone Port)
Green: Front (Front Channels)
•
•
Black: Rear (Rear Channels)
Orange: C/S (Center channel and Subwoofer)
The AX 360 audio controller includes analog 5.1 outputs. Through these outputs you can connect to a 5.1 speaker system that is “self-powered”, meaning that the speaker system has its own amplification. Connect the speakers accordingly per the description:
• Front = Front speakers
• Surround = Rear Surround speakers
• CTR/SUB = Center Channel / Sub woofer speakers
