4. Introduction
The audio converter is an ideal expansion for TVs, home cinemas
and game consoles. Frequently, these devices do not have all of the
connections that are required. Most often, there is a digital audio
output for connecting to a surround sound system. However, if you
want to connect to a standard stereo system or active speakers, the
required connections are often not available.
The audio converter lets you tap into the digital sound output using
the coaxial output or the optical output. The device converts the
digital sound and then outputs it to an analogue stereo sound
output (2 x RCA).
The converter is suitable for digital sound signals at sampling rates
up to 96 kHz and resolutions up to
24 bits, and can thus be used in almost any situation.

5. Getting started and operation

Note
• Always refer to the operating instructions for all the devices
you are connecting.
• Lay all cables so that they do not pose a tripping hazard.
• Do not bend or crush the cable.
Before installation, ensure that all devices to be connected are
switched off.
• Connect a Toslink cable (not included) to the 'Toslink' audio
input (1) or an RCA cable (not included) to the 'Coaxial' audio
input (2) and to your playback device (for example, TV, Blu-ray
player, game console).
• Now connect another RCA cable (2 RCA – 2 RCA, not included)
to the 'R/L' audio output (5) and to your audio device (for
example, ampli er, active speaker).
Note
The white RCA plug connects to the LEFT audio output, the red
RCA plug to the RIGHT audio output.
