Internal ports and connectors

The positions of the internal ports and connectors are shown on the Cover. Additional information on some ports is also provided here.

Hard disk connection

An ultra ATA/66 or ultra ATA/100 hard disk must be connected with a cable especially designed for the ultra ATA/66 or ultra ATA/100 mode.

Connect the end of the cable marked with blue to the mainboard.

Audio front panel

If you want to use the internal connection for the audio front panel for the front side of the system, then proceed as follows:

Remove all plug-in jumpers from the audio front panel connection.

Connect the cable for the audio front panel.

i

If you connect audio devices on both the front and the back of the system, you can only

use the connections Line out and Microphone once each.

If you have connected audio devices to both Line out connections, only the connection on the front of the system is active.

If you have connected audio devices to both Microphone connections, only the connection on the back of the system is active.

2, 4 or 6-channel audio mode via analogue audio channels

The mainboard supports a 6-channel audio output via the analogue audio channels (2 Front, 2 Rear, 1 Centre and 1 Subwoofer channel). This makes it possible to connect 4 or 6 loudspeakers, and therefore to achieve a better surround-sound effect.

Drivers

A corresponding driver must be installed for the 2, 4 or 6-channel audio mode. If the drive is not installed yet, proceed as described in the chapter "Add-on modules / Upgrading", in the section "Drivers".

Connecting loudspeakers

The number of loudspeakers connected should match the number of audio channels you select in the driver software.
