1.Connect your display device to the 15-pin HD female video output VGA connector on the rear of the P/2 DA2 WM/EC. See figure 2-3.

2.For audio output, refer to the section “Connecting audio output” and connect the audio output cable to the 3.5 mm captive screw connector on the rear of the P/2 DA2 WM/EC.

3.Connect the power input cable to the rear power input connector of the P/2 DA2 WM/EC.

4.Connect the computer’s video cable to the 15-pin HD female Input cable on the distribution amplifier’s faceplate.

5.If a local monitor is being used, connect the monitor to the 15-pin HD female buffered local monitor output on the faceplate.

6.For audio input, connect the input device into the front faceplate’s 3.5 mm female audio jack.

Connecting audio output

Before connecting audio output, determine whether your audio system is unbalanced or balanced. Then, follow the instructions below to connect unbalanced audio, or the instructions for “Balanced audio” to connect balanced audio.

Wiring the audio incorrectly may damage the audio output circuits.

Unbalanced audio

To attach the P/2 DA2 WM/EC to an unbalanced audio system, do the following:

1.Attach the audio cable to an unbalanced speaker input connector (tip and sleeve).
