Figure 2-3. SoundCard Connections {ZDXV only}
To connect to a 3rd party sound card, perform the following steps:
1. Obtain a stereo male-to-male patch cord (which can be purchased at
a local PC retail store).
2. Place one end of a stereo male-to-male patch cord into the SPKR or
LINE OUT jack of the ZDXV and the other end into the LINE IN  jack
of the sound card. This lets you to hear the activity of the modem
whether it is originating or answering a call or playing a recorded message
using the bundled Trio software.
3. Place the two stereo microphones (do not use mono microphones) far
enough apart from each other to eliminate feedback (e.g., one on each
side of the monitor). Feedback will only occur if the microphones are too
close to each other. Make sure speakers are amplified with power source
being either a battery or AC outlet.
4. Place the microphone and speakers far enough apart from each other
to eliminate feedback. Plug the connector of both microphones into the
MIC IN jack of both the SoundCard and the ZDXV.
