Making Connections
Connection Notes
•Turn off the RP-U100 and all equip- ment to be connected before making any connections.
•Refer to the owner’s manuals supplied with your other equipment for more information.
Connecting your PC
If your PC has a USB port, connect it to the RP-U100’s USB port using the supplied USB cable, as shown below. A single USB connection is all that’s required to listen to audio from your PC on the RP-U100, feed audio from an external source connected to the RP-U100 to your PC, and control the RP-U100 remotely from your PC, using the supplied RP-U100 Application Software.
Note: Make sure that the USB cable is disconnected from the RP-U100 before installing the RP-U100 Application Software. See page 16 for more information.

If your PC doesn’t have a USB port, you can still connect it to the RP-U100 using the analog and digital inputs and outputs, but cannot use the RP-U100 Application Software. Audio from your PC can be fed to the RP-U100 using any of following connectors: USB (as explained above), DIGITAL PC COAX IN, DIGITAL PC OPT IN, or ANALOG PC IN.
To play DVD-Video discs encoded with Dolby Digital, your computer must have a DVD-ROM drive and DVD-Video decoder board, which should be connected to the RP-U100 via the DIGITAL PC COAX IN or DIGITAL PC OPT IN.
Note: The DIGITAL PC OPT IN has priority over the DIGITAL PC COAX IN, so if you connect to both inputs, the signal received at the DIGITAL PC OPT IN is used.
