Part 3

1. Standard Connection

①

Connect the blue jack of the connectin card to the blue jack of the sound card

with the blue stereo cable. If the sound card jacks do not have color distinction,

find the jack with “inward arrow” icon.

②

If “Line In” of the soundcard can not be located, contact the sound card

manufacturer for more information.

③

The tape sound flows out of the blue jack of the connection cand and flows into

the blue jack of the sound card. Then the sound card delivers this sound to the

speaker or store it on the PC

④

Using with the TV capture car

The TV capture card works like the Plusdeck2c by sending the analog sound to

Line In jack of the sound card. Since two cables need to be connected to one

input jack, a Y jack can be used. But with a Y jack, one of the input sound levels

could be reduced due to an impedance difference. If this happens, use an audio

splitter instead.

Connecting to Soundcard

2. Advanced connection

①

The advanced connection is useful when a headphone set is used. The

headphone sound volume can be adjusted by the volume control located in the

front panel of the Plusdeck2c. Since the headphone is a two channel system,

output sounds from rear and center speakers can still be heard if you are using a

multichannel system.

②

Connection to use a headphone set

A. Move the speaker cable connected to the green jack(Line Out)of the sound

card to the black jack of the connection card. (If a multi channel speaker setup is

used, other speaker cables except the one to the green jack of the sound card

should remain where they are.)

card with the green stereo cable.
