The Volume Control
The PCWorks FourPointSurround
system comes with a separate
wired Volume Control, designed to
be positioned close at hand and
affixed with the semipermanent
mounting strip.
Each plug has either an “F” or
an “R” molded into it. One pair of
plugs connects to the audio inputs
on the back of the subwoofer
(SUB). The other pair connects to
the sound card line outputs
(LINE). Connect the two pairs of
signal plugs before affixing the
Volume Control (see diagram at
right). Connect the “F” LINE plug
to the front stereo line output
minijack of your sound card.
Connect the “R” LINE plug to the
rear or “surround” line output
minijack of your sound card.
Connect the “F” SUB plug to the
“Front” minijack input on the
Subwoofer. Connect the “R” SUB
plug to the Rear minijack input on
the Subwoofer (see diagram H).
At this point you may now turn
the power switch “ON”.
If you have a stereo soundcard
(one without a rear stereo minijack
line output), connect the “F” LINE
plug to the stereo line output
minijack of your soundcard (see
diagram I). Leave the “R” LINE
plug unconnected. Connect the “F” SUB plug to the “Front” mini-
jack input on the subwoofer. Leave
the “R” LINE plug unconnected. If you upgrade to a four-channel
sound card, connect both “F” and
“R” LINE and SUB plugs to the
soundcard and subwoofer and
enjoy full surround sound.
Note: When only one of the two
stereo inputs on the subwoofer is
used (either “Front” or “Rear”), the
stereo signal will be reproduced by
both the front and rear pairs of
satellites.
