Setting up your Logitech® X-540 Speakers

Important: For your safety, set up the system before plugging it into a power source.

1. Before attaching the cables to the subwoofer, position the two front satellite speakers on either side of your computer monitor about the same distance from each other as from you. Angle them to face you. Place the wired remote control within easy reach. Place the rear left and right satellite speakers behind you and about the same distance apart as the front speakers. Position the front center channel speaker on top of your monitor or on your desk in between your monitor and keyboard.

For best sound quality, place the subwoofer on the oor beneath your desk. Be sure to maintain at least 6 inches of spacing around the subwoofer to allow for adequate ventilation.

2. Insert the colored plug from each satellite speaker into the corresponding colored jacks on the back of the subwoofer.

3. A. If you have a PC and a:

• 6, 7 or 8 channel (5.1, 6.1 or 7.1) sound card: Connect all 3 colored plugs from the audio input cable to

the color-coded jacks on the sound card.

1. If jacks on your soundcard are not color coded, plug the audio input as follows:

• green to front L/R (or #1)

• black to rear L/R (or #2)

• orange to center / sub (or #3)

• 4-channel sound card: Connect the green plug from the audio input cable to your sound card’s front

jack and the black plug to your sound card’s rear jack. Do not use the orange plug.

• 2-channel sound card: Connect the green plug from the audio input cable to the “line out” jack on

your sound card. Do not use the black or orange plugs. With a 2-channel sound card you will not hear sound from the rear speakers unless you activate Matrix mode.

B. If you have a video game console:

• Connect the green plug from the audio input cable to

the green jack on the video game adapter cable.

• Connect the red and white RCA audio cables from your

video game console to the RCA audio jacks on the video game adapter cable.

• Turn on Matrix mode to get surround sound from your video game console.

4. Plug the subwoofer’s power cord into an electrical outlet.

Then, swivel the base back until it is touching the back of the LCD monitor and tighten the hinge screw for a secure t.
