Connecting the AX360 to a DVD player or audio receiver is easily achieved through either the digital optic or coaxial port. Diagram A shows connecting via the digital coaxial. Diagram B shows connecting via the digital optic port. The AX360 audio controller has is a selector switch that must be positioned to either optic or coaxial depending on which connection you use.
The AX360 can connect to any game console that supports a fiber optic or digital coaxial audio port. For example, connecting with an Xbox 360 you will need to have the High Definition cable accessory. This cable connects directly into the back of the Xbox 360 and has a digital Fiber Optic port located on the cable housing. This is the same connection for the original Xbox (See Diagram A). Connecting to a Playstation II, just plug the fiber optic cable directly into the Playstation (See Diagram B).
Option 1 - connecting through digital optic/coaxial port
If your computer has a fiber optic or digital coaxial port, then the AX360 can be connected directly to the computer. Both optic and coaxial are digital so it does not matter which cable you use.
Option 2 - connecting through the G9 adapter
AX360 can be used with 5.1 output sound card. Use
the G9 adapter to connect as shown above in option
2. The G9 adapter plugs into the back of the sound card. The mini-jacks on the G9 have labels indicating the following:
Pink: Mic (Microphone Port)• Green: Front (Front Channels)• Black: Rear (Rear Channels)• Orange: C/S (Center channel and Subwoofer)•
The AX360 audio controller includes analog 5.1 outputs. Through these outputs you can connect to a 5.1 speaker system that is “self-powered”, meaning that the speaker system has its own amplification. Connect the speakers accordingly per the description:
• Front=Frontspeakers
• Surround=RearSurroundspeakers
• CTR/SUB=CenterChannel/Subwoofer

To hear other players during Xbox Live communica-
tion, you will need to make changes within the Xbox 360 dashboard. While running an Xbox game, press the Xbox Guide button (the X button is located in the center of your controller) to access your Xbox Live Settings. (Half-page screen with profile information will appear.) Select “Personal Settings” and press the “A” button on your controller. Then select “Voice” from the menu and press “A”. On the Voice screen, select “play through both” for voice output selection. If you have difficulties hearing the voices of other players on XBox Live, you can adjust the voice volume by turning up the “center” channel. If you continue to have issues, you can adjust the in-game sound effects and music levels to a desired volume.
Make Sure to remove the protective caps from your optical cable before use. Failure to do so could result in poor or no sound output, and possibly damage electronic devices.
*If you use the AX360 blue digital audio controller on a computer and want to use the microphone, additional hardware will be needed to plug the microphone into the standard analog jack of your computer.
**Dolby Digital surround sound will only be played back by the AX360 headset when a “Dolby Digital” signal is received by our audio controller, indicated by a blue light at location bm.
