3301690 CPU Card Appendix D D External AC’97 Audio CODEC 156
3301690 CPU Card D.1 Introduction The audio functionalities of the 3301690 CPU card can be implemented using a separately purchased audio module, the AC-KIT08R-R10. The audio kit is powered by a Realtek ALC655, which is a 16-bit, full duplex AC’97 2.3 compatible audio CODEC with 48KHz sampling rate. The audio kit functionalities are interfaced through three (3) phone jack connectors and two (2) pin headers including: 1. A LINE input shared with surround output 2.
3301690 CPU Card Figure D-1: Audio Functionalities via the Audio Kit D.
3301690 CPU Card The audio kit comes with a PCI slot bracket for the installation into a PC case or rackmount chassis. Connect the 10-pin header to the 3301570’s AUDIO1 header as shown in Figure E-1, and if necessary, connect the CDIN1 and AUXIN1 to optical drives or other audio sources, e.g., an MPEG card, using a 4-pin cable. Note that depending on the devices you connect to, the phone jacks have different functions with different audio installation modes (2 channel or 5.1 channel modes). D.
3301690 CPU Card D.4 Sound Effect Configuration After installing the audio CODEC driver, you should be able to use the multi-channel audio features now. Click the audio icon from the Notification Area from system task bar (see Figure D-5). The shortcut to the configuration utility is also available through the Sound Effect Manager icon in the Control Panel (Figure D-4).
3301690 CPU Card D.5 Sound Effect You may select a pre-configured sound environment setting with the preset equalizer settings. You may also load an equalizer setting or make a new equalizer setting using the “Load EQ Setting” and “Save Preset” button. (See Figure D-7) Figure D-6: Setting Sound Effects D.6 Environment Simulation This is the default screen whenever the configuration utility is opened. You may select different sound environment modes by a single click on the Environment pull-down list.

Connect your speakers to the corresponding phonejacks. It is recommended you write down your configuration, power off the system, and then complete the physical connections.
3301690 CPU Card The audio configuration window in Figure D-11 allows you to test each connected speaker to see if your 4-channel or 6-channel audio operates properly. If any speaker malfunctions, you should then check the cabling or replace the malfunctioning parts. Select each specific speaker to test its functionality. The speaker you select will be highlighted and sound should be generated. NOTE: 1.
3301690 CPU Card D.12 Connector Sensing Figure D-12: Connector Sensing Realtek ALC655 supports Jack Sensing functionality. If an audio device is plugged into the wrong connector, a warning message will display informing users to correct the physical connections. Click the Start button in Figure D-12 to start the sensing. Please remember to close all running audio-related programs before executing the sensing operation. The EZ-Connection screen in Figure D-13 shows the result of sensing test.
3301690 CPU Card Figure D-13: EX Connection The “Audio Connector” column shows the settings used in the “Speaker Configuration” window.
