[. . . ] Normally there are two S/PDIF outputs as shown, one for RCA connector, the most common one used for consumer audio products, and the other for optical connector with better audio quality. Same as outputs, you can also connect RCA or optical audio products to input connectors on the module and have the voice or music come out from your computer. However, you must have a S/PDIF supported speaker/amplifier/decoder with S/PDIF digital input/output to connect to the S/PDIF digital input/output to make the most out of this function.

On the strength of the innovative design of AC'97 CODEC, you're able to use standard line-jacks for surround audio output without connecting any external module. To apply this function, you have to install the audio driver in the Bonus Pack CD as well as an audio application supporting 5. 1 Channel. Picture below represents the standard location of all speakers in 5. 1 Channel sound tracks. Please connect the plug of your front speakers to the green "Speaker out" port, rear speakers' plug to the blue "Line in" port and both of the center and subwoofer speakers to the red "MIC in" port. 23 Connecting Front Audio If the housing is designed with an audio port on the front panel, you'll be able to connect onboard audio to front panel through this connector. By the way, please remove the jumper cap from the Front Audio Connector before you connect the cable. Do not remove this yellow jumper cap if your housing doesn't have an audio port on the front panel.

R GND GND L CD-IN Connector 25 Connecting AUX_IN This connector is used to connect MPEG Audio cable from MPEG card to onboard sound. R GND GND L AUX-IN Connector 26 Connecting Case Open The "CASE OPEN" header provides chassis intrusion-monitoring function. To make this function work, you have to enable it in the system BIOS, connect this header to a sensor somewhere on the chassis. So, whenever the sensor is triggered by lights or by the opening of the chassis, the system will beep to inform you. Please be informed that this useful function only applies to advanced chassis; you may purchase an extra sensor, attach it on your chassis and make a good use of this function. Pin 1 1 Sensor GND Chassis Intrusion Connector 27 Connecting COM2 This motherboard provides two serial ports. One of them is on back panel connector, and the other is on the left of board below FDD connector. With proper cable, you can connect it to the back panel of chassis.

For Microphone 29 LED Indication LED indication including Standby LED and AGP LED are AOpen's considerate designs that aim at providing you friendly system information. STBY LED will light up when power is provided to the motherboard, giving you a convenient indication check the system power status in circumstances such as power on/off, stand-by mode and RAM power status during Suspend to RAM mode. AGP LED aims to protect your motherboard from being damaged by over voltage of AGP card. When AGP Protection Technology is implemented, this motherboard will automatically detect the voltage of AGP card and prevent your chipsets from being burnt out. Please note that if you install an AGP card with 3. 3V, which is not supported by SiS 760GX chipset, the AGP LED on the motherboard will light up to warn you the possible damage of the exceeding voltage.
