If you have not installed the PSA2 drivers yet, you should do so now. Insert the Installation CD that is included
in the package into the CD ROM drive. The operating system should detect the CD and automatically start the
installation process. Follow the on screen instructions to complete the installation process.
After the installation is complete, you may be asked to reboot the computer. After reboot, the Sound Agent icon
will appear in the Notification Area of the Windows Taskbar. See Figure 1. Please note that the number and
types of icons in the Notification Area varies from computer to computer.

The following sections provide a detailed description of the PSA2 features.

PSA2 icon in the Taskbar Notification Area (normally the lower right hand corner of the screen) will indicate that
it is unavailable with a red "void" mark. See Figure 2.
If the monitor is on and connected to the PC USB Port, there should be no void mark on the PSA2 icon, and
you can double click the icon to launch the interface. See Figure 3.
