S/PDIF out:
The S/PDIF out jacks can transmit audio signals to an external decoder for decoding to get the best
audio quality. Install the S/PDIF out cable if you want to output S/PDIF digital audio signals to an external
decoder.
A. Installing the S/PDIF Out Cable:
(Note) The actual location of the SPDIF Out connector may differ by model.
Step 1:
First, attach the connector at the end of the cable to the SPDIF_O
header on your motherboard.
Pin 1 (the red wire) of the S/PDIF out cable must align
with pin 1 of the SPDIF_O header.
Incorrect connection may render the device unusable or
even result in damage to the device.
Step 2:
Secure the metal bracket to the chassis back panel with a
screw.
