1.2 AUDIO OUTPUT CONNECTIONS

Once the XDS receiver is locked to the Westwood One carrier you can verify audio
functionality as follows:
A. Verify audio reception
Initially the XDS receiver headphone output and all the audio ports are programmed to
receive the Test Channel.
Connect a set of headphones and verify you can hear the Test Channel.
To manually program the XDS receiver headphone to output the Test Channel:
o At the main screen with the Cumulus Media Networks logo, press the SET
key, then the left or right arrows to reach Audio Ports. Press SET.
o Press the left or right arrows to reach Headphones. Press SET.
o Press the left or right arrows to reach Program. Press SET.
o Use the up and down arrows to find Test Channel. Press SET.
B. Verify audio ports
Your new XDS receiver is delivered with a parts kit including four mating DB-9
connectors with shells.
The analog audio outputs for your services appear at the four DB-9 connectors on
the rear panel. Wiring pinouts are the same as on the older Starguide receivers:
AUDIO OUTPUT – DB9M
Rule: Each DB-9 connector carries one radio program stream, either mono or
stereo. If the program is mono, the same audio appears on the left and right pin
pairs. In most cases, the left and right sides of a stereo channel are no longer
used by Westwood One to carry unrelated mono programs. Other networks and
distributors may use different rules.
