Toslink And Coaxial S/Pdif Audio Input Connections - Asus Essence One Series User Manual

NOTES:
• The PC's previous audio output device should now be temporarily
disabled and the Essence One Series becomes the default audio playback
device for the PC/NB. This can be confirmed in the Control Panel's
Sounds, Speech and Audio Devices properties window under the Volume
tab.
• If you wish to disconnect your Essence One Series and return to using
your previous soundcard, etc., simply disconnect it or switch off the
power on the front panel. If the PC fails to disable the Essence One Series
and automatically re-enable your default soundcard, you can manually
disable the Essence One Series in the hardware device manager. To do
this, navigate to the Device Manager (click Start — Control Panel —
(Vista: Performance and Maintenance —) System — Hardware— Device
Manager in Windows XP). Scroll down the device manager window
and expand the heading Sound, Video and Game Controllers to display
a list of the connected devices. The Essence One Series will be listed
as "ASUS Essence One Series". Click on this description to highlight in
blue and then click on the Disable icon at the top of the window. A
warning message will appear: "Disabling this device will cause it to stop
functioning. Do you really want to disable it?" Click Yes to disable the
Essence One Series. The previous audio playback device will now be re-
instated by Windows.
