Wires Wires And More Wires

[kaiweiler]

Hey everyone, sorry for this lol but I am wondering where some of the wires or connecters go into my mobo from my case, the online guide in the pinned topid didn't help to much for this. I have 7 small one-pin connectors (sorry dont know the technical name) that are labelled:
mic data
mic vcc
gnd
ear r (x2)
ear l (x2)
i am aware that they all have to do with audio, but i do not know where on my mobo to plug them in
I have a Abit NF7-S mobo
Thanks
Kai

I'm glad to hear it. Was that because you didn't connect up the audio sockets on the front of the case?

[kaiweiler]

it&#39;s quite obvious you guys arent in the mood to help, so yeah any mods wanna close this thread, go for it

[Mr. Elmo]

what do u mean we not in the mood to help? its obvious you cant follow direction so whats the point....smurf posted the image to hlep you out

do you know what an audio header is? is should be label on your mobo

[Evil Gemini]

If the mobo has onboard audio, you dont need them. Its only if you want to enable the front audio jacks.

They can be a great pain in the ass so if you cant figure it out just leave it and just use the normal way of using the sound card.

cuz last time when i post a jpg, vb123 and some other ppl couldnt see it...just a red x

[kaiweiler]

yeah i can see that, and i have that pic in the manual that came with the mobo, but i dont know how to interpret it really. i have 7 connectors, and 4 have headphone stuff on the, the pic says nothing as far as headphones go, unless some of those letters are code for headphones...
i just dont understand the pic i guess
if anyone could explain it that would be great
PS sorry for my remark earlier, i&#39;m sorry

[Mr. Elmo]

w/ almost all case...its usually a guess and checked method for front panel....mine front panel doesnt come anyhwere close matching w/ the mobo label for the pins....just gotta guess which ones go where and check it

[cwctv]

mic data = 1
mic vcc = 2
gnd = 4
ear r (x2) = 5 and 6 on the cables its normanly marked + / - stick + to 5
ear l (x2) = 9 and 10 on the cables its normanly marked + / - stick + to 9

The bottom 11,12,13 and 14 are for what its say&#39;s SPDIF only (digital sound),its the 2 pin cable on MOST Cd/Cdrw&#39;s these days
11 and 12 goes from here to the Cd/Cdrw.
13 and 14 to the front panel (if you have it on the front).

See http://klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=92045 then maybe "clocker" half way down.



S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) is a standard audio transfer file format. It is usually found on digital audio equipment such as a DAT machine or audio processing device.

thanks&#33;
in pins 5+6 and 9+10 there are small orange "jumpers", is it okay to take them out to be replaced by the ear r and ear l plugs??

[cwctv]

Sorry just come on again(think I am glued to this machine),YES they are only there to able the rear port don&#39;t forget you will lose them it&#39;s either the rear or front not both.
I would mark in the manual where they go in case you want to reverse this plus get the rear one&#39;s working before you swap that way you know at least you have sound.

[kazaaliterock]

cwctv can you help me?
yes the connectin is the front panel mic and headphone port.

heres a pic of the manuel

http://server4.uploadit.org/files/211103-ypsmsldkfg;lsdkfgh.gif


and the wires on the pins said.

Mic in L
Mic in R
Grn
L out
R out
Grn

[cwctv]

Can you check again by any chance never seen mic Left and Right before don&#39;t forget NOT all cases will match the m/boards pins exactly normaly these are blocks not single cables.

Sorry been eslewhere just come back and I will have to go to bed soon up at 6 UK time.

1 = Mic in L (live)
2 = Audio Grn(ground)
3 = Mic in R(pulse if I recall)
4 = Aud vcc is power to what well I don&#39;t know.
5 = Aud FPOUT R front right speaker
6 = Aud RET R is rear right speaker
7 = NC not connected
8 = Key sometimes a pin is missing so you can&#39;t put the block on wrong
9 = Aud FPOUT L is front left speaker
10 = Aud RET L is rear left speaker

So your board as at least a four speaker setup but the case only is for 2 speakers me I would use the panel for my rear speakers and you would maybe need to join both Grn&#39;s together on pin 2.

[kaiweiler]

Alright cwctv, that answered my question perfectly&#33;
Thanks, i didn&#39;t realise it was front or back, but I couldn&#39;t have audio from both, wierd...
Thanks
Kai
