SoundCard Considerations
If you want speakerphone functions along with the ability to record sound or .WAV
files through the sound card at the same time, you need:
l
two stereo PC microphones
l
one stereo male-to-male patch cord
l
one sound card and optional speakers
To connect to a 3rd party sound card, perform the following steps:
1. Obtain a stereo male-to-male patch cord (can be purchased at a local PC
retail store).
2. Place one end of a stereo male-to-male patch cord into the “SPKR or LINE
OUT” jack of the ZDXV and the other end into the “LINE IN “ jack of the sound
card. This lets you to hear the activity of the modem whether it is originating or
answering a call or playing a recorded message using the bundled PhoneTools
software.
3. Place the two stereo microphones (do not use mono microphones) far
enough apart from each other to eliminate feedback (e.g., one on each side of
the monitor). Feedback will only occur if the microphones are too close to
each other. Make sure speakers are amplified with power source being either
a battery or AC outlet.
4. Place the microphone and speakers far enough apart from each other to
eliminate feedback. Plug the connector of both microphones into the “MIC IN”
jack of both the SoundCard and the ZDXV.
