Front Panel Audio Control
When front panel headphones are
plugged in, the back panel audio output
is disabled. This is done through the FP
Audio header (Audio FP). If the front
panel interface card is not connected to
the front panel audio header, jumpers
should be installed on pin pairs 1-2,
5-6, and 9-10 of the Audio FP header.
If these jumpers are not installed, the
back panel line out connector will be
disabled, and pin 1 of the microphone
in will be left fl oating, which can lead
to excessive back panel microphone
noise and crosstalk. See the table at
right for pin defi nitions.
