4—Setting Up and Basic Operations

Connect a PS/2 Mouse and PS/2 ASCII Keyboard
A mouse and ASCII keyboard can make the operation of the VS-2480 even easier. The
VS-2480 supports the use of a PS/2-type mouse and PS/2 keyboard. A PS/2 mouse is
included with your VS-2480. A PS/2 keyboard must be purchased separately.
Many of the VS-2480’s operations can be performed using a mouse instead of the
VS-2480’s top-panel controls, as described on Page 68. You can also perform some
important operations and navigate the VS-2480 using a connected ASCII keyboard
(Page 69).
Connect the included mouse to the rear-panel PS/2 MOUSE jack. Connect your
keyboard to the PS/2 KEYBOARD jack.
Connect a VGA Monitor
Certain information that’s shown on the VS-2480’s built-in display is also sent through
its VGA output to a connected color VGA monitor acting as your Info Display (monitor
purchased separately). The Info Display lets you view this information in a large-easy-
to-read format.
You can use any standard VGA display that has a refresh rate from 60-75 Hz. Connect
your monitor’s DB-15-type VGA cable to the VS-2480’s rear-panel VGA OUT jack.
Connect Monitors or Headphones
The connections you’ll need to make depend on how you’ll be listening to the VS-2480:
• If you’re going to be listening to the VS-2480 through DS-90A or DS-50A monitors,
you can connect the VS-2480’s COAXIAL OUT or its OPTICAL OUT to the
monitors’ COAXIAL or OPTICAL DIGITAL INPUT. Make sure the DS-90A/DS-50A
Digital Input Select Switch is set to the type of digital connection you’ve chosen to
use, and that the Input Select Switch is set to DIGITAL INPUT.
See your DS-90A or
DS-50A Owner’s Manual for more information.
• If you’re using any other type of monitors, connect the VS-2480’s ANALOG MULTI
OUTPUTs 7 and 8 to the left and right inputs, respectively, of your speaker system.
• If you’re using headphones, connect them to the PHONES 1 or 2 jack. You can use
two sets of headphones—with each plugged into its own jack—if you wish.
Connect All Other Devices
Connect any other devices to the appropriate VS-2480 jack or connector. If you’re
unsure which jack or connector to use, consult the device’s documentation.
You may need to activate your ASCII keyboard. See the keyboard settings on Page 64.
See “Using the VGA Info Display” on Page 70 for an introduction to the Info Display.
When using one of the VS-2480’s DIGITAL OUTs for monitoring, you’ll need to
configure them as described in “If You’re Using DS-90A or DS-50A Monitors” on
Page 75.
