CREATIVE AWE64 - Manual (Page 14)

Setting Up Your Audio Card 1-5
6. Align your card’s 16-bit slot
connector with the expansion
slot and gently lower the card
into the free slot as shown.
7. Secure the card to the
expansion slot with the screw
that you removed from the
metal plate.
8. Connect powered speakers or an external amplifier to the Line
Out jacks. Figure 1-5 shows you how to connect various
devices.
The joystick connector on your audio card is identical to that on
a standard PC game control adapter or game I/O connector.
You can connect any analog joystick with a 15-pin D-shell
connector. It also works well with any application that is
compatible with the standard PC joystick. To use two
joysticks, you need a Y-cable splitter.
9. Replace your system’s cover.
10. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet. Switch on the
system.
