Changer.
2. Connect one end of the RS-232 serial cable into Communication Port number 1, on the back of your FireBall.
3. Connect the other end of the RS-232 serial cable into the “RS-232C” port on the back of your changer.
4. Locate the stereo RCA audio patch cable that came with your changer.
5. Connect one end of the RCA audio cable into the Analog In jacks number 1 on the back of your FireBall
