6. CD-ROM Digital Audio Input
If your CD-ROM is equipped with a 2-pin digital audio output (usually named “D” for signal
and “G” for ground), you can bypass all DAC circuitry of the CD-ROM and import the CD
digital audio signal directly to the WT2496 via this connector. To use the CD-ROM’s digital
audio as your digital input source, select CD-ROM as the Digital Input selection on the
WT2496 Control Panel.
When you connect CD-ROM to monitor an audio CD through the Waveterminal 2496,
make sure to match the signal pin to the corresponding signal pin. For example, the left pin
of the 2-pin header connector is a signal pin, so connect it to the letter “D” from the CD-ROM
digital output port. Some CD-ROM models simply do not support the digital out port for
CD audio. If you cannot hear any sound from the CD-Rom after making the proper settings,
you may need to ask to the CD-ROM manufacturer if the Digital Output port is in fact
activated.
