Below, we assume that you are connecting 2 computers. Should you have more than 2 computers, it is still best to start with 2 and add the others one by one once the system is working – this makes troubleshooting easier if you run into problems. For 2 computers, you will need 2 digital audio cables, one in each direction:
Procedure
- Use the first digital audio cable to connect the digital output of computer 1 to the digital input of computer 2.
- Use the other cable to connect the digital output of computer 2 to the digital input of computer 1.
If a card has more than one set of inputs and outputs, choose whichever one that suits you – for simplicity usually the first set is best.
