4.0 CONNECTING THE HARDWARE
Please study the panel drawings below and become familiar with the signal input,
outputs, power requirements/inputs plus any controls present.
Front Panel (Input) Rear Panel (Output)
Connect audio inputs from the source equipment to the R and L RCA connectors
on the 1T-AP-216’s front panel. Next, connect an optical or coaxial cable (or
both) between the appropriate connector(s) on the rear panel of the 1T-AP-216
and the destination equipment.
Connect the AC adapter to the 1T-AP-216, then to a working AC power socket.
(Note that the unit will begin to function as soon as the power is available. There
is no “On/Off” switch.)
Lastly, turn on both the source and the destination equipment.
Once these steps have been completed, the unit will convert Analog Stereo
Audio (R&L Channels) to either Optical or Coaxial Stereo Digital Audio. It will
perform this action to either output individually or to both Outputs at the same
time.
5.0 OPERATING THE UNIT
Other than connecting the power and the cables to the source and destination
equipment, the only other action needed is to determine if you should insert
audio delay into the signal path.
If there is apparent loss of lip sync (i.e. if words are heard before the subject’s
lips move), turn on the 150ms audio delay by sliding the Audio Delay switch to
the right. Conversely, if the subject’s lips move before a sound is heard, make
certain the Audio Delay switch is turned off (fully positioned to the left).

6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
In the event that the unit appears to be non-functional, make certain that the AC
power outlet is active and that the AC adapter is fully plugged into the 1T-AP-216
and the connector has been turned 90 degrees Clockwise to lock it in place.
Next, substitute any cables in use with known good cables to remove that
variable.
After trying the above suggestions should the problem still persist, contact your
dealer for additional suggestions before contacting TV One. Should the dealer’s
technical personnel be unable to assist you, contact TV One via our support
website: http://tvone.crmdesk.com. Create a technical support request on the
site and our support team will respond within a short period of time.
