4. Instrucciones de configuración
Follow these steps to connect and set up your AUTOUTLET EFU152 converter:
- Connect the Optical Input: Connect one end of the provided optical cable to the digital optical audio output (SPDIF/Toslink) of your source device (e.g., TV, DVD player, game console). Connect the other end to the optical input on the AUTOUTLET EFU152 converter.
- Connect the Analog Outputs: Connect the RCA (red and white) cables from the converter to the corresponding analog audio input ports on your amplifier, stereo receiver, or active speakers. Alternatively, connect a 3.5mm audio cable from the converter's 3.5mm output to headphones or speakers.
- Conecte la electricidad: Connect the USB power cable to the converter's power input port and the other end to a USB power source (e.g., a TV's USB port, a USB wall adapter, or a computer's USB port). A 5V 1A power adapter (not included) is recommended for stable operation.
- Configure Source Device Audio Output: It is crucial to set your source device's digital audio output format to PCM (modulación de código de pulso). The converter does not support 5.1 channel signals like Dolby AC3 or DTS. Refer to your source device's manual for specific audio settings.
Image: A diagram illustrating how to connect the optical output from devices like HDTVs, TV Boxes, Game Consoles, and DVD/Blu-Ray players to the DAC converter, which then outputs to analog devices like wireless headsets, Bose speakers, or computer speakers. Important note about setting TV audio format to PCM is also shown.
Example PCM Setting Paths (may vary by device):
- General: Home → System Settings → Picture and Sound → Sound Settings → Digital audio output → PCM
- Televisor Samsung: Settings → Sound → Expert settings → Audio format → PCM
- Televisor LG: Menu → All settings → Sound output → Optical → Digital sound output → PCM
5. Instrucciones de funcionamiento
Once properly connected and configured, the AUTOUTLET EFU152 converter operates automatically. It is a plug-and-play device that requires no additional software or drivers.
- Asegúrese de que todos los cables estén conectados de forma segura.
- Verify your source device's audio output is set to PCM.
- The blue indicator light on the converter will illuminate when powered on and receiving a valid digital audio signal.
- Adjust the volume directly on your connected analog audio device (amplifier, headphones, speakers). The converter does not have volume control.

- Problem: The sound volume is not adjustable from the converter.
Solución: The AUTOUTLET EFU152 converter does not have its own volume control. Volume must be adjusted directly on your connected analog output device (e.g., amplifier, headphones, speakers). - Problem: Intermittent noises or poor sound quality.
Solución:- Ensure the USB power cable is connected to a stable 5V 1A power adapter. Insufficient power can cause instability.
- Check that the RCA or 3.5mm audio cables are fully and securely connected to both the converter and your output device.
- Test with different cables if possible to rule out faulty cables.
