CD - no CD audio
In order to hear audio output from the CD-ROM drive, one of two connections 
must be made: 

1) Run an external cable from the headphone output of the CD-ROM drive to 
   the AUX input of the Tropez

or

2) Run an internal cable from the back of the CD-ROM drive to the 4-pin 
   connector (J1) on the Tropez card.  This is a stereo input on the Tropez 
   card, so it will consist of a Left Pin, a Right Pin, and two Ground Pins. 
   Shown below are the proper pin-outs for the J1 connector:

   If this diagram does not look right, highlight the diagram and change 
   the font to the "Courier New" True Type font at 10 pt size.

   It is only necessary for one of the two grounds to be connected to the 
   CD-ROM drive.  If you have a cable connected to the Tropez already and 
   want to verify that the correct signal is going to the correct pin, use 
   the following colors as a guide:

              Red  = Right Signal
      White/Green  = Left Signal
     Black/Silver  = Ground

You can also contact Pacific Interconnections at 800-706-0510 to order a 
custom cable.
