FAQ
Q1. What do you need to use Raspberry Pi X6000-7.1CH Expansion Board?
(1) A Raspberry Pi board
(2) A DC 5V 4A Power Supply, please refer to 5V 4A Power Supply
(3) A case for X6000(optional)
Q2. Why there is just output 1 on the board have sound?
(1) This board is 7.1 channel surround sound output, so the sound output is depended by your audio file. Because output 1 is for left/right channel (please refer to the below picture). And most music file just have left/right channel. So if your audio file is MP3 file, there just output 1 have sound.
(2) This board is ideal for Home Theater Systems, if you play the video or watch the movies, other channel will work. You could download a mkv file to have a test. Please refer to the Software Configuration to download the test file.
