PC / Mac Setup
When used as a PC/Mac gaming headset, the PX22 functions as an Amplified USB Stereo Headset. When connected to a PC or Mac, the PX22 appears in Windows and Mac operating systems as "TURTLE BEACH PX22." This allows the PX22 microphone to be assigned for chat use in game software as a USB audio device.
The green 3.5mm plug is used for sending the stereo game signal from the computer sound card to the PX22 amplifier, allowing game sounds, music and other sounds to be heard from the computer.
Note: Both plugs must be connected. Set system volume to maximum and then adjust system volume via the game volume wheel.
